Amazon.co.uk Review

With refreshing energy, Blue Crush is the kind of movie that girls and young women deserve to see more of. It's mostly for them (although nice tans and bikinis will attract the guys), and it rejuvenates the surf-movie tradition by showing real girls with real friendships, coping with absent parents, borderline poverty, rocky romance, and the challenge of raising a kid sister. For young Hawaiian Anne Marie (Kate Bosworth), those responsibilities are motivations to excel as a champion-class surfer--if she can overcome the fear of drowning, which she nearly did in a previous wipeout. Supportive friends (Girlfight's Michelle Rodriguez, and Sanoe Lake) help her reach the climactic competition on Oahu's infamous Bonzai Pipeline, and like Saturday Night Fever, this engaging film uplifts the working class without condescension, riding high toward the joy of achievement. As an amateur surfer, director John Stockwell (Crazy/Beautiful) captures the extreme thrill of the sport while respecting the forces of nature and human behaviour. --Jeff Shannon

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!!, 23 Jan 2006
It's great to finally see a film where surfing isn't potrayed as the perfect lifestyle and an easy sport. What's great about this film is that it shows that not everything is perfect in the world. Although Annmarie's life might seem great from the outside, I bet that bringing up a rebellious sister and struggling with near poverty is no cup of tea. The photography in this movie is amazing, the way that it switches from over the water to under the water. The background of Hawaii is beautiful, and the Director has managed to capture the dangerous reality of surfing despite all of these factors. A must-see movie: captures the harsh reality of life with a feel-good ending!

4.0 out of 5 stars Go big or go home...., 20 Mar 2003
By M. S. Fawcett "mfcufc" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
See this film for the surfing shots alone! Brilliant filming above and below the water makes this film stand out from others in the surfing genre. Hawaii's North Shore is the real star of this movie and there is no better advert for paradise (although this film lifts itself above run-of-the-mill by pointing out that Hawaii also has a darker side). The five star US tourist lifestyle is neatly contrasted with the poverty and xenophobia of the islanders. It is a cute story with cute actors and cute scenery but set against a harder edged background. No mean feat to pull this off. The final surfing scenes actually had me sitting on the edge of my seat - I can't remember the last time a film had that effect on me. Buy it and enjoy....

4.0 out of 5 stars Aloha!, 6 Feb 2005
By L. Howard - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I love this movie - I know a lot of reviewers here have bombed the storyline etc but it's fun. The Hawaiian scenery is beautiful and the fact that Kate Bosworth, Michelle Rodriguez and Sanoe Lake trained in surfing for months to do all their own stunts for the movie makes it even better. Yeah, the story may be basic and a little predicable but I'd still recommend it - if just for the stunning Hawaiian scenery and the great soundtrack.
