Costa Rican Summer

Could had use alot more Pam influence could had jacked up the rating a bit.

You had to know this movie was going to be dumb when you watched it. But that is what makes this a fun movie. Dumb lines, bad wigs, nice location. You dont have to think, just watch and laugh at them. I would have given it a higher score if I based it on other movies of this quality. Dont judge just watch.

One of the worst movies that i saw in my life. One of the genres is comedy and i didn't laugh all movie. I don't understand the propose of this movie,really a bad movie. The story is to week and in the 2000's i saw great comedy movies and this film its on my blacklist.I subscribe all the bad reviews that are made on this movie. The actor is bad,the story is week and the movie is really one of the worst movie of all time. I think if i directed i film i do better then this.In my rating list i rated more then 600 movies and this is the only one that i gave one. My review is only to advertise the people that want to see the movie do choose another one, because all movies are better the Costa Rica summer.

Not having any expectations for this film and they were somewhat met. Labeled as a teen comedy yet feels very generc and bland. Everything is quite predictable and there seemed to be several little plots. One plot involved the lead character trying to help save the beach for his aunt (or something of that sort), the other involved his two friends trying to get the attention of two Swedish women (bad accents came across from them).

Peter Dante seemingly received top billing for his role as the aging legend surfer who was trying to get back on his feet and in shape (occasionally had fantasies of Pamela Anderson- we wonder how she wounded up in this film).

Overall Costa Rican Summer doesn't exactly provide anything new, it does have a low budget but the scenery of the island and beaches are well done. Some t&a of the two Swedish women (about 4 scenes). Otherwise don't expect any great, funny or special.

This movie was supposed to be a teen comedy? Ehm, it never got anywhere near being a teen comedy. It was much more like watching a creature with its final death gurgles! It was unbearable.

The story was lacking contents. It seemed like someone had an idea during a drinking party, and that idea somehow made it to a movie.

Throughout the entire movie, I laughed maybe once. And that was at the vomiting scene. That, however, was priceless though. The rest of the movie was attempting to be funny, but never got its head above the waves.

Out of the entire cast, only Susan Ward (playing aunt Carla) was the only one doing a good job. The teens had no emotions and lacked the ability to come through on the screen. The guy who played Dinger (Peter Dante), wow... that was unbelievably unbearable to watch! And how they managed to get Pamela Anderson into this movie is beyond me. But just take a look at her "acting", she seems like she doesn't really want to it as well.

And what was up with the fake Swedish accent? People from Sweden do not sound like drunken German people in a bad World War II movie. I am from Denmark, and I know what Swedish people sound like when speaking English - and this is not it at all!

This movie is wrongfully labeled 'comedy'.

You might like it if you are into surfing and enjoy mindless movies.

I just read on IMDb that there is a part 2 on the way. That fact is simply beyond my comprehension! My advise to you is to stay well clear of this movie! It is a waste of time, and trust me, you don't want to let an hour and a half go to waste on this. Sadly, I did, and I am scarred for life.
