SCORE

8,4/10

quality

"The Surfer uses every element of filmmaking to reshape what we’re seeing, without ever leaving the beach. Script, visuals, colour, and sound all work together to slowly pull us into the main character’s mind. A tight, clever, and entertaining experience."

We stick close to the main character

A steady pace that slowly turns up the tension
