Drift Ratings & Reviews
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
Writer and co-director Morgan O'Neill based Drift on true surfer stories from the era; however, the movie mostly comes across as a grab bag of tired tropes.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
I'm a sucker for films with great surfing footage, let alone wacky '70s hairstyles. But this overlong, clich-infested Aussie period drama tested my patience.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
This poor-surfers-make-good drama from Morgan O'Neill and Ben Nott relies more than it should on toned thighs and taut gluteals. Be grateful; there's nothing to see on dry land that's anywhere near as compelling.
We Got This Covered
Simon Brookfield
As has always been the case, well choreographed surf sequences are a delight to behold on the big screen, but also having always been the case, clich and messy drama is not.
RogerEbert.com
Sheila O'Malley
The acting is quite good, natural and fresh, and the surfing footage is magnificent. "Drift," though, is a weird mix, and not always successful.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
The leads are engaging, and Pollard in particular projects an easygoing, friendly machismo. Where the movie routinely disappoints, though, is in pursuit of a perfect storm of conflict story lines ...
San Francisco Chronicle
Walter V. Addiego
Has genial moments, but they're lost in a sea of boilerplate incidents and prefab characters. Surfing sequences are easily as striking as what we see in documentaries about the sport.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
Certainly atmospheric but depressingly predictable, Drift is more stimulating visually than dramatically.
Slant Magazine
Tomas Hachard
The obstacles that the Kelly brothers encounter are as uninspired as the film's treacly lessons about brotherhood and staying true to one's principles.
Variety
Scott Foundas
Manages to get a fair bit right about early 1970s surf culture when it isn't trafficking in the hoariest of David-vs.-Goliath cliches.
Village Voice
Zachary Wigon
Not so much drifting as veering between storylines, Ben Nott and Morgan O'Neill's Drift often feels like a film with narrative ADD.
Film Journal International
Don Groves
The surfing sequences are impressively filmed, but on dry land the unexciting narrative plods along to a predictable conclusion.
