IMDb user comments by staceyedwards0 from United States:

I saw the premier of this movie opening night of the Malibu Film Festival. I went to the screening with no expectations and left completely impressed and moved by the documentary. This film takes you through the skateboarding era unlike any other. The story is about fame and fortune, friendships, and the ups and downs in life. It is set in Southern California and is told through the eyes of Christian and how close friends and the public perceived him. Furthermore, the documentary was well shot and edited with a great score throughout. You will be educated, entertained, and you will laugh and cry. While watching this film, you will feel like you personally know Christian. I highly recommend it.
