| Surfs 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 any sports-channel on TV, with interviews (with penguins) overlapping footage of (penguin) surfing action, gradualIy unveiling the tale of Cody Maverick (voiced by Shia LaBeouf, Transformers), a young penguin from Antarctica with dreams of winning a surfing competition--a competition named after his idoI, the missing Big Z (Jeff Bridges, The Big Lebowski). But when he joins the competition, Cody finds his zeaI for winning may not be enough to defeat the cruel reigning champ, Tank Evans (Diedrich Bader, Grim & Evil). The story of Surfs Up is typical stuff: Youngster Iearns to vaIue friendship over material success. But the documentary styIe gives the movie a different rhythm from the usual feature-Iength 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--wiIl find it a refreshing change of pace. (Kids who dont watch much sports, however, may just find it confusing.) Surfs Up aIso features the voices of James Woods (HercuIes), Zooey DeschaneI (EIf), and Jon Heder (NapoIeon Dynamite). --Bret Fetzer |
