Amazon.com Surf's Up is a computer-animated sports mockumentary about penguin surfing contests, which makes it stand out from the crowd of penguin movies. The story unfolds as it would on ESPN, with interviews (with penguins) overlapping footage of (penguin) surfing action, gradually unveiling the tale of Cody Maverick (voiced by Shia LaBeouf, Holes), a young penguin from Antarctica with dreams of winning a surfing competition--a competition named after his idol, the missing Big Z (Jeff Bridges, The Big Lebowski). But when he joins the competition, Cody finds his zeal for winning may not be enough to defeat the cruel reigning champ, Tank Evans (Diedrich Bader, Grim & Evil). The story of Surf's Up is typical stuff: Youngster learns to value friendship over material success. But the documentary style gives the movie a different rhythm from the usual feature-length cartoon; it stutters and skips around, dithers on side topics, and backtracks to catch up with supporting characters. Some viewers may be annoyed, but others--perhaps the more media-savvy--will find it a refreshing change of pace. (Kids who don't watch much sports, however, may just find it confusing.) Surf's Up also features the voices of James Woods (Hercules), Zooey Deschanel (Elf), and Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite). --Bret Fetzer More Surf's Up on Amazon.com  CD Soundtrack |  Visit our Surf's Store |  Surf's Up: Coloring and Activity Book | Stills from Surf's Up (click for larger image)

Doped-up chicken should not be in a kids movie June 24, 2009 GRANT REIBELT (Sydney, Australia) 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
simple. Having a chicken who appears to be off its face on drugs in an animated kids movie is bad taste - even in these lax times. Sure its great for the adults but allowing drug culture into a kids movie is bogus. What's next - nude simulated sex for Barbie Dolls in Toy Story 3? Let kids have their slice of entertainment without inserting vice. They will get plenty of time to be bombarded with adult stuff when they are teens and hopefully more informed to have an opinion as to like or dislike.

Video came in a case in good condition, and movie does not skip. What more can you ask for really.
