Whoever is reviewing this movie that doesn't give it a 10 doesn't surf. And has no clue what it would take to:
1. Film this.
2. To be in it 3. To even achieve any of it in this world.
There are so many way this is a masterpiece of human endeavor, similar to going to the moon, set with way more morals and value. Every frame of this movie has artistic merit. Surprisingly so, the score is also subdued and quite supportive.
There's a true story here of a true accomplishment that literally would be impossible until it was achieved by Laird along with the producers, participants, engineers, fellow strap crew, and the waves themselves. This is way bigger than climbing Everest or running marathons or other lame physical achievements.
