Movie Reviews of Gleaming the Cube
Movie Review: Scratched DVD
Summary: 3 Stars
The DVD froze at the end of the movie. We noticed that there was a weird swirl pattern on the DVD which probably caused the problem.Movie Review: Purchase Movie
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought a movie from this vendor. I was dissapointed to say the least. I paid $25 dollars for what looked almost like a bootleg copy of the movie. I only say that bootleg because when I went to put it in my DVD player it couldn't read the format. I had to watch it from my computer because that was the only thing that could read that format. The quality of the DVD was fine, but its really sad when you pay $25 dollars for a DVD that you couldn't get to play on your DVD player.Movie Review: how exactly do you "gleam the cube"?
Summary: 1 Stars
introduction:
How DO you gleam the cube? some unfamiliar with the skateboarding world might just think it's a technical industry term. to think this would be incorrect, as no one-- skateboarder or not --knows what gleaming the cube means, even after watching this movie. the absurdities of this film only begin there.
plot synopsis:
christian slater and professional skateboarding company, et al, skating their way through the underbelly of the san diego vietnamese mafia, trying to avenge the death of slater's adopted vietnamese brother while, by-and-by, slater begins to fall for said deceased brother's girlfriend, whose father is the kingpin, or godfather, of said crime syndicate.
who comes up with this crap?
today:
the success of this movie can only be accredited to the mainstream popularity of "X-treme sports" at the time of the film's original release (mid-eighties), and their unprecedented resurgence in the late nineties, failing to mention the decade in between, which, littered with bankruptcy and drugs, skaters and christian slater alike would like to pretend never happened.
advisory:
we suggest you rent it at the video store, then laugh about the stupid movie you watched as a kid, while hanging out really late with your college friends.
reviewers:
stephen mayer, age 20, watched this movie in '98, dictated the review to emily garrett.
