pkpera The weakest part of this is story. Spoiler: there is no surf party in it. Instead, we have some road movie like visit to LA . What means that real spoiler is movie's title.There was lot of cliché in. Pretty much forgettable. But there is one thing what I will remember for sure: our heroes were very mad and demanding because of their stolen surf board, while they regularly steal beer from small shops - 2 cases during their trip shown. To say something good: there were some cool shots of surfing in first part. There was Joan Jett in smaller role. But her character was really undeveloped. There was some moral blah at the end, but not what I hoped - about "do not steal" .

johntbakken The title is very misleading and I do not see why they put National Lampoon in front of this movie and why did they call it surf party? When I started to watch this movie I did not have very high expectations about the content and thought this would be like another hyperactive T&A movie with a surf theme.To my surprise, I found out this was not true. Instead this is a coming of age movie that tells a story about some friends on a journey to find a stolen surf board and why the surf board got stolen. Main characters are likable and the acting feels normal. The movie flows along in a nice pace and I never got bored or looked at the clock while watching this movie.This movie reminds me of teen movies from the late 70's like The Van (1977) and Malibu Beach (1978). The movie also has some quirky characters appearing like Joan Jett and Lee Ving. The only thing missing here is Steve Oliver as Dugan, getting into a fight and yelling, "Nobody calls Dugan a turd!" As a surf comedy and a National Lampoon movie, there is no nudity, but the girls show some skin in bikini's. I think the movie tries to rely on storytelling and characters rather than showing T&A to keep viewers interested though the movie.A modern surf comedy that feels like a late 70's surf comedy? A pleasant surprise.

s_paw1 Such a stupid plot. A guy loses his surfing board, gathers his friend and goes out to look for it, finds the board, cannot find the one who stole it, waits for him, and when he comes back, his dad gives them option of either calling the cops or get 3 shots at the guy. The drunk one mistakenly gets the turn and fails to hit him in 2 shots, takes one more gets a good shot and thats it they return home with the surf board. On their way back the surfboard gets crushed by a car and they end up with nothing. back. Seriously, its nothing more than that. I beg all of you not to spend your precious hour on this.The actors were quite bad and there was nothing I enjoyed in the movie. I don't believe how i watched the complete movie. I wonder why this movies not in the bottom list of IMDb.

jtodmfe This movie was not funny at all, in fact it was pretty patethic, you got this teen surfing, happy with his new surfboard, looses it during a wave, he is still paying it off, and someone else steals it from him, he then tells all his friends about the incident and they start searching for the guy who stole it, they manage to track him down, go to his house, he was not there, instead they explained everything to his dad.His dad gives them back the surfing board and they leave....BUT NO THEY STAYED WAITING. behind some bushy plants drinking beer so that when his son arrives they can beat him up...WOW, so they confront him again this time with his son, and his dad tells them you can either call the cops about this stupid incident he didn't say stupid but that what it is, or you have the permission to strike at my son 3 times. WOW. then something really dumb happens which is a waste of time explaining, to make this long patethic story short they got the board, and they are happy and guess what? the board falls out from the back of the cars open bonnet, they get out of the car to pick it up, and guess what? another car comes their direction and breaks it..SO ORIGINAL, and then you just see the teens and the guy who lost and got his board broken, describing how they got on in their later stages in life. example having kids and stuff. BOOOOOOOOORING
