An Exercise In Nonsense

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Take this movie for what it is. A snapshot of what life was like in the 80's in a suburban Southern California beach community. The correct approach is to soak up the feeling it evokes not rip the plot up. The plot isn't the point. Granted, it may not be a period piece many are interested in but it is accurate depiction of lower middle class life was like at that time with a lot of silliness mixed in. These are kids from single-family non-attentive households, not aspiring to anything beyond they know outside their little universe of beaches, girls and recreational drugs. It also shows how a gang mentality begins. These surfer kids were each others family and were very territorial. In this case a kid from the "Valley" (San Fernando Valley) was trespassing and stole one of the local kid's surfboards triggering a manhunt to retrieve it. No plan, no strategy, no thinking three steps ahead. In other words exactly how teenagers behave and think. It's lucky they were able to film in a place that basically hasn't changed in 20 years.

This is the worst movie I have ever seen in the history of seeing movies and I have seen a lot of rubbish, this however tops them all.There is no content and there is no story, it is an endless stinking pile of goo where clichés one after another is being jammed down the throat of the viewers of this flick. During the few moments this is not the "content" of the movie, the "content" consist of fillers. Any school kid that makes a movie can make a movie with more entertaining content than this movie.DO NOT WATCH THIS, you will regret it and wished you could undo the traumatizing experience that will give you scars from the boredom for the rest of your life.

All in all this was way funnier and fresher than I'd expected.Three buddies go in search of a handmade beautiful surfboard that gets stolen.Nicely put together and all in all an easy view.It's never gonna win an Oscar but it is well made and if you like stoner surfer movies then this ain't bad at all - nothing' too offensive but as a buddy movie I've seen a lot worse.We enjoyed the summer of our youth vibe, it really is pretty good if you just want to chill and watch a movie. Some nice surfing sequences and the obligatory stoners and chicks - no brainer stuff...

I got carried away by IMDb's 7.8/10 rating for this movie. Turned out to be 90 minutes of unadulterated torture.Some guys surf board gets stolen and it turns out the guy who stole it is the valley. The guy whose board is stolen gathers a motley group of friends who are all lame. They set off to retrieve the board. But only once when they get the board they now want revenge. Its actually pathetic even trying to describe the plot The acting is pathetic. The story line is rubbish at best.Am seriously wondering who the 58 people are who ensured this movie is ranked so high here and what there frame of mind was to vote accordingly. Too bad IMDb doesn't allow to rank less than one. If i had my way i wouldn't even give it a rating of 0.Do yourself a favor and stay away from this one.
