Amazon.co.uk Review
Wax up your boards and hang 10 (or whatever) where the big waves come crashing in: off the English coast at Cornwall. Huh? No endless summer? No two girls for every boy? No, but in Blue Juice one can see what most of us probably never even thought about: the British Isles are indeed islands and, not incongruously, there's a considerable surfing culture with a handful of home-grown legends. One of the latter is JC (Sean Pertwee), a skilled surfer so driven by the challenge and so dedicated to his mates that it threatens his meandering romance with the long-suffering Chloe (Catherine Zeta-Jones). The two have planned an extensive, around-the-world trip as a kind of prelude to discussing marriage, but the arrangement is threatened when three of JC's old childhood chums arrive from London. One of them (played by Steven Mackintosh) is a famous record producer who has sold his soul (in every sense) to reap profits from fashionable electronica. Another (Ewan McGregor) is a chronic screw-up resorting to hustling junk to unsuspecting customers. The last (Peter Gunn) is an anxious sort, terrified of marrying his long-time girlfriend. Together, these four guys look like a pack of nowhere men and they know it: while the story largely focuses on JC and Chloe, there's plenty of material for the supporting characters to indulge in mucho self-loathing. The film never quite jumps off the screen and the script may be hampered by too many layers of character eccentricity, but this is still an enjoyable piece with some fine comic performances. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, funny, a joy to watch, 10 Oct 2000
By A Customer
The king of Cornwall's surf is forced to make a choice, waves or women! It does not matter what he chooses either way this is an excellent film that will appeal to surfers, and even townies! It is not a surfing film but a "life" film that features surfing, comedy, love and life, watch it, you will not be disappointed!

5.0 out of 5 stars it's not a good film, it's a great film ..., 25 Sep 2001
I first watched this when I was fast approaching my 30th birthday so the lead character JC really got to me, suddenly for no apparent reason I wanted to be getting 'trifled up' with Catherine Zeta Jones. It's a great film, and you surfers out there? watch out for the round brown fishes...

5.0 out of 5 stars Javelin_1_uk, 4 Jun 2006
This review is from: Blue Juice [VHS] [1995] (VHS Tape)
You will either love or hate this film.

Those that love it and cherish it like a loved LP and are part of a tribe.

This film is great, in my eyes, from start to finish. In addition to what other reviews have said, this film really sums up southern England in 1995 (when it was released) featuring an opening sound track from the short lived Heavy Stereo. (Freedom bug was only ever released as a B side and the version used in this film only ever made it to white label) For a film released in an era dominated by the (then new) indie scene this film features a refreshing and soulfull guest appearance from Edwin Starr. You may love this film, and if you do, you will watch it again and again and again...
