Movie Reviews of Ride the Wild Surf

Movie Review: Fun in the sun and surf
Summary: 3 Stars

This ain't Gone With the Wind or Citizen Kane but it's a fun romp in the surf of Hawai'i. It's a Beach Party movie with a serious edge. Great surfing footage and beautiful locations on the north shore of Oah'u make this film a treat for the eyes, not to mention the lovely Shelly Fabares and Barbara Eden.

Movie Review: Big Waves
Summary: 3 Stars

The previous reviews about the movie being all about the waves is correct. The plot was quite boring. Definitely, a "Grade B" movie. But the waves were quite nice. Although, filming isn't very good, and it's quite obvious the stars of the movie were not doing the actual surfing.

Movie Review: Yep. It's a surfin' movie
Summary: 3 Stars

Definitely a product of its time, if you are the kind of person who could watch people surf for hours then this is the movie for you! Lots of beautiful footage of Hawaii and some fun parts to it. Loved the Nike-Zeus skyrocket bit, but then again I'm an Air Defense Artillery guy.

Movie Review: Ride the Wild Surf is fun!
Summary: 3 Stars

This is a good old movie that was filmed in Hawaii so many years ago. It is fun to see all the old things in Hawaii and just listen to Jan and Dean again. Fabian isn't a great actor, but is fun to watch. Don't like Shelly Fabares with blonde hair, though.

Movie Review: Barbara Eden is fun to watch but otherwise not all that great
Summary: 2 Stars

On the one hand, the movie is an interesting time machine back to "60's surfer flicks." No one swears and there's barely a hint of sex going on. But it was clearly shot on a tight budget, the writing is often extra bad, and not all of the actors can act. More music would have helped and there's too much stock surfing footage used. There are however some nice location shots. The young Barbara Eden seems to be having fun in the film and her character is amusingly loopy. The other woman in the film looks like they fried her hair into platinum and her hair is gonna crack off of her head any second. Oh, the 1960's.....
