The Endless Summer Reviews

Cole Smithey
[VIDEO ESSAY] The film is an invaluable time capsule of surfing and cultural significance. If it still occurs as the ultimate example of a vacation-as-vocation movie, then so much the better.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Shunning the tons of equipment ordinarily taken along on location, Brown used only what he could carry. The beautiful photography he brought home almost makes you wonder if Hollywood hasn't been trying too hard.
NPR
Ian Buckwalter
Part surfing film, part travelogue, occasionally even anthropological study and wildlife film, ultimately it visually taps into the wanderlust that sends us to far-flung beaches in search of an escape from life that we can't find at home.

Premier surfing documentary by Bruce Brown.
Common Sense Media
Andrea Beach
Dated but fascinating surfing documentary still charms.

Christopher Null
As surfers Mike Hynson and Robert August teach natives to surf and get chased by dolphins and zebras, you can't help but laugh and feel good while watching their lighthearted antics.

A lot more intriguing than any "surfing documentary" oughtta be.

The Endless Summer is a film you will enjoy, even if you have no interest in surfing.
