Review of Gleaming the Cube (1989) by Janet Maslin for The New York Times — 29 Aug 1996
Gleaming the Cube (the title refers to achieving the skateboarding equivalent of cosmic bliss) has an intrigue plot that is unremarkable, and it doesn't do anything terribly novel with the relationship between Brian and the policeman (Steven Bauer) who helps investigate the case.
It becomes somewhat more interesting in exploring the Vietnamese community of Orange County, Calif., especially in its tinier details.
