Product Description
Description
Welcome to the high-intensity, high-octane world of Supercross, the extreme sport where gravity knows no limits. Brothers KC and Trip Carlyle are up-and-coming motorcycle racers with limited opportunities, unlimited potential, and dreams of becoming champions. When KC's big break comes in the form of a lucrative, corporate "factory" sponsorship, the brothers are torn apart, becoming bitter rivals both on and off the track. But when a tragic accident threatens their Supercross dreams, the brothers must cast aside their differences -- and fear itself -- to defy the odds and take the checkered flag!

Ok, well it couldv'e been worse, i guess!,
By S. Vecera "djsteviev@hotmail.com" (Montreal, Quebec Canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Supercross (DVD)
Before we get into my review of the movie and if i liked it or not..let's talk first about the DVD COVER...I know you shouldn't judge a book (or in this case..well you get where i'm going with this)by it's cover but well i will! Let's start with the two main girls in the movie (Sophie Bush, Cameron Richardson), they look completely different in the movie and they never looked that hot in the movie, and i mean never!Second, the best review they could put on their box cover was from a national motorcross Champion himself saying that is was "FULL THROTTLE SUPERCROSS ACTION!"...WOW! I'm definitly sold now! Now about the film, i'm not really into motorcycle stuff but i can basically can get into anything when it has a good flow and storyline, well they had a good flow but the storyline was very weak. Althought the Motorcycle stunts were kinda cool if you care for that stuff! Fast breakdown of the movie...two brothers who really love the sport really wanna make it big, they finally get a chance and one of the brothers (KC) succeeds in getting a sponsor deal while the other (Trip) is pissed off and always whining and thinking that he should've of been the one who got the deal. Your basic rags to riches story based in a sports kinda way! So basically you won't hate the film, you just won't really like it that much...unless of course, your under 20 and love motorcross then well the movie gets five stars! Don't drink and drive!

great stunts(gives a new appreciation of the athletes in this sport)wow!,
By falcon "disdressed12" (canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Supercross (DVD)
this movie is not bad at all.some of the stunts these guys(and girls)do
in Supercross is absolutely astounding.the way they flip in mid air and the heights they can reach.i have a new respect for these people.the stunts were mind blowing,but very realistic,as far as i could tell.there are some hot women in this movie,naturally.the acting is OK and to me,the plot is thin,but that is not the draw for this movie.the real reason to watch this movie,or any of the genre,are the amazing stunts these guys can do.to say they are talented is a huge understatement.i found this movie pretty exciting.it is only during the dramatic scenes that i didn't like it as much.i just wanted to see those stunts.thankfully,that is what most of the movie is.if you're a Supercross fan,you should love this movie.if you're not,you might still really enjoy it.at the very least,you should have a new appreciation for the athletes involved.my vote for "Supercross":4/5

I Feel the Earth Move,
By Lee Armstrong - Published on Amazon.com
While it's not an earthshattering film, "Supercross" does keep you glued to the screen with excellent motorcycle action sequences and some sweet romance. Directed by Steve Boyum who directed "Meet the Deedles," the plot is your basic underdog who wins the race & gets the girl. Steve Howey from "Reba" TV series plays KC Carlyle who is a fairly cautious but talented racer. He impresses the team of a Japanese motorcycle company who take him on. Unfortunately, the head of this played by Robert Patrick only wants KC to be the wingman so his son Rowdy can win the races. When KC pulls ahead and wins a race, he upstages Rowdy and quits the lavishly sponsored team. Trip Carlyle played by Mike Vogel from "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" & "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" may be more talented, but he also takes more chances and lacks the maturity to control himself. In their audition for the sponsored team, he gets into a fist fight with Rowdy, leading to his brother KC being chosen for the big job and relegating Trip to continue his day job cleaning pools. Sophia Bush from TV's "One Tree Hill" plays Zoe, the wealthy law student whose pool KC cleans. She comes to be his steady girl and helps him from time to time like a manager. Cameron Richardson from "The Good Humor Man" plays Piper Cole and becomes attracted to Trip. The romance between Piper & Trip is one of the high points as Trip who is so bold on a bike is a bit slow on the pickup with the ladies. The two seem to connect very sweetly & sincerely on film showing great chemistry. Daryl Hannah was listed as playing the mother in the promo credits, but I didn't recall her being in the movie! The film concludes with KC, now a privateer rather than a sponsored rider, overcoming several obstacles including a biker named Evans who is out to get him to win the crown. While not being classic cinema by any means, "Supercross" is an entertaining night at the theatre that has you rooting for the good guys. You can almost feel the earth move under their bikes. Enjoy!

"Supercross" Motor And Zoom,
By Dougster - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Supercross (DVD)
"Supercross" photography gets the motor running better with each next event. Action is crisp and clear under the stadium lights at the Las Vegas THQ Championship.
An easy-does-it "Southern Cal" lifestyle blends (or not) with the hard knocks of the Supercross circuit. Living takes a backseat all the way to the Vegas racing reveille. Tyler Evans, David Pingree and David Castillo show natural acting talent. Castillo, Joe Bucaro III and other stunt riders take some chances on their bikes. Along with this "Supercross" Directors Cut there are several added Specials. One Feature on the DVD shows interviews with the stunt riders and another gives how the stunts are performed. Most "Supercross" cycling is filmed during gate competition. Director Steve Boyum has made stunts in over sixty movies. Special camera equipment accelerates over lots of yardage with zoom, so this Dolby 5.1 DVD will "bring it" to you here and now with the summersault and lightning sporting theater action of "Supercross." 6 of 7 people found the following review helpful:

"Supercross, The Movie" Magic,
By Douglas T. Tarquinio "Doug Tarquinio" - Published on Amazon.com
There has been a reel misunderstanding here.
"Supercross, The Movie" was never intended to compete with "Gone With The Wind." The magic of this Action Sport dramatic is the tremendous racing footage at the Las Vegas Chanpionship, the combination of docu-drama (Tyler Evans, and other racers show acting talent) and the nostalgic simple romantic twine of certain plot development that has nothing to do with life today. This romantic magic is from a better time. The use of impressionism and split screen during parts of the film was well done. There was some poorly photgraphed scenes in the beginning of the movie. The sound was good. I enjoyed the music soundtrack. The digital audio effects during the races, made "Supercross, The Movie" more extreme than simple realism. The movie needed to be expanded. It seemed incomplete. I think "Supercross, The Movie" will be better understood and appreciated as time goes on. This film tries some things in a way that is seldom done today. That's a good thing. |
