So I finally got a chance to watch this last night. I don't see why everyone hated it! It was a good movie, great story, and Gerry was fabulous as always....and I'm not into the surfer movie thing. Haters gotta hate, I guess. TTFN, Auntie D I really liked it too and I'm not saying it to promote Gerry. I honestly hated Bounty Hunter, but Chasing Mavericks was really good.

I agree I really liked Chasing Mavericks. I think it is a good family movie and it tells a true story of dreams, hard work, and determination. Playing for Keeps was not as good....it could have been a lot better but it turned out silly...The Bounty Hunter was ridiculous...to say the least....but I must say Jason Sudeikis made me laugh..he was the best part of the move for me.

Still no sign of CM DVD release in UK. Really annoying after it didn't get a theatrical release here! Just hoping they are holding it back until after OHF in the hope of more sales.

I liked CM but I also like BH. Gamer although I liked it, was hard for me to watch I have it on Blue Ray and I like it just the fast scene to scene blend, hard to follow. I did not like Cherry Orchard or Shooters (I did like the yellow towel), nor some of the very early movies but that might be because if you sneezed you missed him.

Out of desperation I have just ordered the European Spanish DVD of CM as there is STILL no sign of any UK release!! It claims to have the English audio and no subtitles with just the box having Spanish text. Seems crazy it's not being released in UK after the success of OHF!!

Yeah think that is the one I bought although was a few pounds cheaper on eBay. Had signed up with amazon but was still no sign of the uk release so I can live with paying a bit more and a Spanish cover!

It is indeed the normal English version other than the Spanish cover! I'm stoked!!

Loved CM! Gerry did a great job and the photography and surfing scenes were amazing. Just wish we could have seen them on the big screen in UK. Really enjoyed the extras too although was hard to watch the bits showing Gerry's accident. It was incredible that he was so lucid after it and saying stuff like "did you get that on film" etc. guess it was the adrenalin kicking in.

FYI - Just got back from a gaunt to Target and found CM on DVD on sale 12.99. Also found Coriolanus and PSILY for cheap too. ^_^
