Great Footage, Incredible Extra Features, June 12, 2002
This review is from: Search for the Holey Trail: Mountain Biking (DVD)
This is an absolutely fantastic DVD! Many people refer to this flick as "Kranked IV" because of its place within the lineup of the previous three Kranked films. Anyone who is familiar with those episodes will love this one as well. It is chock full of incredible freestyle mountain biking clips that leave you in awe of the riders and in anticipation of the next limit-pushing feat. But what's even more stunning about these clips is the settings that they are shot against. This DVD takes you to Australia, Morocco, Vancouver, France, Switzerland, Mexico, Spain, and the United States. Its like watching 8 Discovery Channel documentaries with mountain biking gurus as your guides. I could do without the cheesy interludes where they try to tie together the scenes with some kind of plot. But the few minutes that are wasted on these scenes are more than compensated for in the incredible amount of bonus features that are packed onto this DVD. You get extra scenes, intereviews with nearly all of the bikers, music videos, a shortened Director's narrative, and even trailers of Kranked II and III which, by themselves, are worth their weight in gold. All in all, this DVD goes above and beyond what you might expect to find on a special interest DVD. If you are a mountain biking enthusiast, buy this DVD and enjoy every minute of it. I know I did. Have Fun!

Smooth smooth smooth, April 7, 2002
This review is from: Search for the Holey Trail: Mountain Biking (DVD)
Kranked 4 is one of the smoothest Mountain Bike productions I have seen. Shot on location around the world it keeps rolling from one sick line to another (some videos show the same line/stunt way to much). The animation between some of the scenes is amusing. You have to give the production team points for their sense of humour, twisted though it may be. Furthermore, the sound track is not heavy metal, which puts it into a higher class than most other bike videos.
In all a very well rounded, well produced production. Keep your eyes out for more from Radical Films.
