Summary: Sand DVD
Review: Revenge drama filmed in what appears to be California's Big Sur. Beautiful photography is completely destroyed by the DVD's dreadful pan and scan job (the film's format is obviously 2:35 to 1 Panavision), the kind of thing I thought had gone out the window along with the VHS format. As for the film, the effectiveness of the drama (a study of the violence-prone macho attitudes in our society?) is diminished by the characters' lack of depth, a deadly slow first 45 minutes and a disappointing, not quite believable ending. A good enough time killer, but that's about it.

Summary: Wow--Incredibly Awful
Review: This movie basically displays friendship and surfer power overcoming evil. Tyler befriends some young beach types, and falls in love with the sister of one of them, who is attacked, and the attack is atoned for heavily. Rarely do you see a film where the bad guys are the only ones to die!
It's only real downfall is the lack of reasons why Tyler's family are in town, and a lack of information about his previous relationahip with them. Other than that, it's all around good.

Summary: not bad
Review: this movie wasnt that bad. it was good. Michael Vartan did a great job in the lead and Denis Leary as he always is was dynamite. along with Kari Wurher(who was good) makes up for a some what of a powerful picture that had flaws, non the less the premise is great and some scenes are hard to swallow. strickly for fans of Vartan or Leary

Summary: Where's the rest of the plot?
Review: Tyler hates his family - Tyler leaves family to start new life - Tyler settles down - Tyler's family track him down - Some of them are killed for attacking Tyler's girlfriend - Family (remaining) go back home. This film has some major holes, I'm led to believe these are where the interesting parts were edited out. I don't understand why such a strong cast was drawn to this. It's a un-watchable film. Oh yeah, Kari Wuhrer keeps her clothes on. (I know thats what you're thinking!)

Summary: So, so bad
Review: What a waste of time! Michael Vartan must have been broke when he took this part because it was just such a bad story. And kind of annoying how he kept asking his father and brothers to leave his house and they kept saying "no, we can't do that right now"- ugh! Just kick them out! Call the cops! Then Emilio Estevez, in the movie for about 2 minutes, no idea why. Denis Leary is the only one giving this dead movie mouth to mouth to breathe some kind of life into it, something! Overall awful.
