Fresh and Exciting
The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Solid and good Animation was good there are some jokes only teens and adults will get but a lot of light hearted humor
If you haven't watched this movie yet do yourself a favour, drop everything, quit your job, divorce your wife if you must, JUST WATCH THE MOVIE. If you have watched this movie before and didn't like it please kindly insert your head back into the butthole it came from immediately. Also why can't I rate this 11 stars hell even 12? To be completely honest I made an account on this website just for the sake of this movie and my burning passion for it, deep in my loins. Besides the first transformers shia labeouf has done nothing great in his career besides this movie and maybe a few memes. Anyways I'm now going to watch this movie again, and again, and probably again. #makesurfsup2
I really like this movie because it brings back memories from when I loved it as a kid. I remember watching it over and over again, and after watching it again now I still like it. The reason I like this movie is kind of hard to explain so this might come out weird : it's "cool". The main character Cody Maverick is just really "cool" and awesome. Again another personal preference: the movie is about surfing:my favourite sport. I really like surfing and since this movie is about surfing and they depict it well, it scores major points in my book. The surfing montage where Cody gets the hang of surfing is beautiful. I really like the cast of supporting characters as well: chicken Joe, Big Z, Lani and the others. I really like the final surf off. It really sets itself apart from other movies by not making the main character win literally but figuratively since he helps his friend. Surf's up is also an extremely funny movie and I love it's mockumentary style. I really like the fact that during the movie big z trains Cody to let go and stuff like that. I think they should've left out the chicken Joe expedition thing and they should've made the movie longer. All in all even though Surf's up is not perfect but it's funny, "cool", has good voice acting , has a nice final surf off and is about surfing.
This is simply a very entertaining computer-animated cartoon about a bunch of surfing penguins. It's shot in a unique "mockumentary" style which makes the movie look fresh and surprisingly, and also allows the filmmakers to adhere less strictly to story development, and allows them to load the movie with a joke per second (NB, the movie also delivers a solid, intriguing, well-developed plot, but the mockumentary style allows the storytelling to be a lot faster, sharper, more off the cuff.Paradoxically, to reproduce the -- usually undesirable -- "wobbly hand- held cam" effect in CGI, the studio had to go to fairly extreme length, with a cameraman filming the CGI framework off a large screen with a specially revamped hand-held camera.Anyway, the result is a very fresh, very funny cartoon that looks simply amazing (those waves look wayyyy better than in reality). The voice artists also did an amazing job. This one probably caters more to adult viewers, but kids will certainly get a hoot out of it, too. I can highly recommend it!PS: try this if the also penguin-themed "Happy Feet" bored your socks off.
