Summary: sweet as a nut
Review: by far one of the best surf films ever. the camera work is simply amazing and the music captures the essence of the film perfectly. i reccommend getting the soundtrack along with the film. just as the old irish man in the film puts it, this film is "sweet as a nut"

Summary: Not bad
Review: Compared to other surf films being flooded into the market these days, this is not bad. Music is good, footage is good (note: SHOT ON FILM, not video). It was somewhat hard to figure out where they were. We have clear scenery change, but no indicator to tell us where they really were except for the traditional Irish folk music that obviously indicated they were surfing Ireland. Director's commentary is witty and insightful and gives us perspective that few surf films give us and basically provides a good reason to watch it again -- and again. The version of this DVD I purchased in a local surf shop included a second disc; a CD with the soundtrack from the film. Very nice and a unique marketing and packaging idea. It actually convinced me to purchase the package. More importantly, the music is actually good (I was disappointed, though that the Irish folk music used in the film was not included on the soundtrack CD). But as a film, come on, it's only about 45 minutes long (with special feature bonus material, about an hour). It can't possibly be that difficult to compile film to make it last longer than an hour. Anything less than an hour these days, let's face it, is somewhat of a disappointment. Jack Johnson's involvement added to the film, though. Nicely done, let's just have more of it. I'm glad to have it in my DVD collection, though.

Summary: New breed
Review: Dont want too spoil it to much, because I didnt really know what to expect. Saw it 3 times in a row. One of the best Ive seen - enough to come back and comment on it.

Summary: Ohhh, soothing...
Review: FUN TITLE! So Jack J. is one of the greatest song writers out there today along with Thom Yorke, Ben Gibbard and John Roderick. This is a great film. No, you really can't call it that, it is more of an exploration really. This is really just a beautiful thing. Call it what you want. But the fact remains, it's great footage, great music, and darn good surfing. Way to go Jack! This is just fun to watch really. Some great shots (I do movies) I want to know where Jack went to school. I know he majored in film, but they turned out one fine film maker. Check out September Sessions as well, more of a sirfing film than this one, but still, the music will do you good.

Summary: So nice to watch on a winter afternoon
Review: I always enjoy Jacks music and this is full of it. Also includes some of my favorite surfers, esp. Brad Gerlach. Just a fun movie.

Summary: Pretty boring
Review: I got really tired of seeing the same old bottom turns and off the lips over and over again. Most of the waves are quite small and the best and largest waves come at the end of the DVD. I fast forwarded through most of it. You'll probably lose interest early, as I did.

If you want a really thrilling DVD on surfing, get the Billabong Odyssey, it's simply unreal!!

Summary: The Music is Horrible.
Review: I love surfing movies but this one stinks. The surfing is interesting to watch but the music sucked big time. It put me to sleep it was so bad.
