Surf's Up [UMD for PSP] starring: Shia LaBeouf, Zooey Deschanel, Jon Heder, Jeff Bridges, James Woods directed by: Ash Brannon, Chris Buck
Product Description: Come join Cody (Shia LaBeouf) a Rockhopper penguin as he journeys from his home in Shiverpool Antarctica to take part in the Big Z Memorial Surf-Off on the beach of Pen Gu Island. During his adventure he meets some new friends including surf nut Chicken Joe (Jon Heder) and the spirited lifeguard Lani (Zooey Deschanel). Cody believes that winning is everything until he meets The Geek (Jeff Bridges) and old washed-up pro-surfer who may just show Cody that a true winner isn't always the one who comes in first.System Requirements:Run Time: 85 Mins.Format: UMD Genre: ANIMATION/ADULT SWIM Rating: PG UPC: 043396194106 Manufacturer No: 19410 Amazon.com: Surf's Up is a computer-animated sports mockumentary about penguin surfing contests, which makes it stand out from the crowd of penguin movies. The story unfolds as it would on ESPN, with interviews (with penguins) overlapping footage of (penguin) surfing action, gradually unveiling the tale of Cody Maverick (voiced by Shia LaBeouf, Holes), a young penguin from Antarctica with dreams of winning a surfing competition--a competition named after his idol, the missing Big Z (Jeff Bridges, The Big Lebowski). But when he joins the competition, Cody finds his zeal for winning may not be enough to defeat the cruel reigning champ, Tank Evans (Diedrich Bader, Grim & Evil). The story of Surf's Up is typical stuff: Youngster learns to value friendship over material success. But the documentary style gives the movie a different rhythm from the usual feature-length cartoon; it stutters and skips around, dithers on side topics, and backtracks to catch up with supporting characters. Some viewers may be annoyed, but others--perhaps the more media-savvy--will find it a refreshing change of pace. (Kids who don't watch much sports, however, may just find it confusing.) Surf's Up also features the voices of James Woods (Hercules), Zooey Deschanel (Elf), and Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite). --Bret Fetzer More Surf's Up on Amazon.com
