Oakley : The Community Project

Review:
Kicking off with an energetic soundtrack and a trip to New Zealand, this whole film is a blast. It is way fast paced and filmed with a sharp eye. From a good long section in New Zealand, to a rail session in New York City, to some of the cleanest, most beautifully shot half pipe footage in Aspen. And that isn’t all; there’s Jackson, Mammoth, Japan, Norway, Alaska, and it just keeps going. The strength of this film is found in three things, the cast of riders is a relatively short list and so it is focused more on the adventure; the music really compliments every moment; and hands down the filming. From crazy to calm, grainy to sharp, colorful to bland, I am sure there are official terms for the different techniques, but whatever, it rules. There isn’t much to the extras, but you can watch each rider’s condensed part. It doesn’t really need much more.
