Lords of Dogtown

Director: Catherine Hardwicke
Cast: Heath Ledger, Rebecca De Mornay, John Robinson, Emile Hirsch
Cert: 12

A film about, if it’s about anything, skateboarding in all its manifestations.

It’s not a terrible grippingly interesting film. Unless you’re into skateboarding, of course.

It’s about an activity – sport, pastime, obsession, commercial con that has grown to epic sponsorship proportions and will doubtless eventually win people Olympic medals.

But, it’s not interesting.
Star Rating: 1/5
