Amazon.com essential video:
The definitive surf movie, this 1966 documentary by Bruce Brown is beautifully shot and thrilling to see in its portrait of youthful freedom on the world's shores. Brown followed two surfers around the globe in their quest for the perfect wave, finding it eventually on a remote beach far from home. The narration by "Big Kahuna Brown" cuts through the reverence a bit, being cheeky in tone. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Endless Classic
Endless Summer is the classic surf video. Good clean fun and two surfers living the ultimate travel and surf dream. Welcome relief from the same ol' crazy CG movies of today.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - When fun was the object
This is a most enjoyable time machine trip back into a more innocent era. The theme instrumental, by the Sandals always puts me into a trance state...a dream-like mix of youth, sun, ocean and carefree days. Bruce Brown's humorous narration allows even non-surfers to enjoy watching this.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An enjoyable revisit to a classic.
This DVD is excellent.The quality was better than expected.I saw this movie when it was orginally released in 1966, and it was better than i remembered it to be.it arrived on time and in the condition it was described to be.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fun And Educational, Thanks To Brown
This was an entertaining and educational trip around the world. It follows two American surfers who are seen visiting West Afrcia, South Africa, India, Australia, New Zealand and, of course, Hawaii.

Watching this 40 years later after seeing it in a theater, it was interesting to see how they looked at prices of things. For example, in Africa, they are astounded at having to pay $30 a night to stay in a motel or pay $1 for a gallon of gasoline. I'll bet they would change their tune today! ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome movie
It is not only a fantastic surfing movie; it is a fantastic look at the world in 1968.They couldn't say what they say in this movie today.It would NOT be PC.There is nothing offensive about this movie socially, but the left wing PC'ers of the world would not let these guys describe the world so accurately.

As far as I am concerned, this is the all time best manly movie about surfing around the world.Makes me want to walk out on my job, grab my son and surfboard and travel the world ... Read More
