Slippery When Wet

If you want to see the COOLEST kids of the 50's catching HUGE waves and doing all kind of crazy stuffs! then I recommend this movie, but if you want a GOOD film quality then this is NOT for you.

The reason that this movie wasn't so good is because of the soundtrack which didn't fit with the movie. The background music is always slow instrumental jazz, I don't hate jazz but it just didn't fit with the cool moves of the surfers (specially with the moves in slow-motion). Also, the color quality of the film is kind of annoying at times, and there isn't to much action as Surf Crazy.

I know that this is the first Bruce Brown film, in the intro he explain that he didn't had to much budget to make this movie better. But at least, the film was successfuly enought to make another movie with better soundtrack, editing and action (Surf Crazy).

Warning: Most of theses documentaries are silent, so you won't hear the character's voices but you will hear Bruce Brown narrating. Bruce Brown is not SOO good in narration but he is not the worst.

P.S: I also know that Bruce Brown's masterpiece is Endless Summer (1967), but I only want to know how cool and rocking the 50's were.

Adios.

I think this movie was pretty good for a guy of 20 Bruce Brown his first film and only $5000 to get it done good on you well done.

Bruce Browns first surfing film... Need I say any more? A great look at surfing makes ya want to quit work and go surfing..
