Grind

Forced gross-out gags and sports cliches are in ample supply in this skateboarding comedy, while occasional attempts at absurd humor fall flat. Some of the action scenes are exciting, but seeing this in the theater essentially cost moviegoers twice. They had to pay for their tickets, then pay again by sitting through the rest of Grind.
