4 out of 5 stars Skateboarding classic.......2007-03-11

If you're searching for this movie, you know how awesomely 80s it is. While I can hardly say I watch it for its strong acting and captivating story, its a great flashback to when skateboarders wheren't the popular kids and the goal wasn't to make it to the X-games. Sweet movie to watch while drinking some beers with your friends.

5 out of 5 stars Tony Hawk.......2007-01-19

If for nothing else, watch this movie for the skating. Tony Hawk.

3 out of 5 stars "B" Movie At It's Best!.......2006-08-11

The skate scenes alone merrit this movie great. In it's day it was a great skater movie. With new and improved DVD's, and videos on skating it has lost a little. But in the "B" movie world it's ranked up there at the top of the list with the rest. Some plot lines are ridiculous, but just to check out the underground bedroom, the scenes with a young Tony Hawk, and the skateboard we all wanted...C'mon admit it! Rent it, Burn it, love it! "B" movie greatness!

3 out of 5 stars Bad movie, great skating.......2005-09-06

Everyone who likes this movie likes it for the skating or has/had a crush on Christian Slater. It's possible to fit in both categories, too, of course.

Gleaming the Cube has a weak plot that fails to engage and the quality of the acting varies widely from actor to actor and from scene to scene. The clunky direction doesn't do much to improve things, although there is some amazing editing work.

Christian Slater was new to being a "star" at the time of filming; for Slater fans, this is definitely worth watching to measure his growth as an actor.

For skateboarding fans, there's no point in bothering to follow the plot--just sit back and watch some super hot skating and you'll enjoy it. Tony Hawk's skating in this movie is legendary for good reason but all the skaters turn in excellent performances.

5 out of 5 stars Still as wonderful as the first time!.......2005-07-04

I love this movie! As a kid I used to watch this over and over and be in absolute awe of these skateboarders. Okay, I admit having a crush on Christian Slater as well... But, I am assuming it was more than that because I watched it 5 billion & 1 times or so it seemed. I had no clue they had brought out the DVD until it was too late. I had to buy it at a higher cost used. (Although it looked brand new.) It was well worth it, but now everyone wants to know how I got it. I wish the company would re-release this DVD again so that more people can buy it. C'mon! You get to see Tony Hawke when he was this gangly young teenager!!
