Review of Extreme Days (2001) by Alexr. — 12 Jan 2006

Something most people here dont understand is that this is not a movie to compete with a typcial hollywood romantic comedy, or even a slapstick comedy, or evento compete in hollywood itself, its on the genre of extreme sports movies where what you want to see is cool scenes with good music, cool characters and maybe a plot line to accompany it It competes with californian sports movies (just outside of hollywood).

However, the movie wasnt too good.. Its corny at times, some scenes are longer than they should, the directing of the actors is often weak, the dialogue and even the jokes could use lots of polishing; even the sports scenes lacked excitement, and I expected a better soundtrack (thats what I loved about the truth videos, plus I think they were funnier).

Even the christian themes were bland and mostly not memorable or transcendental, not saying that it should have had strong christian themes if that wasnt the intent. Still, its a fun goof to enjoy. Plus, it gets better by the second half, with better acting, funnier jokes, and better music.

I paid less than three bucks for it and it was well worth it. I didnt like forefront music to be in front of the production, and I didnt quite like the toby mac theme song (or any toby mac) or audio adrenaline or newsboys, but oh well.

. So, it can be fun, but definately not great. Im not sure if I would recommend it to non christian friends though... but who knows.
