Well I have to rate this movie with at least 4 stars as I would get mad due to the money spent on it if I had to admit that it only deserves 2 (which it does!).
I didn't expect anything spectacular. I thought it might be a meaningless but entertaining flick with some good surfing in it. Unfortunately it wasn't! I bought a German version of it. I don't know why but it's called "Gefährliche Brandung 2: Liquid Bridge" over here which makes you believe it has at least anything to do with the first one (Gefährliche Brandung: point break). Well it hasn't. Unluckily it hasn't anything in common with it either.
The movie itself is pretty boring. There is not much happening and unlike others I couldn't find any touching moments. I didn't care about the bloke and his dad. Neither did I care about the french chick (though I gotta admit she was cute) who left her boyfriend (for whom I actually felt more sympathy than for the main character).
The scene in which a girl gets hit by a lightning and glows blue afterward has already caught enough attention in here but it really is ridiculous indeed.
The worst thing though was, that the surf scenes seemed just to be taken off some other surf movies and had nothing to do with the actual movie. There were far to less surf scenes in it anyway.
After watching the movie in German I wanted to give it another try and watch it in English especially as I like the Australian accents but I had to discover that the German subtitles cannot be turned off. That made me mad and so I didn't watch it again.
All in all the movie is okay when you are bored and haven't got to do anything anyway but don't expect it to change your state of mind.
