View from a Blue Moon

Absolutely breathtaking from A to Z. Having watched plenty of surf movies, this one might rank around my second favorite, after, of course, The Endless Summer. I completely agree with whats has been said by the other review: this is a magnificent movie that will keep your eyes wide open during the whole thing. The beauty of the aerial wide shots, the poetry of all the scenes, (both surfing and not surfing) and the way they are so impeccably structured give an powerful sense of beauty and completion. I would give an overall mark of 8/10, no hesitation. I would even recommend this movie to people who don't usually watch surf movies. Indeed, the beauty of the images will appeal to anyone looking for a stunning viewing experience.

One of the best surfing movies, many great photos and clips of the surf. More in depth compared to other movies.

Yes only waves, no real story, no trouble. Only good music, cuts, waves and fun. I have a lot other surf movies with stories, so its no problem, to have one without all the stuff i need to listen. :-)

Like All Brain Farm releases- its Just Pretty Pictures..Nothing Else. We know Florence surfs..and...what else?? That's it..nothing more? Why even make a film. There is no story and you learn Nothing about the person being filmed. Any ambition in life beyond the self absorbed selfish surfing lifestyle. what about his family- father/mother,siblings, his friends his girlfriend, boyfriend, kids, his competitors? great filmmaking is much more than just pretty pictures. Someday a young extreme athlete will be brave and honest enough to open up their entire life to a filmmaker. Florence is obviously not that athlete and it will take more talented filmmakers than the gear obsessed dudes at Brain Farm to pull it off. This is just an expensive surfing highlights promo reel. We've all seem this a zillion times before,,,just the face has changed on the north shore.

I'm a HUGE fan of john john and this movie is amazing. it does a great job at portraying his point of view while he surfs and it's fun to get to know him a little bit! lovely quality too (pretty sure its 4k). i don't usually give reviews but i've seen this movie so many times, i couldn't help it!
