Her arm bitten off by a shark, Hawaiian surfer chick Bethany Hamilton learns to ride those waves again…
An amazing true story for sure, but this earnest dramatisation is so wholesome, it feels like being stuck in a never-ending Activia advert.
Everyone is blonde, beautiful and buff – even the church-group leader that escorts Bethany (Bridge To Terabithia’s AnnaSophia Robb) to Thailand to help the post-tsunami locals learn to surf.

But ultimately? More Blue Crush than Big Wednesday.
