I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Very Cool!!!
Boring
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
*Yawn* another underdog movie. This one goes nowhere. Apart from Costa Rica, which looks nice.Once the novelty of stereotyping of the main characters has worn off, that's about it as far as the plot goes. After which nothing happens. Goth girl says nothing, geeky guy gets sexually wound-up by local girl, then nothing happens. Random characters constantly appear, say a few lines and vanish, their 'joke' exhausted, never to be seen again. Just when everything grinds to a halt, show a few bikini-clad girls for everyone to drool over.Hang on... these guys are supposedly learning to surf within a week. A few day/night sequences later and no surfing. I check the time - what...half way through the film and nothing has happened. Then there's the gratuitous topless scene. Snore, boring, eject.Oddly enough there's more fun to be had in laughing at all the lame 10* reviews of this movie, which do nothing to shift the fact that Surf School is well embedded in the IMDb bottom 100 and not likely to budge for a very long time.
All i wanted from this comedy was to laugh. I did, frequently, so Surf School gets a thumbs up. It concerns some young American students who go to Costa Rica, nicely filmed on location, to beat their rival students at a surf contest. Corey Sevier is our hunky hero, try not laughing when Rip calls him "hairdo!, Jordan who leads some rather appealing misfits. Thers Sisqo," Brothers don't surf!" and Laura Bell Bundy as a very hot goth girl, the guy who played Taz was funny and poor virgin Larry!Harland Williams plays Rip, their somewhat water-logged surf instructor, Williams is funny in this, I think he's much better in little supporting parts than leads. Some of his dialog is clear off the cuff and very funny. Our heroes have little bread so they bunk at a commune run by '60's radicals. The couple is hysterically played by Taylor Negron and Diana Delano. Negron is always funny, they should bottle this dude! He's really funny here with some odd accent. Diana Delano should get big kudos for bravery for playing this part! The usual people are here too, the sexy Latina, the monkey who justs wants to be loved, the creepy popular girls, the surf bum. Its pretty funny gags one after the other. The pacing is a little slow, but it clocks in under 80 minutes so... Oh, did I mention the Swedish bikini triplets? Worth your buck right there. Actually there isn't much sex here at Surf School, in fact Larry learns what being a man truly means. The "Twister" scene is hilarious. and yes, they do win, but didn't you figure that? This is a silly, funny flick, thats really perfect for lazy summer viewing. Tunmbs up! Oh wait thats not my thumb! Heh
Ordered the movie and finally got it and watched it with 3 mates. we laughed our arses off and the girls were hot, hot, hot. The 3 Swedish girls killed us. The surf bum was lunatic and we saw him in Rocketman. He said some things that were so funny we replayed the parts as soon as they were over. The speech he does on when he glued some blokes package to a fish was genius. Then when he talks some crazy language at the end is hilarious. The funniest was when he's telling the sotry of the ghost girl he was in love with. Also the monkey spanking was good stuff. The girl who played the Spanish maid was so killer sexy. But I thought the surf bum made the movie. I'd say it's a 8 out of 10.
Well, if you're a dedicated surfer this isn't the movie for you, so when my brother rented it and I saw the silly cover I wasn't too wild. But this little movie grew on me as it went along. The old couple were a kick with their 60s hippy lifestyle and their obsessive love for each other. Gross at times the way they slobbered on each other but funny. I liked the main boy and his relationship with the goth girl. It was actually a sweet thing and he helped bring her out of her shell. Some of the comedy I didn't get perhaps because I'm not American, but the surf bum was a laugher. My brother told his chums about some of his crazy lines. All in all I liked the film because it was weird in good ways. I had never seen characters like the hippies. I had to forget about my love for surfing and the real sport, but I guess this is a comedy and it's about smiling. I smiled.
