I watched this movie, and I can't wait for the series. This is great for kids of all ages. There is absolutely no profanity, it's family friendly, and a fun show to watch. This is not a show for an adult want to be kid, so stop bashing our kid shows you childish adults. I'm glad to see some of our kids promoting positive values, and being good role models that our young people can follow. Parents if you're looking for a show that your kids can watch and get a good clean laugh from good clean jokes then Malibu Rescue is the show, and Series to watch. This is like a Baywatch for KIDS!!!
Not actually terrible. That's not to say it's anything close to good, but it did surprise me ever so slightly; especially after an extremely ropy first 5-10 minutes.
Ricardo Hurtado (Tyler) is OK as the film's lead, while Alkoya Brunson (Eric) has most of the somewhat amusing moments. The premise is watchable, though only after the awful initial school scenes that made me fear the worst. Once they reach Malibu everything does move in the correct direction - still with some major issues, of course.
There's also a running gag throughout featuring Michael Mourra (Jeffy), which is mildly funny; he's used for the predictable interludes, but it is done in a way that is kinda different. I appreciate that.
Great call making 'Malibu Rescue' run for just 69mins, any longer would have deteriorated my rating massively. I see this has also turned into a television series, I'm not sure I could put up with it for 8 episodes; though I'll probably return when the sequel film is released.

Super cute and fun! Perfect summer movie, whole hearted with good jokes. Made me smile!
Look, this isn't "Schindler's List." Don't expect cinematic, dramatic grandeur; this is light, sunny and sandy family-friendly fare that thoroughly thrilled our young ones and kept the adults sufficiently amused. Sometimes, especially as the weather warms for the summer months, that's really all any of us need.
If you can accept it as that, without expecting more from it than what it is, you will enjoy it.
Also enjoyable: seeing Steve Sanders back on the beach, especially those of Malibu, just like in those "Beverly Hills: 90210" days. Ziering plays the role well and feels like such a natural by the water. Watch it if for Ziering alone!

Surprised to see so many negative reviews, granted this is no Avenger series or even a Wonder Woman. Neither does this movie pretend to be one, it's a straight up feel good movie and that's what it succeeds in doing.
Dont go with a high expectations and you won't be disappointed
