The best faith-based film ever made, an uplifting, entertaining and wonderfully-acted account of surfer Bethany Hamilton's life before and after a shark bit her arm off in the waters off her favorite Hawaiian beach.

Soul Surfer seems simply too sugar-coated to be true.
April 08, 2011
A by-the-numbers biopic about young surfer Bethany Hamilton.
April 08, 2012
All that separates this from made-for-TV territory is another strong turn from gifted young lead AnnaSophia Robb.
June 30, 2013
A solid and inspiring story about faith and family.
September 21, 2011
A succession of would-be rousing clichés.

You wonder why this movie isn't a documentary, rather than a synthetic feature film with the heroine's arm digitally removed.
June 23, 2013
A well-intentioned, big-hearted, wannabe-crowd-pleaser that just happens to be so incompetently made that it might be rejected by Oprah's channel.

It's ultimately let down by some heavy-handed sentimentality, an over-abundance of Bible-bashing and some dodgy CGI sequences.
April 08, 2011
It's Bethany and Alana's friendship - its sturdiness and vulnerability, its laughs and sincere apologies - that rules the day.
September 25, 2011
A well-meaning, handsomely staged biopic of the top Hawaii-based surfing star Bethany Hamilton who lost her arm to a shark in 2003 at the age of 13...

Hamilton is played, blandly, by Anna Sophia Robb, and her devoted parents, less bland, are played by Dennis Quaid and Helen Hunt. The surfing footage, much of it shot off the coast of Kauai, is not bland at all.
