Review of Hardflip (2012) by Vegas C — 05 Jun 2012
The movie doesn't market itself as the faith-based film it is but once it becomes apparent, it falls into many of the traps that so many Christian movies do. I've come to wish all of them would have at least one non-Christian on set to coach them on how non-Christian ppl actually act.
They don't make a huge deal out of drinking beers and they don't use not-quite-cuss-words when they get mad or all wear backwards hats and sunglasses. And for that matter, Christians don't actually sit on the beach quoting the Bible or toting pictures of Jesus on their skateboards.
Decent attempt but unfortunately like so many of it's peers of this genre the film ultimately resorts to stereotypes that keep us from ever really having an honest conversation about spirituality.
