This was a wonderfully funny comedy that kept me laughing throughout the entire movie. Wonderful cast - evident in that none of the actors try too hard to be funny, instead, the comedy is very organic and the characters are written in to match the comedy. Rach ( Sarah Louise Collidge ) and Duey's ( Billy White) relationship dynamic is hilarious. - look out for the dream scene which ends in disaster.
The only problem I had was there wasn't enough time spent at the wedding which could have been played up more- it was built up during the movie then came and went too quickly. I gave the movie a "7" - Strongly recommend to anyone looking for a good laugh.

Don't walk into this movie expecting anything like an academy award winning masterpiece because you won't get it. What you will get is 79 minutes of stupid male type humor. The plot is kind of absurd and the films budget feels very low, however, the acting is above average, and kept me laughing most of the way through. Hardly the most thought-provoking film I've ever seen. However it works as a Friday movie with your friends. It's dumb but, in my opinion, quite hilarious. I'd recommend this movie if you're not expecting something that will keep on the edge of your seat and bursting with surprises.
It doesn't require much attention, or much, if any, thinking. Overall, a very funny movie I would watch again.

I watched it and thought it was pretty funny... very stupid, but funny. The thing that can sink this type of stupid, slapstick style movie is if it starts going into places where it doesn't belong, Like getting too serious or introducing a different type of humor. "Malibu Crush, sticks to its aesthetics as stupid as they are and never sells itself out. Therefore, I think it works, and is in fact a well-made guy-humor comedy.
The acting from the two leads (James Pratt) and (Billy White) is good and you root for the main characters as they run their scams. I think this movie will only appeal to a very specific audience, but you can say the same thing about a most comedies.
Runtime is 79 minutes and in that time it cracked me up several times.

It would be misleading to claim this is a brilliant film (in either regard - as comedy or character study), it's an assured indie picture that finds its footing and achieves a surprising level of comedy throughout its running time.
The movie was a breath of fresh air in many ways, it's one of the best independent comedies I've seen in a long time because it avoids the politics of film making and sticks to just comedy.
Almost all M-rated comedies produced today are PC and unfunny. The PC-rating has become a hindrance to film studios' sensibilities - everything is PG-13, saving the shameless Unrated jokes to be replaced by politically correct safety words with zero humor. The occasional released M-rated comedy, as such, is infrequently modest.
I hope Malibu Crush becomes a cult flick in the years to come. It's deserving of acknowledgment and while we may live in an era saturated with unnecessary politically correct comedy, I finished watching Malibu Crush hoping to see these guys again. And that's a rare feeling these days.

Malibu Crush is a film that doesn't attempt to be smart. This should be evident from the title. However, the film is good at not trying to be smart and passes a point where it becomes a masterpiece in dumb comedy and keeps you watching.
The wide cast of characters keeps the film's plot fresh and in spite of some ridiculous plot elements the film manages to burst quite a few guts with its utter retardedness. The film's plot actually has a pretty smart setup, "A guy trying to track down his dream girl in a foreign country, but it's the comedy that happens that's why you watch not the story. The movie is luckily not a one-joke film either. The amount of variety makes most comedies seem very bland by comparison.
The film is a brilliant no-brainer, but a nightmare for lovers of intelligent cinema.
