    This is one of the best movies I have ever seen. The actors was perfect for the role they played and the move shocked my heart for a weird reason, but the movie was so beautiful.

    All time favorite. The acting, the true story telling, all very well done with respect to the family. Top 3 surf movies of all time.

    #MovieReview #Disneyplus #TrueStory #LiveLikeJay #ChasingMavericks Chasing Mavericks, originally a Fox movie now available on Disney+, is a must-watch film that deserves your attention. Based on a true story, this movie showcases Gerard Butler in an early role, portraying a teacher figure in a compelling manner. The narrative follows a fatherless child who perseveres against all odds to achieve his dreams, making for a heartwarming and inspiring story. I appreciate Disney's efforts in bringing such hidden gems to light, allowing audiences to enjoy and appreciate these lesser-known films. The authenticity of the water scenes, using real water instead of relying heavily on CGI, adds a level of realism to the film that enhances the viewing experience. Chasing Mavericks is a captivating movie that offers a mix of drama, inspiration, and genuine emotion. It's a great addition to the Disney franchise and definitely worth a watch for those seeking an uplifting and impactful story. Give this film a chance, and you won't be disappointed.

    I get why lots of critics call it cheesy, it is! The 3 stars go for the waves and because it's based on a real person. I would bet it's just loosely based on a real story. The scenes with Frosty's wife acting like an angel were so..... so.... well, cheesy. Overall it was entertaining.

    I thought that this was better than Soul Surfer.

    This is a nice enough story and film. It appears like a TV film. There's nothing especially bad about it, its just a little cliched, or predictable, if anything and maybe a little cheesy. There's not much more to say about it. I wouldn't particularly recommend it, no.
