Rating: Summary: One of the greatest movies ever made! DVD request! Review: This movie needs to be on DVD! It is corny, cliché, campy, a testament to surfing culture in the mid 1980's, and I love it! Anyone who surfs will surely love this movie. Did I mention that this move is not yet available in DVD format? How is this possible? It has some of the greatest surfing footage every filmed for a movie and needs to be seen in a crisp clear widescreen format! Some of the best surfers who ever lived get to act in this movie. A very much needed DVD for any serious movie collector! Especially if they surf! Note - I recreated the entire "Rick gets his bag stolen by the Hui" scene when I was at Sunset last summer on my friends DV Cam!
Rating: Summary: a Haole's review of the North Shore, brah! Don't be a barney Review: Turtle: Stay loose, Howlie. Rick: What's a Howlie? Turtle: A tourist, a mainlander, like you. Rick: I'm not a tourist. Turtle: Whatever, Barney. Rick: What's a Barney? Turtle: It's like Barno... Barnyard... a Howlie to the max, a kook in and out of the water. Yeah? and so the world is a better place because of the 1987 movie "North Shore". The acting isn't that great, but the surfing is great. it is such a great b-surf movie from the 80's. the one liners are great! my friends and i have watched it since we were little, over and over. it is a great movie! buy it right now on amazon.com...and watch it over and over and laugh and enjoy the waves! Cool waves and shaka-to-ya-frada-cause-you're-nothing-but-a-bradda. "could i use burkhardt's board...in the contest" - rick kane "go ahead. go shread" - chandler "you one bad shredder, yeah? Yeah, he shred so hard he broke his stick"
Rating: Summary: John Philbin is a Genius Review: All the acting is top-notch in this classic but John Philbin (as Turtle) is the real star, with his understated comic timing and perfect surfer lingo. I agree with the Amazon reviewer who prescribes this as "required therapy"-- I watch it at least five times a year, myself! You can't beat the scene when Rick shows Chandler the board that Turtle shaped himself. Puts a smile on my face every time! And what about that perfect, freeze-frame ending?
Rating: Summary: who needs acting when you're on the North Shore? Review: I love this movie. So, the acting needs some work, but most of the co-stars are surfers, not actors, and world champ Occy is just as funny looking back then as he is now! It features all the big boys of the 80's, and great surf footage. It also has some great lessons for all those beginners who try to get in waves bigger than they can handle.
Rating: Summary: cause when the surf's bad, nobody works Review: For a movie that was panned by the critics, people sure do quote a lot of lines from the movie. Sure the acting isn't the best, the plot is a bit sketchy, but there is something about this movie that just sticks with you. Especially Turtle. I've seen this movie at least 50 times and never get tired of seeing it. I only wish it would come out on DVD.
Rating: Summary: Da Best Review: I myself is a former resident of the island Hawaii. I love this movie, it just brings back memories. I wish it was on dvd!!!!
Rating: Summary: north shore Review: great video lots of great action. WISH IT WAS IN DVD FORM.
Rating: Summary: I don't ride waves goin' straight like some people I know Review: This was an great 80's flick. It has it all, love, scenery, action, you name it. Not to mention some of the best one liners. This movie has even inspired me to learn how to surf. If you find it, buy it. You won't regret it.
