Surf's Up

4 stars

01 Aug 2020

On Wednesday 29th of July 2020 I watched my second film called Surf's Up which I think I have seen before but i did not write a review for it but I am writing one now so lets begin. I am writing a four star review and the film is made by Sony Pictures animation. The film is about a young Penguin and his name is Cody Maverick who has a dream he would like to be a surfer and compete in the annual penguin World Surfing Championship that is where he meets the famous Surfer who they all thought got killed by the wave his name was Zeke Big Z Topanga Geek he also finds out that Big Z has a niece and her name is Lani Aliikai and she is a lifeguard. Does Lani and Cody fall in love or not and does Big Z get back to surfing again or has he just giving up on it all. My favourite character would be Cody because even though the other surfers and his family told him that he could never win the championship or ever surf he never gave up he just kept trying until he got trained by Big Z then he just did surfing for fun along with his new friend Big Z. Overall this film gets a four star rating which means I liked it but not loved it thank you for reading my review.
