Summary: Cover misleading - needs better cover
Review: BIG WEDNESDAY is, as many have stated, so much more than just a surfie movie. It explores the friendship of three friends over a 10 year period who just happen to all have a surfing passion. A film overlooked by many, yet has a great story to tell with excellent performances by Katt, Busey and Vicent. The surfing aspect is a small part of the overall storyline.

I think the marketing people should have released this DVD title with a different cover as it is misleading and cheapens the movie to a great degree. It is so much more deserving than that.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Big Wednesday
Review: Big Wednesday- a classic. Gary Busey is incredible as Leroy the Masochist. If you've never seen this film, I highly recommend picking it up. This movie is definitely one of my personal favorites.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Big Wednesday...where did those days go ?
Review: Everytime I watch this movie I think of Double Naught Spy Car and their song "Jan-Michael Vincent Rehab.com " . Not the best surf movie but still fun to watch and make you feel REALLY old .

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: More than just a surf flick
Review: I first saw Big Wednesday in 1980 while growing up in Corona del Mar. My friends and I lived our young lives by this movie without ever realizing the true story told in Big Wednesday is about the changing face of friendship as we grow older. It's a story about friends being there for each other when it matters.

My view of this movie as I push 40 is that it is an insightful classic about what happens to friendship as we age. It shouldn't be pidgeon holed as a surf flick.

Summary: NOBODY SURFS FOREVER...
Review: I grew up in the western part of Denmark, with the North Sea as my playground. In the late 80s I spent almost all my time (including the time where I was supposed to be at school...) windsurfing with a few good friends. We started out in the morning, following the weatherforecast while we packed our gear and discussed where the best spot would be, wind- and wavewise. I think of the days as going on an ekspedition with my best friends, doing what we were best at - and experienced that feeling (what only surfers knows) is the best feeling in the world! In the evening when we came back, we lit up the BBQ, got drunk, party all night - and the next day (if there was no wind) we watched 'Big Wednesday'. I see that movie every once in a while, trying to recall the atmosphere from those days...it was like time stood still... My best surffriend then (LL) allways said to me that '-nobody surfs forever...!' - and to my great surprise he was right... If you are an old surfer - watch this movie for to realize, that those days where the time of your life!

Summary: Great Movie
Review: I have seen many surfing videos but this has been the best so far. Not only is the surfing great but there is a good story going on. Its filled with action, sorrow, and some comedy. Great Movie

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: awsome
Review: I just want to say one thing...Awsome. This is the movie that got me started in surfing. Not that I'm any good, but just sitting out there with your buddies shooting the breeze and catching waves together is what it's all about. I even have a 9' board made and signed by Billy Hamilton himself with the "Bear" logo on the nose. What a terrific story. One for the collection.
