Synopsis

17-year-old Joshua "J" Cody moves in with his freewheeling relatives in their Southern California beach town after his mother dies of a heroin overdose. Headed by boot-tough matriarch Janine "Smurf" Cody and her right-hand Baz, who runs the business and calls the shots, the clan also consists of Pope, the oldest and most dangerous of the Cody boys; Craig, the tough and fearless middle son; and Deran, the troubled, suspicious "baby" of the family.

Reviews

Supelice Dreadfully Boring
Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Leftbanker ...Central casting committed some major errors. More on that later.A lot of people on IMDb moan that the show is nothing like the Australian film upon which it is based. I didn't care much for that film. I also think the series has more in common with Point Break.I think the casting sank it from the start. The two long-hair surfer brothers, Craig and Deran, just weren't tough enough to pull off their roles. They needed guys that can play hardcore criminals and these two are WAY too soft for the role. The way they portray them as such sissies affects the rest of the storyline. Who would be afraid of these doofuses? Baz and Pope are both about right and the young kid isn't bad. At least he isn't a liability.The little teenage girlfriend was simply atrocious, both as an actress as well as her appearance. She is just too dumpy for this role. This is one instance when they needed a super-hot seductress for the role. I wanted her to get killed off or go away from her first appearance. Of course, she is a Hollywood legacy and only got into the business because of her family. Ugh.Ellen Barkin was also a terrible choice. Too much facial surgery may have messed up her acting chops, but I never remembered her as being good at it. Just the ways she walks bugs me. I think the series also suffers from a lack of good characters outside of the family. The cops are all idiots and there isn't a strong character among any of them. So much unused potential.
daveschaer-08524 Great show, entertaining, sexy, violent and humorous
pgooden Ellen Barkin is atrocious in this . As I watched her last night with the controlled walk and nose in the air it just didn't ring as being at all believable . Her scenes with sons and closeups where she tries to pull off the I know what you've been up to just don't make it - She should take that little bounce out of her step.
jennyj I love this show enough to purchase the entire season instead of waiting for it to be on Prime. Everything about this show is wonderful. The city that it is set in, Oceanside CA, is almost like a character in itself.
