Attack! (1989) is a curious blend of late-eighties skate culture and early CGI experimentation. The film juggles the raw, gritty vibe of skate videos with those nascent computer graphics that, while clunky by today’s standards, hold a certain charm. It's interesting how the pacing feels almost frenetic, reflecting the adrenaline of skateboarding itself. The documentary aspect gives it an authentic feel, as it captures both the thrill and the culture surrounding the sport. The practical effects, though limited, are used creatively, adding to that distinct flavor of the time. It doesn't really follow a traditional narrative arc, but rather immerses you in a world where skateboarding and technology collide. Definitely a unique piece for anyone who appreciates the evolution of visual effects in film.
