What's with the bad ratings?

[thorsun42 · 8/10 · 16 August 2011]

This is a really good movie. Granted if you're looking for lots of surfing action you'll be disappointed, which is what I suspect a lot of the people who rated it poorly were expecting.

This has got good camera work, some pretty impressive acting from the young cast, and you can never go wrong with the ever beautiful Nia Peeples. The story has a great message that people should heed about agents that promise fame and fortune. Success should never just be measured by how much money you make. It should also be measured by the type of people you keep around you as you make the money. It's too easy to give in to the almighty dollar sign and turn your back on the people that mean the most to you.

I have great respect for everyone involved in the making of this. It's a great looking film that makes you laugh and actually care for the characters.

Great Compassionate Independent Film, The Outside

Let me First start by saying I do not surf and have never ridden a wave, this film helped me understand myself while teaching me about the great Pacific. Needless to say,Great Film!!! I loved every minute, I actually cried when Ned's mother passes away, Wow! Nia peeples nailed this part that is why she is one of the greatest actors alive :) I can not believe this film was not in the theatres,I am so happy for everyone involved in making this picture, I heard about The Outside when I was visiting in Hawaii for the film festival, I was one of the few people that was lucky enough to see this on the big screen. Two Big thumbs up!!! If your into compassionate independent films this is the film for you.

Cheers, Donald T.
