There is a breathtaking grace when these young men (and one female) ride a skateboard high into the air and flip the board and their bodies through an impossible series of contortions. Go to Full Review Scott Foundas Variety 09/12/2023
For all his visual flair, Hendricks never goes deeper inside X Games culture. The film is too insular and self-contained, as though those who are not already members of the party are not invited to attend. Go to Full Review Derek Adams Time Out 06/24/2006
[A] spectacular extreme sports extravaganza. Go to Full Review Dennis King Tulsa World 09/12/2023
3/4
It's a high-sheen circus of color, crashes, acrobatics and testosterone that's perfect for the large-format IMAX screen. Go to Full Review Tony Lewis Buffalo News 09/12/2023
A 42-minute promotional film masquerading as a documentary. Go to Full Review Bill Chambers Film Freak Central 09/12/2023
2/4
Ultimate X is a commercial for the X-Games that undersells its own product by cutting to commentary from personnel in which they overstress that "we ain't seen nothin' yet." You start to wonder, If that's the case, why do you keep making me [watch]? Go to Full Review Read all reviews

10/19/2011 Why on earth did I put this on my DVD list? Well, why the heck not? Hotdog (RIP) said it was worth a watch so I thought I'd give it a go and perhaps open my mind to something new. So I did, and my horizons were broadened. Those dudes get up to some crazy stuff. And Pink!'s husband is in it. Flinging my little Ford Ka round like I'm in The Italian Job suddenly pales into insignificance by comparison. See more Read all reviews
