Surf’s Up is probably one of my favorite animated movies of the late 2000s. Each character had their own presence in this film, Cody was a great main character and Chicken Joe is arguably one of the best friends you could ever have. The contrast between Big Z and Tank and how surfing was portrayed was great! It’s definitely a movie you gotta see at least once.
“Coulda walked up to anyone. And… he walks right up to me” (he barges through the crowd) “He gives me this awesome one-of-a-kind Big Z necklace” (takes the necklace from a bunch of other ones) “And then he tells me, ‘You know, kid, never give up. Find a way, cuz that’s what winners do’” (he isn’t actually saying anything) I love the writing of this movie so much, this interaction is both funny and personifies Cody
Bruh how am I just realizing that this is what happened. Ever since I watched it when it first released till now, that didn't click. Disappointed in myself
6:40 “I don’t understand why everyone has to be so judgmental,I understand why mom is so judgmental. I think it’s because she cares partially,I think it’s also partially cause everyone else is looking at her like: ‘Hey Cody is just a bum’ ‘Cody this’ Cody that’. Cody’s me bro. let me be me. When is that gonna start?” Story of my life right here,what I love about Cody is that he captures the feelings of being judged by everyone because he’s unique among everyone. This is so relatable I’m 19 man
That’s definitely because of Shia. He’s had a troubled life and going through tough times during the making of this. 10/10 for Shia for capturing this perfectly.
A film portrayed as a made up “documentary” with actual pro surfers getting to voice certain characters and give a little insight into what they see when they surf. Also with the most natural dialogue ever from the actors. 😆 It’s just so well written and really well animated. I never get tired of watching this film^^
Yeah, why doesn't this movie get the kind of attention Frozen got? It does so much more that's new than that film ever did! And unlike Frozen, it doesn't constantly beat you over the head with any of the unique things it does!
@@jeniferclemente1252 You remember the SpongeBob episode MuscleBob BuffPants? In that, SpongeBob wants big muscles but finds Sandy Cheeks's training too stressful and grueling, so instead he fakes it by purchasing a pair of inflatable balloon muscles called Anchor Arms. Then he brags his head off to everyone at Goo Lagoon about how much stronger he is and becomes the most popular guy there, even though if anything he's actually weaker than he was without the fake arms. Frozen is like that. It keeps bashing us over the head with what it does, like "Oooh, look at me, I'm the first Disney movie to say you can't marry someone you just met!" "Oh, look, everybody, I'm the first Disney film that has a strong woman who doesn't need a man!" And so on and so on. Not only is that obnoxious, not only is it talking down to us, but it's not even true. If anything, it's actually less original than most other Disney films. Thank goodness Surf's Up isn't obnoxious like that! It doesn't constantly go "Look, I'm the first animated mockumentary movie!" or "Isn't it great that I'm the first documentary-esque movie with talking animals?" or whatever. Why couldn't Frozen be more like Surf's Up?
I remember watching this when i was 9 when cody said he’s 17 i said “ur that old?” now i’m here and im 17😂 this movie will forever be in my heart . ❤️ Edit: im 19 now 😭
6:40 such a relatable line. like im just tryna live my life mind my own business do wtv i want yet there’s always someone just trying to bring me down criticizing me whenever they get telling me what to do and how to live my life and all that. bro like worry about urself and ur life before bringing all ur shit to me. u do u and let me do me
"I mean you know I'm not the only kid on the island whose dad was... Eaten. 😐" "Still, that must've been traumatic, though." "Not for me, bro. Not for me."
I find it funny that in English he just says "cut it, Glenn. Stop it...", whilst in Portuguese he literally shouts "THROW YO MAMMA, LET'S SEE IF IT'LL BOUNCE BACK AT YOU!". Ah, Brazilians, such lovely people.
I will forever love how... natural Surf's Up is. the dialogue, the characters, the story, the movement, it's literally so awesome. I can see this as a real surfing documentary, with real people
I love how Cody wants to follow his dream of being a pro surfer like Big Z but his brother Glen is constantly lecturing him about responsibilities but yet he's sitting on his mom's couch looking fat and happy. he's the real Loser not Cody

This movie’s great. One can argue this was even better than Sony pictures animation’s first movie, open season, which was mostly good on its own. Too bad this movie in particular is underrated.
I know people see this type of comment a lot, but this scene really made me feel for Cody. I know what it’s like to be in that living situation he was in before going to Pen Gu Island for the competition.
The 2 Directors Of Surf’s Up Are Chris Buck and Ash Brannon. Ash Brannon Was One Of The Co-Directors Of Toy Story 2 Alongside Lee Unkrich and John Lasseter Directed The Movie. Chris Buck Was Also The Director Of Tarzan, Frozen and Frozen II.
God the animation is so good. You don’t see that grounded down to earth sort of movement often in animation because one of the principles is literally exaggeration and scripted dialogue has structured beats the acting has to hit but the Surf’s Up animators dial it just enough to have that documentary style feel. The little subtleties and secondary action is just fantastic!
I really miss the technique we used to see of the "outtakes" and "behind the scenes" in earlier animated movies, like here, Toy Story, and Bug's Life. Would be nice to see that again in some newer animated movies.
Y'all are snoozing on the older penguins. "I worked MY way up... from the sarDINE pile, uh, and then to the mackerel pile, and I ended up (*beat*) in the gefilte fish pile - ALL HARD WORK." "Naht like sum dat I cood menchen." "YES, the farkakte KID with the ting on the WATEH."
I like to imagine that with the whole "Singing and dancing" gag at the start, the penguins from Happy Feet also exist in this world and all the other penguins think they're fucking weird lmao
It truly is. It sends a great message. The story about an underdog who deals with obstacles involving his introverted single mother and pushover brother and then begins to pursue his true passion for surfing 🏄♂️
They dont make movies like this anymore man. They probably wouldve have to make one of the characters gay as a plot point. Modern music wouldve been terrible and ruined the movie
The peak in the 2000s surf, skate, sport, bmx and being cool asf this was the best time of our lives
The 2000s are definitely my favorite era
My are the 90s and 2000s
I was born in 2005 so unfortunately I missed the opportunity to grow up around people who aren't complete dickheads
Imagine if like Skate's Up like skateboarding
I miss it so much

“And then he tells me, ‘You know, kid, never give up. Find a way, cuz that’s what winners do’” (he isn’t actually saying anything)
I love the writing of this movie so much, this interaction is both funny and personifies Cody
To be fair, it doesn't matter if something's a cheap mass-produced bit of plastic - if it comes from the right person, it really can be one-of-a-kind.
cody believed he was worthy from the very beggining
Idk how people write this, but that little scene instantly defines Codys whole character.
Bruh how am I just realizing that this is what happened. Ever since I watched it when it first released till now, that didn't click. Disappointed in myself
I’m not gonna lie, this opening scene is EVERYTHING! What he does to be a pro is hysterical to enjoy. Funnest movie ever.
It's a decent film.
It certainly explains more in the first few minutes than Frozen ever did in its entire 90-something runtime.

I was 17 when I finally watched this movie for the first time in a good while. I was just like Cody.
I literally just turned 17 now
"Im the best on the island."
He says while being the only surfer on the island but I guess He isnt wrong
Well, there is a difference about being the best and being the only one on the island.
😂
Technically the truth
One of the best 2000s movies
Too bad it was never even nominated at the Kids Choice Awards.
I love is movie so relatable 6:41
So happy they made this movie❣️
Me too
Aye Cody’s just a bum Cody’s this Cody’s that Cody IS ME
Right
The voice acting was so too notch, every moment in this movie felt natural
“ Cody’s me bro, let me be me” I felt this in my soul
This movie had the best soundtrack

Shia's voice acting is my favorite part of the movie. The screams while he's crashing is so funny.
Lol Z didn’t walk up to you, you ran up to him. He didn’t really have a choice. And that Glen egg rant with the agreeing guy is so funny
Bro that’s the scripting it’s meant to b funny relax
This is the movie that got me into surfing... Times flies by man.
I love how Cody wants to follow his dream of being a pro surfer like Big Z but his brother Glen is constantly lecturing him about responsibilities but yet he's sitting on his mom's couch looking fat and happy. he's the real Loser not Cody
