surf's up

Watched it over the weekend, unfortunately not in the cinema. Surf's Up is ingenious and fresh, the mockumentary format of the film is a delightful surprise. Shia LaBeouf (ya, he's everywhre) hits the mark perfectly as Cody Maverick. The movie is fun and entertaining. The main reason i admire the film is becouse it's very surf theme oriented, I always like the sport. I listen to the OST as well, I always go for the soundtrack if i really like the film. Actually, if it's wasn't louis, i wouldn't be so into OST. It would be better if you listen to soundtrack before you watch the movie, i usually do that, when l manage to get the OST before the film.
The Surf's Up OST is a fun summer sampler, it's uplifting. I've been having so much enjoyment listening to the OST.
Before this, i liked the work from Gustavo Santaolalla very much, he's a film composer. His musical style frequently combines elements of rock, soul, African rhythms and Latin American folk. He plays variety of stringed instruments including the guitar, the guitarron, the charango, and the ronroco. I like his work for the film, Brokeback Mountain and The Motorcycle Diaries. Thanks for Charmaine for recommending The Motorcycle Diaries OST.
