5.0 out of 5 stars RAD movie, November 28, 2002

By	C. Robinson (BRIDGEPORT, CT United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Rad (DVD)

RAD is the ultimate BMX movie. It is a movie about the underdog struggling to get to the top, or in Cru Jones case, the ability to prove himself. The action on bicycles in this movie started a freestyle frenzy all over the world. Guy's like Eddie Fiola and Martin Aparijo played a significant part in the film. When I first saw this movie I begged my parents to buy me a freestyle bike to do the tricks I saw in the film, that was in 86 and I still consider BMX to be an important part of my life, thanks to this film. Bmx did not fade out, look at DAve Mirra, if anything it has certainly grew. This movie is hard to find and it is something I treasure very much. I strongly encourage you to express your interest in this film and the release of it on DVD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Greatest BMX Racing Movie Ever!, May 10, 2003

By	Alan Pounds "Minnesota Hip-Hop Fiend" (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This movie opened up a whole new world to me as a kid. I love Watching It to see all the old bikes and riders I once knew of as a teen. Those were good times. The childhood memory will stay with me always.
