This is one of the best movies I have ever seen. The actors was perfect for the role they played and the move shocked my heart for a weird reason, but the movie was so beautiful.

All time favorite. The acting, the true story telling, all very well done with respect to the family. Top 3 surf movies of all time.

I watch this movie today and I was like not expecting it to be as good I just wanted something to watch in this movie actually was better than I expected the actors in it were phenomenal and now I would like to watch this again with my wife probably up there and I knew favorite movie

#MovieReview #Disneyplus #TrueStory #LiveLikeJay #ChasingMavericks Chasing Mavericks, originally a Fox movie now available on Disney+, is a must-watch film that deserves your attention. Based on a true story, this movie showcases Gerard Butler in an early role, portraying a teacher figure in a compelling manner. The narrative follows a fatherless child who perseveres against all odds to achieve his dreams, making for a heartwarming and inspiring story. I appreciate Disney's efforts in bringing such hidden gems to light, allowing audiences to enjoy and appreciate these lesser-known films. The authenticity of the water scenes, using real water instead of relying heavily on CGI, adds a level of realism to the film that enhances the viewing experience. Chasing Mavericks is a captivating movie that offers a mix of drama, inspiration, and genuine emotion. It's a great addition to the Disney franchise and definitely worth a watch for those seeking an uplifting and impactful story. Give this film a chance, and you won't be disappointed.

I get why lots of critics call it cheesy, it is! The 3 stars go for the waves and because it's based on a real person. I would bet it's just loosely based on a real story. The scenes with Frosty's wife acting like an angel were so..... so.... well, cheesy. Overall it was entertaining.

I thought that this was better than Soul Surfer.

This is a nice enough story and film. It appears like a 온라인카지노추천 film. There's nothing especially bad about it, its just a little cliched, or predictable, if anything and maybe a little cheesy. There's not much more to say about it. I wouldn't particularly recommend it, no.

Just perfect! Music, Surfing clips, Action and emotion Are just in Point

Inspirational movie and a great plot.

Regardless of what “real” critics say, an enjoyable movie!

Surfwax on / Surfwax off

Love this Movie! Having grown up in Santa Cruz, every time I watch it, is like going home Great message of perseverance in the face of the almost impossible

Highly rewatchable. Best surfing movie of all time.

I watched this on mute in the background , and it still managed to drive an emotional response.. the characters where relatable and desire was motivational. I usually hate these true story motivation movies as they follow a predictable script . But in this case this was extremely well done.

Personally I loved this movie. Watched it multiple times and though there were clearly holes in the story, it still flowed.

Enjoyable movie that compels you and interests you, but feels like it drags on a lot.

After watching Chasing Mavericks, I felt a wave of motivation to do something I was passionate about. It is an incredibly inspirational story, though many say it is unauthentic. I believe it shows us to never give up and to fight for our dreams. That is an important life skill and lesson everyone should learn. The movie is based on the true story of Jay Moriarty, a 16-year old boy, and how he trained extensively to be able to surf the massive Maverick waves. There also appears to be a christian underlying, but it is not really dug into. When Moriarty was eight he almost drowned, but was saved by his neighbor, Frosty Hessen. Since the incident, Moriarty has always idolized the surfer that saved his life. One day, he follows Hessen and discovers the enormous 20-foot waves called "Mavericks" which were thought to be a myth. Moriarty pleads with Hessen until he agrees to prepare him for these gigantic waves. Hessen acts as a fatherly figure, mostly because his wife pushed him to be better, and puts Jay Moriarty through a rigorous physical and character-building training. Throughout the movie there are many obstacles: Jay's mother is an alcoholic, his father abandoned him, and Hessen's wife died of a stroke. These domestic dramas, however, do not drive the movie forward. Moriarty's biggest obstacle is the waves themselves and this movie's biggest asset is the incredible surfing footage they have captured from it. In the end, though the story is not the most intriguing, it inspires and pushes the audience to reach for their dreams. I would recommend this movie to anyone who needs to believe they can accomplish anything.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, and the critics reviews are harsh.

This was an awesome movie! The acting was great, little cheesy at times but the storyline was so genuine.

Inspiration film hat captures the California beach lifestyle. I enjoyed this movie, it made me feel like I was back living on Thebes California coast.
