Blue Crush does have the grace to get two things right- David Hennings (Very Bad Things) on photography greatly captures the surfing sequences, inparticular the beginning ones that give off a colorful, vibrant feel, and also the girls in the movie have a realistic attitude on life, if realism for you is girls who are on Hawaii surfing in their free time. While too much of the injected skag of usual turns and characters are found in Blue Crush, not to mention the always important climactic contest (can a sports film not lead to a major contest in the end?) and (spoiler) picture of the winner on the cover of surfing magazine, while all that is there, there is an audience for Blue Crush, and they ride that wave out.

"We are the youth of nation"
Pretty enjoyable story about beautiful women do extreme surfing to prepare for a competition and one of them (Kate Bosworth) falling in love with a football player. I love that John Stockwell directed this and a few years later directs Into the Blue which is also based around water with a different story I absolutely love that movie! Unfortunate how Blue Crush has a 5.7 it deserves better even a little.
Popcorn With Big Waves
In Hawaii, Anne Marie Chadwick (Kate Bosworth) is a local surfer girl, who had an accident three years ago when she was on the top of her career. She almost died in a huge wave, but now she is preparing for an international competition, with the support of the best friends Eden (Michelle Rodriguez) and Lena (Sanoe Lake), and her younger sister Penny Chadwick (Mika Boorem). Anne is traumatized with her accident, and is quite afraid of the big waves, but she aims to achieve a sponsor to follow her career and have the necessary financial support. Some days before the competition, she has a crush on the football player Matt Tollman (Matthew Davis). 'Blue Crush' is a good popcorn film, having a shallow story but compensated by the wonderful places and the big waves in Hawaii, and the very beautiful young cast. An excellent entertainment for a Saturday or Sunday afternoon for the whole family. My vote is six.
