Take Every Wave (G) ****
Surf’s Up!
Summer’s over. People looking for a diversion from work or
school or just a break from day to day living get a chance to vicariously
let go. Thrill to the exploits of born adventurer Laird Hamilton in
the appropriately titled Take the Last Wave. Set sail down to the
International Village Cinemas metals in this Mongrel Media in all its
glory.
A documentary has a habit of often being boring or exciting.
Given the subject matter it’s not hard to see why Take The Last Wave
follows into the latter category. Candid comments and open interviews
with the man himself and an assortment of friends flush out the tale
how a California lad would a code tally stumble into a career at would
take the outdoor sports world on one hell of a ride.
Early on we see how a kid’s brashness and daredevil attitude would
propel him into an unrivalled career on the wave riding circuit. Being
white in Hawaii was not easy for a white boy. With a desire to learn, the
stomach to turn our cheek when being bullied and a supportive mom
and step dad our born boy adventurer would somehow harness all that
pent-up frustration, in the process of caring dad,
Awesome nature, sky scraping waves and all those good Holly-
wood looks helps make Take Every Wave the ultimate joy ride. ●
