Ultimately, BMX bikes and Day-Glo elbow pads just ain't cool. One best left to fond memory.

Entertainment Weekly by Chris Nashawaty

The film’s no great shakes; it’s a Down Under Goonies wannabe about three wisecracking kids shredding on their bikes as they’re chased by bungling bank robbers. But the baby-faced Kidman is easily the best thing in it.

The Guardian by Luke Buckmaster

A feast of kitsch and gaudy colour, set to the tune of an 80s synth soundtrack, the film plays like a G-rated music video. And Trenchard-Smith maintaining a buzzing energy throughout.
