Review of Surf's Up (2007) by Rainer K — 21 Aug 2011
Surf's Up is a mockumentary about surfing featuring penguins (and a chicken resp.) as the protagonists.
As we all know since Happy Feet, penguins make some more or less good animated characters and in Surf's Up they're great.
Although all the characters seem only to be living clichees, the combination of them and the documentary like setup make it a wonderfully witty and original movie.
I even liked the voice acting of two of my least favourite actors, Shia LaBeouf was bearable when I didn't saw his stupid face and Jeff Bridges was hilarious as Geek.
PS: the video game was great too, not much of a challenge but fun.
