Blue Crush 2

I'm not much into made up movies, it was a happy end one, but since Icame to watch it more than once I concider it great. It's oldschool and have a great plot and summer vibes. A human story told in a great way. Love it!

Dana (Sasha Jackson) is a rich California girl. Her father is pushing her to settle down but she is restless to follow her surfer mother's footsteps back to her home country of South Africa. She surfs the waves and takes the same Polaroids as her mother. She befriends a black surfer named Pushy (Elizabeth Mathis). She is confronted by alpha dog Tara. There is a community of surfers who is squatting on the beach. Tim is a nice photographer. Grant is the charming surfer but he could be bad news. While chasing down her mother's stuff that was stolen, Dana and Pushy discover something darker.

This is more or less a TV movie that is vastly inferior to the original. The original's cast has charisma and spunk. Sasha Jackson is a really pretty girl but she is mostly a Polaroid copy. Going to South Africa has some potential but mostly it is indistinguishable from countless other beach movies. There is plenty of pretty people on the beach and surfing. Then it tries to add some tough drama but it plays more like an after-school special. Even the surfing doesn't seem as exciting. The drama feels manufactured, the thrills are light and the actors don't stick.

You've got a bunch of barely out of high school kids living the life out in Africa. A surfer movie, which still tries to put in a bit of crime solving, a bit of a road trip, a bit of a love triangle and a bit of family drama. The acting in many parts was pretty mediocre, only a few highlights in there. Especially one scene where the father argues with the daughter sounds so rehearsed it's just ends up feeling weird. Another one was the in a tryout for a sponsorship contract in which the commentators sounded so bored you wondered if they hadn't been given their dose of Red Bull. The only thing this movie is consistent about is the use of music in almost every scene.

There is no surprise in how the movie plays out, but on the other hand I guess it doesn't really try to be anything other than what it is: a feel good surfer movie. If you're into surfing you'll have loads of scenery to watch, and probably also get quite a bit of inspiration out of the waves. Others may just as well come up with something else to watch.

I wasn't expecting much for this movie; however, as I watched my expectations lowered very quickly.

The acting is sub-par, as is the plot in general. The plot is not very complex; although by seeing the commercial for this film that secret is already blown off.

It seemed as if the directors just plucked outgoing teenagers from the region where they were supposed to be from, shoved them into bikinis, gave them a script, and then recorded.

The most frustrating quality of this movie is the volume. It frequently fluctuated from a soft whisper to an extremely loud burst of sound. Around every 2-3 minutes I had to adjust the volume.

Hardly any redeeming qualities. I turned it off after about 60 minutes. Did not like this movie.

"Blue Crush 2" is the sequel of "Blue Crush" and this one has to do with a girl who is haunted by the memory of her deceased mother and she goes to South Africa to fulfill her mother's dream of surfing in Jefferys Bay (J-Bay).

I did not like this movie as much as the first and I think that this movie is a repeat of the first because and in the first movie we had a girl who was haunted by her own daemons and she was trying so hard to get rid from them and fulfill her own dream (this is a difference).

Finally I think that this movie It's not as good as the first one I believe that the only interpretation that was good was Sasha Jackson's who played as Dana.
