Radheyan Simonpillai NOW Toronto The film may be shameless self-promotion and navel-gazing (it's sponsored by Vans), but the interviews are so candid and introspective that it's worthwhile. Rated: 3/5 Dec 20, 2012 Full Review Bruce DeMara Toronto Star An exhaustive - no, make that exhausting - look at a team of young skateboarders ... Rated: 2/4 Nov 29, 2012 Full Review Betsy Sharkey Los Angeles Times Like a high school reunion, filled with affectionate memories of an earlier, more innocent, time. Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 8, 2012 Full Review Mike Scott Times-Picayune Aside from a lack of journalistic integrity, it's a well-assembled film, one that capitalizes on the charisma of its interview subjects. Rated: 3/5 Jan 11, 2013 Full Review Chris Barsanti PopMatters makes its nostalgia seem earned... Rated: 7/10 Nov 19, 2012 Full Review Chase Whale ScreenAnarchy You don't need to be knee-deep or even care about skateboarding to fall in love with this film. Bones Brigade: The Autobiography is a masterpiece. Rated: A+ Sep 27, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member This is a must for anyone who grew up with the Tony Hawk games. Telling the tale behind every poster-worthy skater - from the iconic Tony Hawk, to the poetically beautiful Rodney Mullen - and how the very skating industry went from boom to bust in just a few short years. For non skaters, this is a great insight into a social subculture, and for skaters this is essential viewing Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Stacy Peralta makes another killer skateboarding documentary about the team of all-star skaters he hand-picked to form the legendary Bones Brigade, who dominated the '80s and went on to unforeseen heights. Peralta knows the territory well and crafts a great story about complex characters who helped to define one of the most influential "scenes" of our generation. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member A little disjointed, where I wasn't sure exactly what they were talking about, or if they had moved onto another topic. Also some very hard to hear and understand interviews, I had to turn on the subtitles to read what they were saying. Overall, a very good story of the beginning of the skateboard industry, with input from all the best and most influential people. Watched on Netflix at home with Josh, June 26, 2015. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a doc, if the subject interests you then you will enjoy it. It is well done. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Mullen is some kid of zen master Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Skating is totally cool everything else totally sux Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
