It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

a fun movie great for the family but with some really rad skate scenes actually kinda exciting to watch so weird it was good the special effects were pretty shoddy but wat can u expect its a kids movie i actually was beginning to hate the main antagonist & was rooting for sammy you can tell that the vert scenes are obvously done by a more expirenced skater,any way give it a watch but id recommend renting it first that way you wont be wasting any money,still in my opinion it was agreat movie but this is coming from a kid the same age as the character reminds me of when i first went to a skate park a bad experience

I've heard a lot of people say this movie was cheesy or corny or whatever. It's a kid's movie! It's gonna be corny at some parts! I saw this movie first time aged eight. I still love it! It's totally awesome. Totally unrealistic, but movies aren't supposed to be realistic. I do think though, that you have to like skateboarding to like this movie. Call it inspiration to a kid who can't skate. It's a cool movie though, and if you're not over...say, 12-13, you should definitely watch it. Heck, watch it anyway! What kid doesn't love to dream the impossible plausible? I know I'll get a lot of criticism for this comment, but if you're not looking for an award winning movie with a way mature plot, then The Skateboard Kid 2 is definitely a good movie. Way better than Skateboard Kid 1, kind of like an early version of Airborne if you've seen that. See it if you haven't. Call me on it if you regret it.

After seeing the first skateboard kid, which was abominable, I bought this movie. First off, it was almost the exact same plot as the first skateboard kid, but had no connection to the first and the acting was even worse. Everything from the music to the special effects shots sucked and I found myself having to use mind altering substances just to tolerate this worthless piece of celluloid. At least in the first one the "Skateboard Kid" actually knew how to skateboard. In this film, the kid only can skate with the guidance of his board. Other than that, he never had skated in his life. This movie should be banned all across the world and all the actors shunned from Hollywood. Please don't ever buy or rent this film.

It's a kid's movie I know. So if it's corny and junk like that, I shouldn't get all fussy about it 'cause it's just meant to entertain some kids, right? I think that even for little kids, this movie is far too cheesy.The Skateboard Kid is this little kid who sends away for a skateboard. It turns out to be a magic skateboard, one that let's him fly. He's able to show up the neighborhood gang of skating big shots--kids who are just a little older than him. The skateboard let's him do things that he couldn't do by himself. So, even though he is a novice, he is able to accomplish things that only the pro's could do. This leads to an opportunity to compete. And, if you know corny kids movie, you know that even though some magic or some kind of special mentor helped him to get to one point, it would be up to him to get the rest of the way. Except, that might be plausible if the kid was actually doing tricks that would seem fitting for his expertise, even if it was a little m more than you would assume could be done. Here, in this balogna movie, this kid starts out on some homemade stick and attempt to jump a quarter pipe launch ramp. Some people can't even balance themselves on a regular board, nevermind a piece of chopped up lumber with no kicktails. Then, when he gets the magic board, Stardust, it allows him to do pro-material, tearing up half-pipes and everything. And, at the end, when the Stardust board doesn't work anymore, and he's back to a regular board, he doesn't just have confidence to skate well in front of the older, more aggressive kids. No way, now he can skate just like a pro. Maybe the movie should've been entitled--how to skate like a pro without ever really trying. It's hard to fish out that building-character premise that is so cliche of most kids movies due to such an implausible feat. I know it's supposed to be about a magic skateboard and all of that, but for crying out loud. Aside from that point that annoyed me most about this movie, I guess the story and acting are no more corny than most other kids movies. The kids stink it up a little bit, especially the bully kid. Overall, I'd say that this movie is just cheese city.
