Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesFilming was delayed because the Helltrack starting ramp was so high that none of the riders wanted to go down it. The ramp was cut down to a 25 foot tall version. BMX Plus magazine published an article about it.
- GaffesChristian is heard yelling, "Get up!" just before Cru falls during the second lap of Helltrack. Once Cru falls, she's seen and heard yelling again.
- Générique farfeluR.L. Osborn and Martin Apariljo perform BMX feats throughout much of the end credits.
- Autres versionsScenes included in the final airing on the Canadian cable movie station Superchannel, but absent from the home video version;
- A short sequence, actually made up of three different scenes, right after the confrontation at the Rad Racing T-Shirt stand. These scenes are;
- Luke is sitting at the dinner table with his parents. His father tells him it isn't the end of the world. He excuses himself from the table.
- Amy is sitting in her room listening to music when her mother comes in. They have a short exchange where her mother scolds her for acting childish.
- An unnamed boy storms out of his house late at night.
- Right after this comes a scene where a drunken Bart Taylor stumbles into the restaurant where Cru works just as it's closing. Shouting, Bart challenges him to a one on one race, since Cru has been disqualified from HellTrack. Bart winds up falling over and doing a face plant into a piece of pie on the table where the bald cop is sitting.
- Another scene just before the race, after Duke Best has warned Bart about Cru and instructed the Reynolds twins to take him out;
- Cru thanks Mr. Pratt for him and the town getting behind him and supporting Rad Racing. Mr. Pratt gives Cru a brand new bike from his store.
- All of the characters from the deleted scenes are listed in the credits on the home video version.

This film is called Rad, and that's exactly what it is: A truly radical experience. I admit, I did hear about this movie from the Nostalgia Critic's review of it. Then, when I heard the epic song "Break the Ice" and when I heard about how much of an audience it attracted, I decided to check it out... Right at the perfect time, summer of freshman year. I was in for a kick-ass experience.
The film's opening is awesome. It's nothing but dudes on BMX bikes showing off their tricks. Just amazing! After the opening, we get our main character, Cru Jones. He reminds me of Rocky, an underdog who is determined to get something done, despite the odds against him. It's funny to mention Rocky, because Talia Shire (Adrian from Rocky) is in this movie. We also have Aunt Becky from Full House in this movie. Man, what a babe! In the end, everything turns out great.
This movie sure knows how to deliver. It's marketed as a BMX movie, and that's what it gives us. Awesome. It's also inspirational. Before I saw this film, I saw riding my bike as a dead phase of my life. Now, after I saw the movie, I can't get enough of my bike. I like going outside on my bike and trying to do tricks and stuff. It sucks how this movie was only released to VHS. We need this film on DVD. Official DVD, which means that the homebrews out on the Internet don't count. Well, the folks at InHD came to the rescue and released a version of this movie with DVD-like quality, and it was awesome. Notice: I said "was", which means that every copy of this version that was uploaded to YouTube have now been taken down thanks to a false copyright claim by Warner Bros., even though they don't own the movie. Luckily, I caught on early that these were being taken down, so I snagged a copy and saved it to my SD card. Just look at us fans, the extremes we have to go through to get this film out on DVD.
Don't look at this film as a piece of '80s that was only a fad, look at it as Rocky on bikes. Yeah, the music is pretty dated, but that shouldn't matter today, since it seems like all modern movies rely on music from the past to use in their films, but who could blame them? Bottom line, this film was great then and it's great now.
