At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Set in the extreme world of competitive American Supercross Leagues, Supercross has high drama,hot hunks, hot chicks and hot stunts.It's an excellent action packed adventure. The use of the Supercross motor biking sport is perfect for the fast pace of the film and led to a lot of amazing visual stunts that really take your breath away.The high action was complimented by the moving storyline, which is acted out brilliantly by the talented and particularly good looking young cast.I throughly enjoyed the film it really was a non stop high energy ride!Even if you are not into motorbiking after watching this film you will love it!
Supercross is an action packed 81 minute movie about motorcross racing. Before i saw the movie, i had no idea what that was - for those in the same position, it's Motorbike racing with a LOT of jumps. Not something that would normally appeal to me, but the shots used and the effects gave all the action sequences a real "in the race" feeling. This was important, since for a lot of the film it felt like the expansion of the characters had been cut out for the action, but was probably a good move. The cameos from professional racers made the film that bit more credible, and the lifestyle of young, enthusiastic extreme sports fans was portrayed with a very realistic touch. The film follows two brothers as they fight their way from being unknown locals, aiming to the top of the profession, and the heady glories of sponsorships. The plot can be cliché, but it isn't aiming for an Oscar. It is made to entertain, and it certainly does that.
Being a motocross racer myself, i must say that the footage was pretty cool. I thought it lame how they should show facial expressions in the helmets of the riders. I was confused about the "NAMI" company. I hate how Hollywood tries to create an off-brand that will eventually overthrow Honda or Yamaha. The NAMI bikes were clearly just fancified CRF450's. In the drag race, Tripps bike was supposed to be a cr250r. Then it magically turned into a four-stroke that makes noise like a two-stroke. I hate when some dumb-ass producer attempts to recreate an image of a sport that is just starting to grow. I didn't like how these two clowns just entered a race with nothing after-market except for their slicks. Finally! SOmething thats real! Thanks for a fairly nice looking woman, and a flick that has a plot. But take some note from Disneys "Motocrossed".
I really think much of watching this movie. I only watched it to pass some time up. When the credits started I noticed Sophia Bush and finished it. Thank god I did! Supercross was actually a pretty good movie. It only did a drop at the theaters because not much publicity. But it is so underrated for a sport movie. Most sport movies are public within time of a release date. Anyway, Steve Howey, Mike Vogel, Sophia Bush and Cameron Richardson star in this Dramatic movie. When you reach 30 minutes you are mostly glued to the script and screen. Supercross is a great movie, aimed for mostly a younger audience, but everyone will probably like it. I give it two thumbs up and 100 stars out of 10 stars. .bryce.inman.
