Surf´s Up (2007)

In Surf´s Up we get to follow a film crew who´s working on a documentary about the famous surfer Big Z, who been died a few years. And to get so mush facts as possible they turn to Big Z´s biggest fan Cody Maverick. Cody is a surfer too and dreams about winning the Big Z Memorial Surf Off cup and become as good as Big Z ones was. He leaves his home Shiverpool and enters the cup, on Pen Gu Island, to compete against all the best surfers like the ninth cup winner Tank Evens.
Everything is well when Cody arrives to the island but soon he gets in to a fight with Tank and they decide to solve it with a surf off. Cody loses badly because he don´t know how to surf on the big waves and if he don´t find someone willing to train a loser his dream will be lost.

I really like this movie because it´s different from other animated movies: The people behind the camera talks with the characters in the movie and the characters reacts on the film crews presence and looks and waves at the camera, sometime you see the film crews equipment and the camera shakes when they run and so on. It´s a totally new way of making a children’s movie and I like it!
This movie is cute, funny and different. I think that you definitely should see this one!

Grade: 5/5
