A criminally underrated film!!
Kate Bosworth, Michelle Rodriguez, in Bikinis!, the best surfing scenes since Point Break and a fantastic soundtrack. What's not to like?!

Some years ago I went to see Endless Summer II and was surprised how much I enjoyed it. Not so much with Blue Crush, which despite the bikinis and scenery, is pretty boring stuff. Strictly for teen girls. Script by Lizzy Weiss and director John Stockwell from a magazine article.

Blue Crush is the story of Anne Marie(Kate Bosworth), a young girl who doesn’t want to be restrained by her responsibility and just surf the waves. However, after her mom took off with her latest boyfriend, she is stuck taking care of her sister Penny(Mika Boorem) and working as a maid at a local hotel with her friends /roommates Eden(Michelle Rodriguez) and Lena(Sanoe Lake) in order to pay the rent and put food on the table.

God help you, really, if you don't take charge and watch the film with your finger on the fast forward button, careful to precisely turn your head and zip through any scene without a surfboard and a wave.
[I'm really tempted to dock it, after having read that Bosworth, who is just a horrible actress, didn't even do her own stunts! Why hire her then, if you don't mind my asking?

If that film's surprise success means a cineplex full of xeroxes for years to come, I'm getting the fuck out of this wicked game. Now.]

Blue Crush is one of those adaptations of a magazine article, that I went in with absolutely NO expectations, except to maybe get out of the summer heat into a place with A/C . I walked out impressed. Great surfing sequences, and a fairly engaging story.

Instead of watching this movie just go down to the beach.

Filled with clichés, trying way too hard, looks over substance.
What is good about the BD is the sonic presentation, but that's all the good I will say about this movie. -
