Grind Description
If the world needs even more proof that
skateboarding is a mainstream institution as opposed to an
underground phenomenon, GRIND does the trick. Casey La Scala's
lighthearted adventure introduces three friends who have just
graduated from high school. Eric (Mike Vogel) is determined to
make it as a professional skater. He convinces the college-bound
Dustin (Adam Brody) and wisecracking Matt (Vince Vieluf) to join
him on the road for a summer of contests, with the hopes of
getting sponsored by superstar Jimmy Wilson (Jason London). Once
they manage to recruit the smooth-talking Sweet Lou (Joey Kern)
and his trusty van, the foursome hits the road. Things don't go as
planned, however, to the point where Eric considers giving up. But
that's when Jamie (Jennifer Morrison) enters the picture. Sweet,
pretty, and a radical skater herself, Jamie gives Eric the
opportunity to strut his stuff at one of the summer's most heated
competitions. Never taking itself too seriously, GRIND is a
pleasant ensemble comedy that features inspired performances from
its up and coming cast. It is also filled with enough cameos to
keep film fanatics on their toes (Randy Quaid, Tom Green, Bobcat
Goldthwait).
"...When the movie focuses on daredevil
acrobatics executed on ramps, in parking lots and in empty
swimming pools and synchronized to a crunching rap and metal
soundtrack, it delivers a crude kinetic charge..."
"...Most of the time it's all very
believable, demonstrating the grace and athleticism of a sport
that only recently has gotten its due..."
