In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
The Title, "Supercross" is an excellent title and they couldn't have picked a better one. From beginning to end there is full out, full throttle action. There could have been a little more dialog, but all in all I decided to rate my vote on this movie as an 8 out of 10. This movie reminded me of the life of Ross "Rollerball" Pederson and his brother Aaron Pederson. Anyone that knows Supercross / Motocross would know or would have heard of Ross Pederson. Ross ruled the circuit for a decade, and K.C reminded me of him, having pure skill. Trip reminded me of Aaron Pederson, as he had so much guts. But soon in Aaron's career he had to retire due to breaking both Femurs in his legs. I wonder if this movie was partially inspired by them. There is a lot of action which made this movie good.
This movie was fun. I feel bad for the hardcore Supercross fans though, since a lot of the details on the bikes were really sloppily done. That is the directors or editors part. Do some research before you put that in the movie. Other than that, some have really spoken up about how bad the acting was in this movie. What? Its not Saving Private Ryan, its a sports movie driven mainly by teens and twenty somethings. The two actors Mike Vogel and Steve Howey do a good job playing brothers trying to survive in the sport of supercross. There love interest are equally appealing. It is a fun movie a couple of things left you scratching your head like what happened to the Carlyles father? I will chalk it up to again, bad editing. This movie is on par with its predecessor Winners take all , an equally entertaining supercross flick. Fun if you are young and into the sport. Bad if you are an old man watching it with your young kids or real hardcore supercross fan.
Being a motocross racer myself, i must say that the footage was pretty cool. I thought it lame how they should show facial expressions in the helmets of the riders. I was confused about the "NAMI" company. I hate how Hollywood tries to create an off-brand that will eventually overthrow Honda or Yamaha. The NAMI bikes were clearly just fancified CRF450's. In the drag race, Tripps bike was supposed to be a cr250r. Then it magically turned into a four-stroke that makes noise like a two-stroke. I hate when some dumb-ass producer attempts to recreate an image of a sport that is just starting to grow. I didn't like how these two clowns just entered a race with nothing after-market except for their slicks. Finally! SOmething thats real! Thanks for a fairly nice looking woman, and a flick that has a plot. But take some note from Disneys "Motocrossed".
"Supercross" more than overcomes a slow start. The movie rips into a new dimension of cycling portrayal, combining crispy-clean and spectacular event photography with rich pulsing sound. The highlights of the film "Supercross" have to be the motor-bike photography. The quality only gets better as the action evolves. Everyone into advanced cinematography or cycle racing has to see "Supercross" because the THQ Las Vegas Championship races are worth watching over and over again!!! The closing moments deep and "coloured" mesh of film technique will be best appreciated on a Big Screen.The simple romantic drama is at least worth sitting through, and possibly enjoyed after all. Fresh young talent like Sophia Bush, Cameron Richardson, Ryan Locke, and Channing Tatum grace the screen. Likewise experienced racers David Pingree and Tyler Evans.A variety of music works, especially the opening credit sync and a ballad theme that has a good feel to it."Supecross" is different. The plot is very simple and the dramatic approach asks only that you enjoy what the movie has to offer without asking why.
