No special effects. No stuntmen. No stereotypes. No other feeling comes close. Surfers and secret spots from around the world are profiled in this documentary.
Strange as it sounds, though, Surf's Up exists at the unlikely intersection between those films and recent arthouse surf-culture documentaries like Riding Giants and Step Into Liquid.
In honor of surfing classics such as Endless Summer and Step Into Liquid , Surf's Up winks at the genre as it focuses on a bunch of penguins before, during and after a prestigious surfing contest.
