very weak, unfortunately
Truly Dreadful Film
Just perfect...
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
View MoreThis film had me "rolling" with laughter. So light hearted and inspiring. Definitely one of the best skating movies ever made.
View More"Rollertown" is nothing short of a sublime masterpiece, operating on multiple levels to grant an audience the time of their lives. Performances offered by Mark Little and Evany Rosen stand out, yet the entire ensemble cast shines brighter than any star in our universe.It is as impossible to count how many times I have watched this movie, as it is to number how many times this film has brought me to tears, laughter, and expressions of pure joy.The Canadian feature has earned not only a place in my personal all time favorite films, but a place in my all time favorite experiences. Without a shadow of doubt, pinicface's bold and courageous film will live on throughout history as a unique and thrilling comedy ride. I count myself fortunate to have been taken along for that ride, and I recommend anyone with the means to have a crack on the heavenly roller coaster that is "rollertown" as well.
View MoreI have no clue why people are giving this such bad reviews, maybe they were just born without a sense of humor, maybe they wanted this to be more The Usual Suspects. All I know is the theater I saw this in was cracking up the entire time. This movie is loaded with parts that will make you laugh so bad you feel a 6 pack coming on. This film is not intended to be for humorless adults, it is intended to be a movie for a bunch of people to watch together in a basement and have a great time at a badly made very funny film. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes the movie Mystery Team (another film made by a comedy group who got their start on youtube). Can not wait to see it again.
View More"Roller Town" is the first film from the genius sketch comedy group Picnicface. I became a big fan of the group when they exploded on Youtube with viral hits like "Powerthirst" and "Hey Africa." I'm the kind of guy who started subscribing to individual members' channels, watching every obscure, random video they'd post, and I have loved every minute of it. So there was obviously some anticipation for this movie on my part.In short, it did not disappoint.The writing on the film is excellent. 90% of the jokes are good to great, a few, not so much. I was giggling throughout the movie. The goofy style and lighthearted spin on 70's pop culture was great fun. The soundtrack was surprisingly excellent. All of the Picnicface members in the film did a great job. Watch for a great scene-stealing performance from Brian MacQuarrie as Grandpa.There are a few minor sound and pacing/editing issues, but these do not detract at all from a hilarious, entertaining film. Looking forward to more from these great humans in the future, collectively or as individuals.
