Extreme Days (2001)

Great Movie

This is a great movie that combines extreme sports, love interest, and godly values. Clean and good for mixed company parties that love music. January 12, 2007

EXTREMEly Good!

I saw this movie last night, and I LOVED it!!!! It was SO not what I was expecting. It was hilarious, with quite a few good Christian morals mixed in. And the best part was that it was clean - no sex, no drugs, no swearing. If you have a random sense of humor, like extreme sports, and/or are craving a nice, clean, GOOD movie, watch this one! It rocks! December 14, 2004

Extreme Days-Awsome Ways!

I was so overwhelmed to find such a great movie! This is really a family movie. I [my husband and I] was watching it not knowing what to expect. When I was listening to the music. I realized that this is the same music that my youngest teen listens to. I hear it in church. Then we were really getting into the movie. No nude scenes! No violence! No cursing! Wait, do they still make thes movies. Well I couldn't believe it. We watched this over and over again. We have looked to buy it. My 16 year old daughter has wanted it for Christmas this being the 2nd now. Not any place I have gone to sells it. That doesn't surprise me at all! Some never heard of it. When you can see a movie with all the feeling of God moving you. Well anyone that hasn't seen it is missing out of a GREAT movie. I wish we had it and more like it. I just pray that we can soon find it along with more like it!!! November 24, 2004

Extremely good!!!

A story about 4 guys, who decide to go on a road trip, after they've finished their high school. Firts they travell to Mexico in order to catch some serious waves. They get some serious surfing over there. But then the news comes, that one of their's grandfathers died and they must come to Seattle to collect the money he left for him. So they decide to trvell up there. On the way they meet a girl, who turns out to be a cousin of one of them. So together they continue the journey only stopping to do some extreme motocross jumps, some extreme skateboarding and snowboarding. But durin this journey one of the guys falls in love with her (of course), but they get into a fight and she leaves. Well in the end, they found out that there hasn't been any money left for one of them. After they raise some money, they decide to fly to Alaska in order to get some serious snowboarding and they want to take the girl with them. Well, at first she doesn't want to leave, but in the end she appears in the plane nad that's the happy end of the story.
Also cool in this movie, beside the story, are the clips of some great surfers, skaters, motocross riders and snowboarders, doing really extreme tricks. Awesome! October 22, 2004

What is there to like about Extreme Days?

Everything! Everything is to like about this film.

My youngest brother watched this movie first and then told me I had to see it. I gave in and watched it with him, and laughed hysterically.

First of all in response to some other comments about this movie-- Christian films just like secular films require money, and support. You won't see big names like Disney backing up a Christian film, and you can't expect the same viewing quality. The Passion, made by Mel Gibson was the first Christian film that had film quality, and not everyone has the amount of money or resources as Mel.

That asside, this movie was awesome. It was powerful. It was geared toward a young audience and has some childish scenes, but still makes for an amazing family movie night. It's a movie with a lesson. It's a movie with a point. But most importantly---

It's a movie WITHOUT language, sex, violence, nudity, and gore.

Completely appropriate for the entire family, and a movie I am proud to own. I am a 20 year old college student and I still think it's the best movie (Jonah (Veggie Tales) being a close second) I've ever seen.

I'm not going to hype this up as a movie that places all the focus on Jesus, because I do think they could have used a few more scenes that included prayer, and/or talking about the Lord. However, I think it's clean, and the overall plot is a story of how God can take the seemingly bad things in life and turn them into good if we would place our trust in Him.

The Genesis 50:20 rule "What you intended for bad, the Lord intended for good."

If you would like to see a Christian film with a real message, complete honesty, true cleanliness, and non-stop hilarity, buy this movie! And watch it over and over again--you will want to, trust me.

Thanks for readin,

In His Grip,
AJ
