this film become an icon for me from a very young age . i be just nearly five when this movie come out so i do not get to see it until a few year later when channel 4 show it a a retro late night film . i be an avid skater . i long for a local roller rink near me and but there be nothing and only ice rink . i take ice skate lesson to help alleviate some of the frustration and then go back and apply some of the knowledge to my skating . roller boogie be brilliant for me and because it be cheesy and but most of all one of the very rare film that focus on roller skate a tough subject to inject into a movie . terry car in the movie be beautiful too and those white roller boot . i remember finally get a pair of all white leather roller boot and hard to come by over here and but they be the best present ever i still have them and they still fit and i hope to be wear them when i teach my niece how to skate too . roller boogie a a movie can not be take too seriously . it have a feel good factor about it and no obscenity and the music be so retro ( to u nowadays anyway ) and i love the skate line at the beginning of the movie i just wish we have skate lane like that in the uk . this be a film for those who like skate do not bother to watch if you be a football fan you wont get it it simple teenage and roller skating and good v bad and i have spend year try to find a copy to replace my fuzzy vhs tap from tv copy . mine come today and i have watch it and and i will probably watch it in the future when i be snuggle up on the sofa and full of cold or maybe a hangover and just watch it it be my feel good movie and one that few will ever enjoy as much a me . xx .
