Product Description: Lionsgate Step Into Liquid (Blu-ray) From the makers of "The Endless Summer", "Step Into Liquid" takes us from the terrifying monstrous waves of Oahu's NorthShore to the Texas waters of the Gulf of Mexico to the shores of Ireland and Rapa Nui. Told throughthe voices of legends, pros, and everyday surfersalike, it is not just a film for surfers, but foranyone with an appreciation for sport and an inkling of what it means to be "stoked.".
Amazon.com: Thanks to Dana Brown's delightful Step Into Liquid, the surfing scene in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, should get a healthy boost. That's because Brown, in the tradition of his father, filmmaker Bruce Brown (The Endless Summer), has captured dazzling images of surfers riding curls in some of the world's most exotic--and sometimes unlikely--places. Besides the action on Lake Michigan, Brown leads us to Costa Rica, where the sport's senior elite (including Summer star Robert August) prove they still have the moves, and Oahu's North Shore, where the legendary Pipeline inspires this quote: "It's so scary, maybe you die a little." Most entertaining is a segment in County Donegal, where the American Malloy brothers startle the locals and meet their Irish counterparts on the grayest ocean imaginable. Great personal stories here, including the tale of Northern California's Dale Webster, who has never missed a day on the waves in 30 years. --Tom Keogh
More for the family than the surfer.. I guess it depends on what you are looking for. If it's a beautiful surf movie with incredible action and sick big wave surfing, this is not it. If it's a movie to watch with the kiddies, then yeah. Too much time spent on heart warming tales than sick late drops into blue wonderful.
A superb Bluray example Are you a surfer? No? Ok well just admire the beauty then of high definition water and a rather compelling documentary that will have you wow'ed in no time at all.
Step into Liquid I purchased a BD player a year ago and love it. So far my favorite BD DVD was the Planet Earth series but it now changed to Step into Liquid. I dont know how they captured these amazing scenes and it looks fantastic. I have a whole new appreciation for Surfing. I would definetly recommened purchasing this movie. You will be showing off your BD Player and TV to all your guests.
You don't have to like surfing Since the trailer, I was always intrigued with this film. I never saw it in theater, but when it came out on DVD, I finally decided to watch it. WOW. Not only the filming is beautiful if not spectacular, but the story telling is excellent. It is to me one of the best docufilm ever made, because it holds for start to end, and there are no egos portrayed here, just passionate people in love with nature. The Blu-Ray version adds to the picture quality dimension of it, even though some of the interviews are a bit out of focus (the betrayal of the the high definition world), but it isn't enough to spoil such a brilliant motion picture. I can watch this over and over again, and as a video editor, I'm always learning something new every time about it's production, but also never get tired of the beautiful images and the great soundtrack throughout the film (Heavy Metal songs free ;-)
So I highly recommend this feature, it is always fascinating to watch!
Get "Stoked" by this great surfing video Awesome video for surfing lovers and anyone interested in surfing. I was inspired to buy this after watching endless summer 2 on cable tv and was not disappointed in the least bit.
