I finally saw lords of dogtown and I wasn't expecting much. I'm glad I was wrong. I enjoyed this movie quite a bit. I think it's interesting to learn about the Z-boys. I know little to nothing about skateboarding. I have a skateboard, but I hardly use it.
That movie had a few unknown actors in it as the main characters. The real guys who these characters were based on appeared in the film too. I thought that was pretty cool. Also, you can never go wrong with Johnny Knoxville and Tony Hawk. Emille Hirsh did a pretty good job here too. I didn't think much of his performance in The Girl Next Door, but here he really shines. And, it's about time we see Rebecca De Mornay in movies again.
Heath Ledger was the biggest surprise to me. I didn't even recognize him until after the movie was over. I hadn't paid much attention to the beginning credits. Heath Ledger is definitely one of the best character actors for the new generation. I think he will definitely have a long career in acting.
Although the movie has some intense scenes, I would say that it is basically a feel good film. I hope the director isn't upset that I think that way about it :) Anyway, I give a thumbs up to "Lords of Dogtown"
