Genres: documentary, drama, true life story, sport.ON LOCATION WITH BETHANY - STAR IN YOUR OWN SURF ACTION FILM WITH BETHANY! The credits run for approximately 2 minutes. There are extra scenes of BethanyвЂ™s real life playing all across the credits, so you will want to stay throughout the very short ending. The Recommended Peetime comes at 57 minutes, but all are just fine. Therefore I focused my 3 Peetimes on the many voice-overs and interviews you can find elsewhere online. вЂњWhen that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.вЂќ -Julius Caesar, Act 3, Scene 2.ДЄbout the Peetimes: Since this is a surfing documentary and NOT a shark attack movie вЂ“ at all вЂ“ IвЂ™ll assume peeps who know of Bethany Hamilton are coming to see the fine surfing action & cinematography. And donвЂ™t ever let the turkeys, or the sharks, get you down. IвЂ™m going to stop here because I really donвЂ™t want to be flippant over HamiltonвЂ™s real heroic journey. (Tales/TailsвЂ¦OMG what is with me and puns today? I am so disrespectful to this tasteful docu-drama, but I donвЂ™t mean it, really.) If youвЂ™re looking for voyeuristic escapist shark-esque tales, stick to 47 Meters Down 1 & 2, The Reef, Deep Blue Sea, The Shallows, The Meg, Jurassic World 1 & 2 (the Mosasaurus), Jaws (an A+ film, if there ever was one), Crawl, or even those campy Sharknado films, for some man-eating survival tales. (Docs have a short half-life until the awards seasons, coming next in 2020.) But What About The Sharks? Go now, while Unstoppable is still in the theaters. And thatвЂ™s why you should see this docu-film. DonвЂ™t let anyone or anything shut down your dreams. If youвЂ™re a girl, or someone with a disability, or just terrified of shark attacks, thereвЂ™s an inspiring takeaway here. It вЂњbreaksвЂќ down to this (pardon the pun): if you want to surf, or your child does, watch this.

I know she has great things ahead, and her disability means she has to pioneer new techniques about balance, steadfastness, and belief in oneвЂ™s self. SheвЂ™s a sweet girl and works Olympic-level hard at her sport.

ThereвЂ™s nothing here you canвЂ™t find poking around the internet about Bethany Hamilton. So IвЂ™ll grade this purely on the level of a surfing documentary.В And I have to say, it was about average, but on the high end. (Sorry - I am being a total douchebag, but I wanted action sequences). There are no sharks, even though this is released during Shark Week and arrives only a few weeks before the expected crazy chomp-chomp goodness of 47 Meters Down. IвЂ™m not going to downgrade it as a disappointing outing when I expected, well, you know -> SHARKS. The Terminator of water, disabled or not. Bethany even experiences the normal happy life events a lovely young girl can expect (marriage, a baby), and after the attack and the childbearing, she had to work harder than anyone else out there on the waves - to not just compete among the worldвЂ™s best caliber surfers alongside women like Courtney Conlogue and Nikki Van Dijk - but to show well and take home titles.
