A wan attempt to transpose the sports-movie formula onto the extreme-sports scene, Grind achieves extremes only of lameness.

Pretty much a complete waste of time.

Cinematic fecal matter at its best.

If you love skateboarding, feel free to rent Grind, hit the mute button and fast forward through anything that doesn't involve a half-pipe.

It's the sort of movie that makes American Wedding look... subtle by comparison. [T]his summer's notorious bomb Gigli is starting to look better and better.

First-time director Casey La Scala may have taken his fledgling film's title too literally, grinding together borrowed ingredients like a mischievous chef.

Brings Out The Worst Of A Fringe Sport That Fights For Mainstream Acceptance...this Film Fails So Completely In Almost Every Aspect.

Director La Scala can't direct his way out of this can of half-baked beans.

You've seen and heard it before, dude.

Viewing the earthbound sequences in "Grind" is like watching the dialogue portions of pornos. Pity the viewers who catch this one without the benefit of a fast-forward or chapter select button.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Aug 22, 2003

Striving for street cred, I'm positive even skaters will turn their noses up at this.

| Original Score: 1/10 | Aug 22, 2003

They say it takes a certain knowledge of a subject to truly empathize a movie based on it, but I'm guessing it will take more than that to show any sort of genuine interest in a movie like Grind.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 22, 2003

Brody and Vogel anchor the cast, portraying likeable, charismatic dudes with a friendship that is genuine and enduring in spite of their differences.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 21, 2003

Among those rare films that starts at the bottom and burrows downward.

The worst movie of the summer.
