Skates na Pista da Morte

I absolutely love this movie, no doubt about it!

10/10. A great display of tacky, bad acting, bad storyline, eighties brilliance at it's best.

Drop me a line if you the same way. There has to be more than just myself out there who love this kind of trash.

This was a decent movie...if you were ever into skateboarding then this movie is a must see...it's good for the time frame it was created in(late 80's)..it also has a lot of big time pro skaters in it Mike Vallely,Tony Hawk,Rod Mullin,Lance Mountain,Mike McGill,Natas Kaupus,and Eric Dressen.....I think the only big actor is Christian Slater...so this is obviously a "skater oriented" movie.. check it out...its worth the money if you can handle the "old skool" skating and a little cheesy storyline drama..

What a sweet movie. This movie just about wraps up the "rad" pop culture of the 1980's, and puts it into one film. The skateboarding is incredible, and it features Tony Hawk who developed into the #1 skater in the world. While this movie might not be realistic, it made me laugh all the way through. The best scene by far involves Tony Hawk and a Pizza Hut truck. Enjoy this movie and remember the 80's.

i remember watching this film when i was much younger and i loved it to bits as i was an aspiring skater at the time, i used to really like the first bit with the theme tune and them skating down the airstrip. i saw it again a short while ago and i will definitely say it hasn't lost any of it's character, i probably like it still because i liked it so much when i was younger but it is definitely a top film, the skating is superb even if it is on those old school boards and the bit where slater is skating down the massive hill is awesome. a true skating classic.

Gleaming the Cube is the only half-way decent skating movie around. As far as cinematic art goes I don't know how I'd rank it, but as there aren't any others like it we'll just have to settle. The tricks are good, being that they're over a decade old and all and I have no real problem with that. After all, we can't progress if we don't know our history.
