As a fetishized appropriation of the extreme sport of "Supercross" motorcycle racing — for a story about two different-but-similar racing brothers — "Supercross" succeeds in combining fast action with slow burn emotional, if cliched, fuses.

A rift develops between KC Carlyle (Steve Howey) and his younger brother Trip (Mike Vogel) when KC gets sponsored by a factory racing team to play fall-guy to the team's captain.

Cameron Richardson is outstanding as Trip's motorcycle-racing girlfriend Piper.

"Supercross: The Movie" is a boy's fantasy movie complete with a libidinal subplot.

Harsh slang, gnarly attitudes, and lots of testosterone-driven fun fly in an energized movie that meets its achievable cinematic goals.

Believe it or not, this is a well-balanced action/drama movie. 

Rated PG-13. 92 mins.
