Supercharge is Studio 2000's latest sex-soaked, supernatural sizzler. This glossy, big-budget bonanza was shot in Southern California and is bursting at the seams with a cast of homegrown hunks, led by exclusive newcomer DC Chandler, that will leave you weak in the knees. New director Bobby Dazzler is the buzz of the industry. What's the buzz? That Dazzler is a pseudonym for someone whose real name is a buzz-word all over the community. This magical tale centers around a jar of hair gel labeled Telepathy. This gel allows the wearer to hear people's thoughts and even control their wills. Can you imagine being able to hear what every hot guy is thinking? SuperCharge sets up just such a situation exploring the sexual ramifications, Studio 2000 style.

Plot Summary

A down-on-his-luck former motocross champion gets a chance at redemption when he's recruited to lead a ragtag team of aspiring riders in a high-stakes competition. Facing internal rivalries and a ruthless corporate sponsor, he must overcome his past demons and train the team to prove that heart and determination can triumph over all odds.

Critical Reception

SuperCharge was met with a largely indifferent critical response, with many reviewers finding its plot predictable and its humor hit-or-miss. While some praised the action sequences and the performances of the lead actors, the film was generally seen as a formulaic sports comedy that offered little in the way of originality.

What Reviewers Say

  • The film struggles with a derivative plot that borrows heavily from other sports underdog stories.

  • Performances are a mixed bag, with some cast members managing to inject energy into the thin material.

  • The motocross action sequences are competently staged but don't quite compensate for the weak script.

Google audience: Audiences found SuperCharge to be a watchable, if uninspired, sports movie. Many enjoyed the racing scenes and the triumphant underdog narrative, though a significant portion felt the film lacked originality and a memorable punch.

Fun Fact

The film's lead actor reportedly performed many of his own stunts on a modified motocross bike, enduring several minor injuries during the intense filming schedule.
