Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

queen_legolas It isn't a bad movie it's just not a great one. If you don't mind a simple film with nice likable characters then watch it. Its simple but fun when you have nothing else to do.The reason I watched it was because I was a Sean Astin fan. And if you are then it's cool simply because he's in it. Although I was surprised because there is some funny moments and some quite touching moments too which was surprising. And Matthew (Lillard) singing at the end was fantastic.It isn't a fantastic movie but give it a go it might surprise you, just don't expect anything too much.

frockin_boots I'll give the other comment-giver a little bit of credit... but I found this movie to be insanely cute and very cool. I found it out only because I was a huge fan of Sean Astin in LOTR, but as I watched it and pulled more away from just loving to see Sean, I found it really groovy stuff!! Writers and directors use the same story lines and plots all the time! This thing was totally different and maybe not as realistic as we'd like it to be, but it IS still realistic. Hell, I'd be a dish dog if I had Matt Lillard and Sean Astin by my side... AND a hot stripper. It may not have been as good as I had hoped... but I do give it something for the originality and getting me to REALLY eat at a chip, lol.

bubbles_827 Truthfully, I rented this movie expecting to be bored out of my mind and having the only redeeming quality be watching Matt Lillard for two hours, but I was wrong. Matthew Lillard is the cutest philosopher/dishwasher and is accompanied by the non-stop talker Sean Astin. I enjoyed all of their adventures and the exploration of (no, don't say it-) marriage. I'd recommend this movie to anyone in the mood to ooh and aaw over romance (and Matthew Lillard!) They live, they love, they sing-- And boy do they need lessons!

frogman39 I chose this movie by the cover which was a bad move. It wasn't funny at all and the main characters were obnoxious. The girl was beautiful but the story and the acting were terrible. It had absolutely nothing to do with surfing. It had a few scenes with no waves- oh it did have the 2 main characters who obviously can't surf try to take off on a closeout. Then it showed Brian Dennehy who I liked in Cocoon but I lost all respect for him in this movie. It was obvious no one in the movie surfs, which is a good thing because they act like losers anyway. I'm amazed they wasted time and money producing this film. I'm even more amazed people bought it.
