BLUE CRUSH (2002) I had a great time with Blue Crush. It was very entertaining and had some of the years best cinematography. I was in awe of the incredible surfing sequences. We are taken right into the waves and feel as if we are actually there. The surfing scenes couldn't get more perfect. Now the thing I've heard most complain about is the plot in between the amazing surfing scenes. And you know what? It really was not as bad as everyone was saying, in fact, I didn't think it was bad at all. I'll admit it was a little loose, but that's because the movie isn't really about the plot. It was less talk and more action and that was great, it doesn't give the viewer a chance to be bored. I thought they did a really good job with the actual story that was there. I never once found the dialogue snicker worthy. Sure it's not Oscar material, but I have heard some really bad dialogue in teen flicks (She's All That, Summer Catch) and the dialogue in this movie doesn't compare. I also liked the romance. It wasn't that original, yet it was interesting and never bored me. Plus I like how it didn't make up the entire movie and never delayed the kick ass surfing scenes, we spend a lot of time in the water. The realistic ending was also a nice touch. Kate Bosworth was great. She is talented and easy on the eyes. Definitely a star in the making. Sanoe Lake was also good, although she doesn't have much to do other than be supportive of Bosworth's character. Michelle Rodriguez is fine too, but she plays the same tough chick character she always plays. Overall, BLUE CRUSH is a real fun time. The excellent cinematography is almost enough to recommend it alone, but it actually happens to be quite entertaining. It's not the most original movie, but most movies aren't anymore. Everything has already been done in one way or another. I had a great time watching it and that's what counts. Grade: 8/10 or B+ or **** of *****
