Pretending I'm a Superman: The Tony Hawk Video Game Story Ratings & Reviews
College Movie Review
Kip Mooney
Brief but covers all it needs to.
Film Threat
Josiah Teal
At times, the movie does go down some rabbit holes, and it is definitely for a niche audience. However, if you grew up on the games or love witnessing the progression of skateboarding, this is a documentary worthy of the high scores it will inspire.
Elements of Madness
Douglas Davidson
Ludvig Gür explores the cultural impact of the Tony Hawk Pro Skater series ... making it clear that this single game, the first installment in the series, single-handedly changed the course of pop culture forever.
Orca Sound
Carey-Ann Pawsey
Story of the game, but also of Tony Hawk himself. His rise was rather meteoric and two decades later is still the biggest name in skateboarding.
ComingSoon.net
Grant Hermanns
Pretending I'm a Superman proves to be a plenty fun, nostalgic and intriguing dive into the iconic video game franchise.
Common Sense Media
Brian Costello
Docu best for skaters and video game fans; some cursing.
Hollywood News
Joey Magidson
Gamers who love this series will get a lot out of this, but even those more casual viewers will find some interest.

Amanda Sink
Whether you love documentaries, THPS, Tony Hawk himself, or just love video games - Pretending I'm a Superman: The Tony Hawk Video Game Story has a trick for everyone.
AIPT
Nathaniel Muir
Video game documentaries are a tricky thing. They tend to be great at covering surface level material. This look at the Tony Hawk franchise is a deeper look.
ComicBook.com
Nicole Drum
While Pretending I'm a Superman probably would have worked a bit better being focused entirely on skateboarding, it's still an enjoyable and informative project that captures the joy of the sport in a way that anyone can appreciate - skater or not.
We Live Entertainment
Aaron Neuwirth
An evident love for the game and what it did for the culture is on display, with plenty of admiration for Tony Hawk as well.
IGN Movies
Jessie Wade
Anyone who has nostalgia for Tony Hawk Pro Skater or who grew up skateboarding won't be able to look away.
