MattyGibbs A teenager moves to the coast with his mom, to live with his grandad following the death of his father. He struggles to fit in until his ex surfboard champion grandad teaches him to surf. It's a straightforward story and one that's been done a million times before however I found it quite entertaining if a little predictable. There is a strong performances from Eric Roberts as the grandad and he steals most of the scenes he is in. Sydney Penny as his mom offers good support but unfortunately the lead actor Adam Horner is a bit wooden. I must admit I know zip about surfing so I don't know how realistic the surfing scenes were but I'm guessing not very. This is really a film about fitting in and overcoming your fears more than surfing though so I guess that point doesn't really matter. This is a safe and watchable family film that's probably worth a 6.5 but as it provided a nice distraction from the cold dull English winter I'll give it a 7.
riellylane This was literally the worst movie I have ever had the displeasure of enduring in my life. I don't know how much acid Gary Wheeler took before scribbling random words on a page which ultimately led to this cornucopia of typical corniness, inaccurate surfing references, horrible dialogue and overall predictable clichés, but it must've been a lot. I feel as though it would've been better if in the end everyone was killed by a freak accident of some sort, because it would be the only part of the film that wasn't a predictable piece of elephant faeces.Do not make the mistake of watching/purchasing this film. It is absolutely beyond my comprehension how this film is rated as high as a 7.4, 2 girls 1 cup is better than this, and there's less poo involved.Wheeler needs his head read.Good day.P.S. This movie was so bad it made me right a review.
mudellen2 I really enjoyed the movie--and the music! I expected to see Jason Castro performing, but he didn't! However, some of his songs played in the background. Still, another song "Everyday" featured in the movie really caught my attention. Like the movie, the song is very uplifting--and just made me feel good! So much so, that I searched it, found it was written and sung by Tyrus Morgan, went to his website and ordered the album Straight Line. Almost every song on this album has the same uplifting melodies--now I can listen to "Everyday" every day! Eric Roberts was fantastic!So--I recommend the movie, as well as the music!
war-eagle Eric Roberts (Lou) plays a retired champion surfer and grandfather in this film. His character adaptation is the salt of the earth, something we have come to expect from the underrated Roberts. Sydney Penny (Alyssa) is complex but pleasant. Her on-screen beauty is familiar but dazzling. She turns on a dime and takes us on a ride of emotions as an unsure widow who turns to her estranged father for help in establishing a new identity and life, not only for herself but also for her teenage son. Adam Horner (Jake) is the typical teenager at a crossroads, but he is believable and solid. Katie Garfield (Kayla) turns in a strong performance as the love interest. This movie is interesting to children (mine are 12 and 9 and were fixated) as well as adults. If you want wholesome entertainment without the cheese, this is a movie worth seeing. Make more of these!
