Blue Crush
Nothing gets between Anne Marie and her board. Living in a beach shack with three roommates including her rebellious younger sister, she is up before dawn every morning to conquer the waves and count the days until the Pipe Masters surf competition. Having transplanted herself to Hawaii with no one's blessing but her own, Anne Marie finds all she needs in the adrenaline-charged surf scene ... until pro quarterback Matt Tollman comes along. Like it or not, Anne Marie starts losing her balance - and finding it - as she falls for Matt.

Sporting a cast of up-and-coming actresses, John Stockwell's surfing flick offers up a slice of entertainment that acknowledges its roots and whose throw away pleasures arrive with no guilt.

The movie isn't nearly dumb enough to be much beach fun.

Blue Crush has all the trappings of an energetic, extreme-sports adventure, but ends up more of a creaky "Pretty Woman" retread, with the emphasis on self-empowering schmaltz and big-wave surfing that gives pic its title an afterthought.

When the movie attempts to tell a story on land, you might want to bring along a flashlight and a magazine.

Affable yet forgettable...

In all, American girls could do worse than have Blue Crush as their own summer action movie.

The body-doubling and face-pasting are unfortunately blatant.

Tough yet tender surfer heroine story.

Stockwell has made half of a good movie. Now he needs to figure out how to craft a film with words worthy of the beauty of its images.

A big, sexy, sun-splashed thrill ride.

Proves to indeed be the formulaic bore it appears to be, however nicely dressed up (or undressed, depending on one's perspective) it is.

A pure celebration of riding the waves.
