Seems like a woman will like this type of film that explores and analyses the feelings. Guys could probably care less. Myself not into psychology of feelings displayed on the big screen. Poor acting other than Dinosaur Boy and dialog was kinda out there in nowheresvillie. Most interactions between main characters seems stressed and unbelievable. Waste of time for me.

No action etc, this is a film about a woman coming to terms with her past through the experiences on a road trip with her unpleasant friend and some characters she meets on the way. Genuine laughs and some good movie attributes. I was most pleased to guess her favourite dinosaur correctly. Can't really justify an 8 or above as this is getting into seriously good cinema territory but this is a whole jump ahead of Hallmark etc.

I really liked this film. I think there are a lot of films out there that kind of brush over pain and struggle. They are like "oh this person had bad things happen to them and bam now they are fine". This film allows the characters to hurt and be real! I liked that it's not super Hollywood it's a real indie drama. The cinematography was also stunning! Makes me want to take a drive up the coast.

Open your hearts, reviewers who gave this stunning film less than at least 9 stars. This is one of the best dramas I have ever seen. It's not a typical surfing movie--no, not by far. It starts a bit slow, but then it really picks up, and opportunities for love and acceptance begin to pour. Bravo to all involved! You have really given your viewers excellence and a perfected philosophy of love, forgiveness, acceptance, and hope.

There is very little to like about this movie. The writing is schmaltzy and the story movies slowly. The character of Vera was bad enough to tolerate, but when you throw in the village idiot, Noah, whose acting was unrelentingly bad and grating, you have the recipe for a movie that constantly leaves you wishing for it to come to a merciful end.
