The Ride

Enjoyed it a lot, interesting to see John's story & I was impressed by Ludacris - it probably could of benefitted a lot from a bit more budget but they worked well with what they had to still provide some good BMX action

You think changing his adoptive mom to a black woman would make a realistic story, even though, it's a true story & his adoptive mom was white - some people...

Sure it's a bit formulaic but that didn't effect how engaging and absorbing it is . If you like movies like this it not , it certainly delivers and without cringe or eye rolling . The cast fits beautifully and the story itself is inspiring and captivating . I was all there for it and I am here for it still !

Found this movie on Amazon Prime, remembered seeing the trailer a while back and figured I'd give a chance. Glad I did! It's was good, I enjoyed it a lot, it had moments where I laughed, smiled, and even got emotional. It's a good movie to watch atleast once. I recommend it if you haven't come across it yet.

I had no expectations of this movie just thought I would enjoy it as a long time BMX racer and freestyle rider from back in the day. We get some great riding action which is awesome but what is even better is we get to see a great story that shows us where you start doesn't have to define where you finish in this life. There is nothing I don't like about this movie, the casting the cinematography the riding is all top notch. This is a must watch in my opinion even if you are not into BMX. What you will take away from this movie has no price.

This film really pulls you in and you really route for the characters.. well paced and a balanced .. could not recommend this enough..
