Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a great movie - the footage is beautiful and the soundtrack is wonderful and non-traditional. It has the feel of an early 70s surf flick, something like Cosmic Children. There are longboards and shortboards and the surfing is just incredible. The fun that these guys have in the waves is palpable and their respect for the sport comes through as well. I particularly like the segment featuring Dave Rastovich, who is this generation's true soul surfer. It was a wise move to use his voice for the commentary in this part of the movie.
The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is because I found the conquistador segment completely out of context with the rest of the movie. It didn't work regardless of one's political stance, it just didn't work in my opinion. Stick to surfing please.
So buy it. Keep these guys making movies. These are so much better than the average surf movie.
