Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

filipe pinto The movie is not very credible, the surfing (few) clips are just OK.In the movie everything is just OK.If someone is to do a movie just to be OK i believe that there are others of expression that are better suited. An article on a magazine, a Youtube.What i believe is that there are surfers out there that are land locked like myself and it is through these movies that we allow our minds return to the liquid.Bias? Sure. After all surf is something that you feel and you can't explain. I can tell you that i didn't feel it at all here.Now that you have understood where i'm coming from, allow me to explain what are the other issues: 1 - the people that actually surf are really NOT the actors 2 - the actors are NOT actors.... really 3 - the idea that surf is a wood panel door truck is to cliché'Maybe it would work for TV. In a movie is very painful.

hbsnake1 I enjoyed this movie and yes, I'm a real surfer who is widely known in the surfing world. I'm not a movie critic and really don't care that there some minor mistakes, the theme itself made up for the problems. This film reminded me of many trips, surf sessions, and other things we used to do. I still drive groms to the beach, give them hints, help them along, and yes I've even given a few boards away. Don't think it doesn't happen as it happens all the time. Ask Chuck Linnen about how many groms he's taken under his wing over the years. Some became US and even world champions.Some may find fault with how surfers bargain for boards in the movie. Sorry but Dick Dale reminded me of my mentor Dale Velzy selling boards in Huntington Beach back in the early 60s.

dory215 altogether i think that this movie was pretty good. but at the same time it had its high and low parts. i enjoyed it when skeet (jeremy sumpter) found the new board where he buried his other one because the look on his face was just pure joy. but i didnt understand why wesly (mark harmon) left. because everything was going just fine. it was one of the best movies about surfers!! altogether id give this move an A-.

ifeelpretty17 This is by far the best surfing movie I have ever seen. It has a great story and a perfect cast. Jeremy Sumpter and Eric Christian Olsen work GREAT together as brothers.Jeremy Sumpter is a very gifted actor. He is unbelievably talented. This movie is just good,clean entertainment,and we could definately use more movies like this nowadays. > Also,the surfing rocks! Mark Harmon has been a favorite of mine for a couple of years now. I'm not sure I agree with his moustache though. It would've looked better on him if it was shorter on the sides. I love the opening sequence,with Skeet (Jeremy Sumpter) riding his skim board near the shore. Skim boarding is fun to do, and fun to watch!I'm giving it an 11 out of 10! I SERIOUSLY recommend this to any surfing fans,surf movie fans, and anyone who likes great entertainment and hot beaches!
