Snowboarder (2003)
nice snowboarding movie
15 February 2010
this one is not bad. but not a great one either. i think its nice. maybe even good.

first thing nice: some kind of moderate plot, there is even a message in it, i was surprised!!! second... whats made really good: sound. mmm sound and.... sound! No, im not talking about the soundtrack. the sound really lets you ride the boards they are riding. its what made me feel some kind of empathy to the characters(what somehow compensates for bad acting), and endure the bad parts of this movie. but then... if you were never snowboarding, then its just sound effects. well... if i was a director and i wanted some realistic sound effects, i would definitively hire the guy that was this films sound recorder. and what else is there. the "love-plot" is just s**t. you could as well cut out those scenes, it makes some part in the movies message, but is too underdeveloped. then you got the great swiss and french mountains, which i cannot judge, since i love them. and then you can see some kind of lifestyle in those regions its nice and contributes to the message, but as said before, is underdeveloped.

this could have been a good movie, but somewhere along the way they messed it up. still, i would watch it, if i haven't seen in yet.

and probably ill watch it again. after all, it is called snowboarder, and if you are a snowboarder, you should watch it.
