The Endless Summer

A film review by Christopher Null - Copyright © 2003 Filmcritic.com

This watershed documentary follows a pair of surfers as the visit Africa and Australia, where surfing (at the time, at least) was either a curiosity or completely unknown. Very funny, the film has no sound shot on location, narrated after the fact by the cameraman and occasional surfer Bruce Brown. As surfers Mike Hynson and Robert August teach natives to surf and get chased by dolphins and zebras, you can't help but laugh and feel good while watching their lighthearted antics.
