Ride

Not a bad ride

Helen Hunt looks vastly different in this movie. It’s only relevant if you are a fan of Hunt’s before this movie.

I found the movie very relatable as Helen hunt plays an overbearing single mother whose college aged son, drops out to surf in California and she follows him from New York in order to connect by learning how to surf herself.

It’s a drama driven by Helen Hunt in center stage and a coming of age story that not only focus on a boy trying to figure out his life but a mother trying to let go of the boy becoming a man, so in a lot of ways it’s her coming of age story as well.

Not the best movie about surfing I’ve ever seen but I think I’ve only see two (Point Break and Johnny Tsunami), but it’s one of those movies that really grounded on real life emotions and dealing with real life things.

It was a good Helen Hunt movie.
