Bra Boys [DVD]

nice

If you are in anyway aquatic, you need to see this production. I grew up near the beach in Santa Monica, CA. I was immersed in the beach scene from 9 years of age to 16 years. I'll tell you this, it was nothing like the world depicted in the Bra Boys DVD. Since the hard core experiences shown aren't for everybody, I gave the DVD 4 stars. Apart from that, I felt that Sunny Abberton did a great job of sharing the world that he and his brothers grew up in. I've always felt that one of the best things anyone can do is to see the world through someone else's eyes. The Bra Boys production makes this possible. The great thing about seeing it on the screen was that I wasn't in danger of being stabbed, shot, or washed over the shallow reef! Some of the elements expressed in this film include deep family ties, the bond of friendship, larrakin characters, oh... and some unbelievable surfing!

Interesting documentary about the surf "gang" in Australia. Gives some history on how they became who they are. Just keep in mind that you are getting a documentary and NOT a "surf flick".Theres definately some nice footage and a great segment on the place called "ours".Don't expect to watch this and get amped to paddle out. You're more likely to learn how to respect locals when you paddle out someplace new.

Gripping and compelling story of disadvantaged youth that overcame tremendous odds against them. Especially loved the Grandmother and the obvious love and respect shown her. Beautiful and awesome surfing shots. One doesn't have to be a surfer or a surfing buff to enjoy and identify with this story. As a HUGE fan of Russell Crowe, I applaud his involvement with this project as the narrator. Thank you.

Moderately entertaining with nice surf footage. I can imagine that if I were Australian or previously familiar with material I would have found the film more engaging. It felt like the filmmakers assumed the viewer knew the outcome of suspenseful situations to start. Also, for reasons I don't understand, the video image appeared to be low quality on our screen, as if pixelated or fuzzy. As compared with other of my favorite sports docs, like those on ESPN 30x30 or HBO Real Sports, this falls below the grade.

Brutally true story of life in the bad section of town that just happens to also host a really fine surf spot. The fights & gang violence are bloody. The surfing insane. You travel to some awesome surf spots & see some really incredible surfing. Great, tragic story that turns out well with plenty of fines waves through out.

Great movie

Great surfer flick!! 🏄🏻🌊🦈

I got this bought for me because I was a avid watcher of the show Bondi Rescue and always found it interesting about the Surfing world. These lads are talented and have learnt the hard way the bond they have is great too. From interviews the director explains this is his first film, that being said its well put together and well thought throw. Also you don't need to be a fan of surfing to understand what's going on

Good film,well delivered and the real footage shown is excellent. Do get the impression the story being told is a little one sided though.very entertaining though.

this is the first time I have used this service and found it simple ,easy to understand and exactly as offered.

It is a film . You watch it once and then you can pretty much give it away.Not much surf action . Where are the extras I wonder. Poor value.It should be on films , not on surfing DVDs really.
