Well the movie is not that bad in actual! Sure it doesn't have a great story line, but its better than the most movies of of this kind which i happen to have suffered overtime. Acting is really good and dialogues are mature which was a nice surprise for me. Sure it seems that someone has made a movie after properly doing their homework.
It is made with a different sort of perspective and has more to it than a couple of hot girls showing off their body which is sadly what most of "summer surf beach movies" are made off these days and may not appeal to all users. But i found it interesting and recommend it.
Also it contains some fun and witty stuff so you may get laugh every now and then :)

I got carried away by IMDb's 7.8/10 rating for this movie. Turned out to be 90 minutes of unadulterated torture.Some guys surf board gets stolen and it turns out the guy who stole it is the valley. The guy whose board is stolen gathers a motley group of friends who are all lame. They set off to retrieve the board. But only once when they get the board they now want revenge. Its actually pathetic even trying to describe the plot The acting is pathetic. The story line is rubbish at best.Am seriously wondering who the 58 people are who ensured this movie is ranked so high here and what there frame of mind was to vote accordingly. Too bad IMDb doesn't allow to rank less than one. If i had my way i wouldn't even give it a rating of 0.Do yourself a favor and stay away from this one.
I love surfer flicks. It's not a good one, but it's watchable. It's a cool beach flick. The main guy is kinda cool too. The blonde surfer type. Some of the chicks are hot. It's a laidback surfer film. Nothing to be learned. It's cool!
I don't know. Watch it if that sounds cool.

The title is very misleading and I do not see why they put National Lampoon in front of this movie and why did they call it surf party? When I started to watch this movie I did not have very high expectations about the content and thought this would be like another hyperactive T&A movie with a surf theme.
To my surprise, I found out this was not true. Instead this is a coming of age movie that tells a story about some friends on a journey to find a stolen surf board and why the surf board got stolen. Main characters are likable and the acting feels normal. The movie flows along in a nice pace and I never got bored or looked at the clock while watching this movie.
This movie reminds me of teen movies from the late 70's like The Van (1977) and Malibu Beach (1978). The movie also has some quirky characters appearing like Joan Jett and Lee Ving. The only thing missing here is Steve Oliver as Dugan, getting into a fight and yelling, "Nobody calls Dugan a turd!"
As a surf comedy and a National Lampoon movie, there is no nudity, but the girls show some skin in bikini's. I think the movie tries to rely on storytelling and characters rather than showing T&A to keep viewers interested though the movie.
A modern surf comedy that feels like a late 70's surf comedy? A pleasant surprise.

All in all this was way funnier and fresher than I'd expected.
Three buddies go in search of a handmade beautiful surfboard that gets stolen.
Nicely put together and all in all an easy view.
It's never gonna win an Oscar but it is well made and if you like stoner surfer movies then this ain't bad at all - nothing' too offensive but as a buddy movie I've seen a lot worse.
We enjoyed the summer of our youth vibe, it really is pretty good if you just want to chill and watch a movie. Some nice surfing sequences and the obligatory stoners and chicks - no brainer stuff...
