Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

DJJOEINC Maybe it was low expectations after seeing several middling pics in a row- but I was pleasantly surprised by Roll Bounce - an charming and fun flick about teens in the roller disco era- Bow Wow was the lead in this movie playing X a son who is still grieving for his recently deceased mother.Chi Mcbride does a great job as a father who is looking for work while trying to hold his family together and deal with the passing of his beloved.For the most part this is a comedy- the kids cut on each other the whole flick- and it is fun.The crosstown rival is Sweetness- who is like the pimpdaddy of roller disco- he has an entourage including 3 hotties who have shirts that read "a weakness for Sweetness".The gag reel has some hilarious stuff with Charlie Murphy riffing .A good coming of age flick. Probably the second best rental coming out this week-right behind 40 Year Old Virgin B+

Beth Lynch This movie brought back a lot of fond memories of the skating rink. It is definitely better than the average score given on IMDb. Despite some adult language by the teens in this movie, the story is light-hearted and tender. Bow Wow Shad Gregory Moss is definitely following in the steps of Will Smith in acting. He's a true talent! This is a family must see for parents 35 to 45 with teen children. A lot of "Awe, man, I used to have one of those/did that" moments: the Atari, the inchworm toy scooter, sissy bar bikes; the all skate, the couples skate, the lady's choice skate, trying not to fall down, learning how to skate backwards, popping the water blisters so you'll be ready to skate next time; young love and young lust without sex; the staying out all day in the neighborhood with your friends during the summertime and not going home until the streetlights flick on. That was the last generation to enjoy childhood innocently - that was my childhood! If you were a child in the late 70's and loved to skate, you will love this movie!

eXtreme23 In the late '70s when roller skating is all youngsters were doing, X (Bow Wow) and his pals ruled at it. But when the doors of their local skating rink close, they feel it is the end, there is another skating rink that they don't like to attend - uptown's Sweetwater Roller Rink, complete with its over-the-top skaters and beautiful girls. Preparing for a skate off later that week, X and his friends have to work together and win as a team.Roll Bounce is Bow Wow's second lead roll in a film. I have to say he wasn't bad. He's a good actor. There is a scene when X and his father are arguing and he gives a performance that I thought was well. But I have to say that his rapping isn't so good. I feel that he acts better than her raps, and that's not a good thing. There were other young actors and I thought that they will be getting some roles later in their career.This also is a good movie. I enjoyed it. You will have watching this because I did. There were some in jokes that you can laugh at, the story is good and the acting is well done. I remember the movie "You Got Served" which I thought that wasn't a good movie. The acting in that movie was terrible and watching Roll Bounce, you know which is a better movie.This is a fun movie and I am recommending it. People will enjoy this film. 7.5/10

BOUF In the summer of 1978, teenage roller-skating whiz, Xavier (Bow-Wow) and his pals compete for the roller disco championship at a swanky uptown rink. This is a high-energy unsophisticated comedy-drama, in which the wonderfully exciting roller-disco dancing far outshines the rather unconvincing drama and re-cycled sitcom sequences. There were no kids at the preview I attended, which was a pity because, I think, they'd love this. It's a movie with a big heart, and a lot of big performances from some seasoned young TV actors. Everybody concerned is doing their best, looking their best and dancing up a storm. The photography by J. Michael Muro is always gorgeous (director Malcolm D. Lee makes particularly good use of the wide-screen format) and the finale at the roller-disco rink is a knock-out
