Movie Reviews of Extreme Rollercoasters
Movie Review: "Extreme (West Coast) Rollercoasters"
Summary: 4 Stars
Acting as a grab bag of sorts, "Extreme Rollercoasters" highlights a multitude of different coaster types found in California as well as Las Vegas. Including interviews with designers, members of ACE (American Coaster Enthusiasts), fans and the like, the DVD is a great look at not only the amount of fun that can be had in west coast parks, but some technical and introspective information concerning how the coasters themselves function.
The amount of physical support that the ride "X" needs is unbelievable!
While I'm a midwesterner with a fondness for Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, I am still a coaster fan at heart. It's very fun to see rides from across the country and watch them be treated with the respect they deserve. The DVD does a good job of hyping rides and parks, but doesn't swoon so much that it becomes "kiss a$$."
I would have prefered the title to reflect the regional feel of the content, considering Cedar Point has been the "rollercoaster capital" for quite some time (and wasn't included in the video), but nevertheless, if you'd like to see some of the most innovative rides the country has to offer, pick up this DVD.
