Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Twenty-eight years after directing the hit documentary The Endless Summer, Bruce Brown went on a similar quest with two surfers to find the perfect wave. With a bigger budget and more sophistication in the production, this sequel is even more spectacular. What is lost in innocence--which The Endless Summer was rich in--is made up for in stunning looks at pristine beaches on exotic and even unlikely (for example, Alaska) shores. --Tom Keogh

3.0 out of 5 stars Awesome film, somewhat disappointing DVD release, October 20, 2003
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I'm glad to have this film on DVD after all this time! This movie takes you all around the world, from the beauty of the Fiji Islands to the crackpot idea of surfing the bear infested Alaskan coastline and beyond. I've been sharing this film with friends for years, and have been writing New Line Home Video for the past 6 years *begging* them to release this title on disc. Monterey Home Video seemed to have acquired the rights, and although I do give them kudos for coming up to plate with my request, I am disappointed that the film is only presented in full-screen mode with a stereo soundtrack. More importantly, the DVD transfer is rather poor for a modern-day DVD release. It pains me to not give this review five stars, it's such an incredible film, but this DVD release was a bit of a disappointment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Only a surfer knows..., April 28, 2000
By Vit (California) - See all my reviews
For those who wish to see another surf video based in the 60's, you should look elsewhere. Have no illusions, this is a modern-day "Endless Summer". Bruce Brown did a tremendous job putting together a surfing adventure which holds your interest from one end of the globe to the other. Balancing a number of today's different surf styles, we're offered everything from short boards to long boards to power surfing. The film is enriched with a wide variety of music, coupled with incredibly clear and well positioned camera shots. Add some of the best surfers in the world and you've got a 5 star surf film.

After viewing many of the other hundreds of surf video's out there, I still find myself coming back to this one. I especially enjoy the light humor through out the film. Still yet, I'm continually impressed with the top quality camera work and editing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as the first, but still good., April 18, 2002
My how things change from the 1960s to the 1990s! The boards are smaller, the fashions more elaborate, the girls-well they are still sexy- and seem to have reduced their clothing somewhat-and the waves have gotten bigger, meaner and hollower. Something else has also changed in surfing-money. There is plenty of it here-surf boats, surf camps, professional surfers (what are they?, -I hear the voices of the 1960s echo- Getting paid to surf?, surely not!), and charter planes. Well, the film was well financed, but the average surfers these days have more of these options as well.

In Endless Summer 2, places visited in the original 1966 film include only a few: eg South Africa-Cape St Francis, and West Africa-except that its Elands Bay this time and Namibia, not the Ivory Coast area and Senegal(?), as in the 1966 film. Most of the places are, however, new ones, as the best surf spots in the world have mostly been discovered since the original film was made.

In this film we get to see good quality surf in: Fiji (Tavarua and Restaurants), Indonesia (Grajagan of course), Hawaii, Elands Bay and J-Bay (very good 6 foot surf), and Cape St Francis (all South Africa), (note: if you are ever in South Africa don't miss Kitchen Windows (in my experience its under-rated) and 'Jungenfentein' (or something like that)), several in Central America (I'm not familiar with these spots, but they are near Panama I think). They also go to France and Australia, but the surf doesn't oblige when they did the filming in these two places.

It is particularly a pity for the Australian segment, where they didn't get much surf, as they went to some of the best surf spots in Australia on the north coast of NSW (eg Lennox, Angourie, Cabarita, Broken Head), and southern Queensland (eg Snapper, Burleigh, Kirra). (The last 3 times I have been to these areas I have got 6 foot surf each time-must have been lucky).

Overall a fun and interesting expose of world surf culture in the 1990s, with some of the better-known world surf spots, and a bit of humour and some very good quality surf thrown in, especially at Grajagan (G-land), Tavarua, and my favourite-J-Bay.
