    • Trivia
      Adam Horner was apparently hard to work with on set. It was told that at times he refused to put on an American accent because he found it difficult, refusal to learn lines and instead wanted to have cue cards to read off, and was often late or didn't show up at all to set.
    • Goofs
      During the surf competition, Jake is introduced as "Jake Reynolds, grandson of surfing legend Lou Reynolds" but earlier in the film it was established that Lou was the maternal grandfather. Since Jake's mother was married to Jake's father, Jake would not share Lou's last name.

    Fun and interesting movie!

    I really enjoyed the movie--and the music! I expected to see Jason Castro performing, but he didn't! However, some of his songs played in the background. Still, another song "Everyday" featured in the movie really caught my attention. Like the movie, the song is very uplifting--and just made me feel good! So much so, that I searched it, found it was written and sung by Tyrus Morgan, went to his website and ordered the album Straight Line. Almost every song on this album has the same uplifting melodies--now I can listen to "Everyday" every day!

    Eric Roberts was fantastic!

    So--I recommend the movie, as well as the music!
