5 out of 5 stars A great flim.......2007-03-20

This is another great film with Corey Haim as the lead actor. This film didn't get enough attention when it came out. I love this movie because it deals with what could happen at any time in America as well as some home turf terrorism and the drug problem.

3 out of 5 stars Another solid early 90's flick.......2005-08-04

I GIVE THIS MOVIE 3 STARS.THE MOVIE IS GOOD , IT'S LIKE A WHITE VERSION OF A BLACK GANGSTER MOVIE.BUT THE WHITE GUYS ARE A GANG OF ROLLER BLADER'S LIKE 30-80 DEEP IN MEMBERS.
I HAVEN'T SEEN THIS MOVIE SINCE LIKE 1996 AND I CAN'T REMEMBER IF THERE WAS LAME PARTS OR CORNY ,BUT I'M SURE THERE IS IT'S 1991 FILM MAKING.

IF IT COMES OUT ON DVD IT SHOULD BE A 10 DOLLAR MOVIE , ALONG WITH GLEAMING THE CUBE.

5 out of 5 stars It's Not Meant To Be A Rollerblading Movie..........2004-10-31

...As I said this movie really isn't about rollerbladeing; that was just a tie-in to entice us. Remember when rollerblading was really popular during the early Nineties? Anyways, "Prayer of The Rollerboys" is about Neo-Naziism,(at least if you watch really closely) if not; then it really is just a rollerblading movie. If you pay attention very carefully you'll notice that every 'Rollerboy' is let's say white(I'm not kidding; watch for yourself). Also if you pay attention to all of Gary Lee's associates; you'll notice that one of them is Japanese and another, whom Corey Haim's character extorts money from, serves pizza(Italian reference?). And if you pay attention to the pizza parlor propietor(named Pinky) and his attitude towards the 'Rollerboys'; you'll notice a slite reference to Italy's political stance during World War II.

The drug 'Mist' has a secret ingredient called 'Rope' which sterilizes those that use it; which is why Gary Lee doesn't want any of his 'Rollerboys' to use it. Once the weak have been sterilized only the strong will be left; hence "Day of the Rope". 'Rope' is the final solution to the ever plagueing problem. The only opposition the 'Rollerboys' face, aside from the police, is a rival gang called the 'B-13'. The 'B-13' is a gang consisting of every minority and then some. Remember the scene where the truck pulls in and the 'B-13' just start cappin'-off 'Rollerboys'? If you do, watch it again, and pay attention to all the peole involved in that scene. I don't know, maybe I'm just over-analizing this flick.

I recommend this movie because if it really IS just a rollerblading movie, than it kicks ass, because it's a pretty graphic rollerblading movie(especially when Bullwinkle gets his brains splattered by that corrupt cop). If this movie really IS about what I think it is, than this movie comepletely sucks balls. Honestly; how tough does a Neo-Nazi look on rolllerblades?
Either, or, I still recommend this movie...but don't pay more than $10 for it(in any medium, i.e. DVD, Laserdisc, and God forbid, VHS). I also would like to add that this is the best movie Corey Haim has been featured in...aside from "Lost Boys".

This movie was made when rollerblades were awesome. This is an awesome rollerblading movie.

5 out of 5 stars THE COOLEST COREY HAIM MOVIE!.......2004-01-17

I am watching this movie right now on tv and it's just so cool! It's set in the future when Corey Haim is a rollerskater and joins the Rollerboys gang to tip off the police on all the bad things they do. While doing this he delivers pizzas and takes care of his little brother. I know many people might think it's a corny movie but to me it's so bad that it's good! And for all you 80's kids, COREY HAIM LOOKS HOT! He's hot enough that you can fry an egg off the screen! SIZZLING! Definitely the better looking Corey!
