Good movie but grossly overrated
... View MoreAlthough I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
... View MoreThe film may be flawed, but its message is not.
... View MoreActress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
... View MoreI'm all for modern day films that take plots from the classics and you don't get more classic than the Bard. If a film like Motocrossed will encourage young folks to check out 12th Night and the rest of the works of Master Will Shakespeare so much the better.Motocrossed is the story the Carson Family who all enjoy the sport of Motorcycle racing including daughter Alana Austin. Her twin brother Trevor O'Brien is an up and coming young racer, but when he's injured and can't compete his twin sister takes so she can compete with the boys and show she has the right stuff for the support.Austin does have her problems though, she has to win her parents and siblings over which also includes a most indiscreet little brother Scott Terra. Mother Mary-Margaret Humes gets on board as Austin appeals to the feminist side of her. It's father Timothy Carhart that's kept in the dark for most of the film.It doesn't help that there's a champion Motocross rider in Riley Hill that she has an interest in that extends to more than sports. But being in male drag won't help her cause.Motocrossed has some nice cinematography of the young folk doing their racing and it's fine family entertainment.
... View MoreOK. heres a story that has a fantastic moral, good music, gorgeous Riley smith and an evil villain(Renee'). i love the movie and it is NEVER boring. the movie brings out the fact that Disney has actually made a cute original story that attracts little children AND preteens - adults(Sort of). although its very very predictable its cute and it makes you laugh. theirs a lot of characters that r sorta pointless (fern, that guys who fix's deans bike... etc...) but it still has an amazing story plot and is very fun to watch. i personally LOVE LOVE LOVE this movie and think that its the best Disney channel original movie and then stuck in the suburbs. its just one of those movies where you wont die if you don't see, but it is a great watch and is worth "wasting" 1 hour and 30 minutes. its enjoyable and cute and i for one don't think u will get so upset if u watch it and don't like it, after all, its just a movie.
... View MoreLike in other comments that I have put out, I have said that I like the music better than the movie itself. In this case, I like them both. I agree with some other people that the music is good because it has a variety such as soothing, rock, MST, instrumental, etc. I have seen this movie about 10 or 15 times and I always say, "Oooh, yey! Motocrossed is on!" I say that because I am also 12 years old. And being at the age where I am supposed to like this sort of movie, I did. Alana Austin (Andi Carson) did a great job of Andi. Although to me it is obvious that she was at least 3 or 4 years older than she is in the movie. I read other comments and they say that "Jason", played by Scott Terra, is 9? In real life, he 13 or 14 when the filming of that movie took place. So I recommend this movie out to everyone! But I have to agree with the other users, this movie is a bit predictable. 10/10
... View MoreI can't believe my eyes when I read some of the user comments here about this Disney tv movie "Motocrossed" with some saying this is the best Disney movie ever.Have some of these characters left their wits at the door or haven't they heard of "Treasure Island"?Motocrossed is the old switcheroo story of a girl(Alana Austin)taking over for her injured brother at motorcross racing and fooling everyone who thinks she is a boy and winning the big race and the big stud at the end too.Such creativity.Most who like this tripe believe that what a boy can do a girl can do,that is the message of the film here.But this isn't always true.Especially with motorcross racing,you just can't become the best in ten minutes.Yet the story has this girl cheerleader beating out her male counterparts with ease with little or no training.That sound you just heard was Walt Disney flipping over in his grave. The feminists types,of both sexes,could enjoy this movie no doubt but the best part of Motocrossed came at the beginning when the cheerleader sequence was shown to us in slow motion no less.There should have been more of that in this movie rather than the feminist nonsense that was actually presented.
