Guide Review - Video - "YEAH RIGHT!" by Girl
The selling point of the video is it's use of special effects sections, usually marked by someone saying "Yeah Right!" or by it being written somewhere. These parts are great, from guys skating without boards (very cool), a trippy "Skatrix" part, and actor Owen Wilson talking trash and skating.
The video starts with a tribute to Keenan Milton. This is a cool thing to see - he was totally advanced and did a ton for skateboarding. The section is older grainy footage, and sets a somber mood to the start of the movie. Then, after the tribute, the video moves into a sweet high quality intro with the camera in slow motion, zoomed in on a skaters feet. It's mesmerizing and relaxing.
The only real drawback to this video is the lack of soundtrack credits! This movie has some great music, and you can find out who played what song by looking on message boards on the web. So it's not that big of a deal - it just seems strange to leave it out.
Yeah Right! is a good skate video, and a recommended addition to any collection. It's on the clean side of skate videos, has awesome skating, and something for everyone.
