Surf's Up is based on the groundbreaking revelation that surfing was actually invented by penguins. In the film, a documentary crew will take audiences behind the scenes and onto the waves during the most competitive, heartbreaking and dangerous display of surfing known to man, the Penguin World Surfing Championship.
This was a really good family film. The surfing animation was great and the voices for the characters (especially Napolean Dynamite as the chicken) were really good. The story had a lesson for kids of things NOT being all about winning that should make most parents glad that they took their kids. I wouldn't say that it is a "Shrek" type of animated movie, but it was a worthwhile trip to the theater.
I'd recommend that everyone check out this movie, especially those of you with the kiddies.
