[.ca] Snowboard Academy

terrible:
What a peice of crap. This movie is terrible. The only decent actor in it is the lady who works the proshop, who doesnt really even do anything in the movie. Terrible plot, some stuff doesnt even make sense, like the french guy and the stoner guy, both would have been better just thrown out of the movie. But I will admit that there were som really funny random jokes in there, but there were only 2 or 3 of those, and the rest was terrible. Also, whoever said the snowboard sequences were really cool, has clearly never seen a real snowboard video. It might have been alright boarding when it was originally filmed apporvimately 10 years ago, but compared to todays snowboarding its a joke. Oh yeah and who ever said jim varney is good is a numbskull. Hes the most unfunniest person Ive ever seen. In fact, I think Ronald Mcdonald commercials are funnier than these. I cant get over what a bad movie it was. PS The best part was when they show the snowboard go down the hill riding regular, then show him going off the jump switch. What a joke.

The best SNOWBOARDING movie ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:
I thought that was really cool when the snowboarders raced and had a freestyle contest vs. the skiers.

Great Images:
Honestly I bought this book becase it's about snowboarding. I wasn't expecting a great comedy (and didn't get it as a matter of fact). The actors are far from excellent and the humor leaves much to be desired, but I have to say that the snowboarding sequences are really good. Camera angles are great and I will end up watching this tape over and over just for that. If you are looking for a comedy get something else, but if you want to look at cool snowboarding filming this video is very cheap and will satisfy you.

Completely biased:
I think this movie is the funniest film since 'Truimph of the Will'. Snowboard Academy has it all: teen heartthrob Corey Haim, saucy euro-wench Bridget Neilson, the multi-faceted Jim Varney and the unstoppable juggernaut of SCTV, Joe Flaherty. But the real find of this stunning film is the amazing and over the top performance by newcomer James Salisko. This man is a powerhouse of entertainment. What sly wit , what eloquence, what a brilliant and original character he has created. Such a bold and brave portrayal of the usually hackneyed stereotype of the 'fat bartender'left this viewer agape in disbeleif. We've seen a bold new force on the horizon . And it's name is James......

Awesome movie!:
This movie is so funny,the first time I saw it was laughing my head off!Jim Varny is a exellent commiedest,and any of these fine actors in here should have been given an award.
