RTThe Hollywood ReporterNov 11, 2003

Eventually suffers from its accumulation of admittedly spectacular but repetitive images and would probably benefit from both extensive trimming and projection on a large-format screen.

Peter Hartlaub

RTSan Francisco ChronicleNov 7, 2003

A superb documentary that delves into the science, emotions and danger surrounding the handful of men and women who risk their lives searching for the ultimate thrill.

Megan Lehmann

RTNew York PostNov 7, 2003

A dog's dinner of profiles, repetitive narration, safety tips and banal 'insights' into the joys and dangers of cresting waves that sometimes reach 70 feet.
