    Keep Getting Back Up

    A motivational and encouraging watch! It was not quite what I was expecting it to be but it was an amazing documentary that left me feeling inspired! The shots they show you of the ocean are breathtaking, as is Bethany's incredible resilience! We highly recommend checking out this movie, especially if you've been a fan of Bethany's or if you have a teen girl. You can check out our full review, what to know before you see it, and discussion questions for after the movie on our blog DownTheHobbitHoleBlog dot com. It's the best documentary we've seen in a very long time!

    A very inspirational story, but...

    I love true stories but I don't generally love documentaries. I did love Soul Surfer and expected it to be more of the same, but there isn't a lot of soul in a documentary. A great girl and I'm thrilled that she's inspired so many, but I'd rather rewatch Soul Surfer anytime. Of course the Hawaii and other location visuals are great of course.

    Inspirational film

    I don't know if I've been living under a rock but being from the UK and not a particular surf fan I'd genuinely not heard of Bethany before this however the film both left me feeling inspired by her personal story but also made me want to surf myself at some point! Shot wonderfully throughout it really left me blown away at times!

    Truly significant film that will leave you inspired

    I saw the movie 7/12/19 at Regal Oceanside. Bethany Hamilton has always been one of the biggest role models in my life, an inspiration, and a motivator to say the least. This film has really made me reflect on how much of an impact she's had on me as I walk into my adulthood. It was full of breath taking scenes and so well put together, it makes her story so much more personal. Aaron Lieber and the rest of the crew have created us a view into her journey as she continues to overcome challenges and break through walls(waves) in the surfing world. It's an amazing film to witness. I pray it clears your mind and gives you peace like it did for me. God bless!!!
