Great Photography - Worth Checking Out

Rating: Null/10 (8 April 2003)

Blue Crush gives the rest of us a small window into the surf world, and an alternative view of life to the techno-urban reality being pumped in movies these days. Kate Bosworth's character is stripped down to a more human level, someone you can actually relate to. The surf sequences are mesmerizing with a dreamlike quality that reaches into the subconscious. I found the surf culture fascinating in its simplicity and freedom. It's also refreshing to see young women doing something interesting and challenging and not just trying to be attractive. I'd see it again.
