Painful, 13 June 2009
3/10
Author: cookdaddy from Australia

I really enjoyed Edtv, so I was interested in seeing McConaughy and Harrelson together again. Unfortunately this was all kinds of bad! This is pretty much a stoner movie, focusing on Steve Addington (McConaughey) who is a world famous surfer who decides to return to his hometown. He is then pursued by a company to sign on to a surfing video game, which he doesn't want any part of. The storyline and acting is horrible in this! I was also interested in seeing Nathan Phillips in this being a fellow Australian.. but he really is an atrocious actor! If you like surfing then this might be for you, but don't expect anything amazing as it was painful to sit through! My Rating: 3.5/10
