Surfer Dude, movie review

So I made it through the movie "Surfer Dude" last night. The local video store had it on the shelf at knee to waist high level (or head high for my daughter who picked it out for me). Normally I wouldn't think about renting a movie with Matthew McConaughey attempting to act like a surfer in it. It's pretty much a stoner movie. The main character is basically a sketch of where Spiccoli from "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" left after graduating. Cast members include Woody Harrelson and Willie Nelson. Lot's of pot smoking and boobs. Not enough surfing.

Best line... when a virtual reality operator, who has thousands of breaks loaded on the computer, asks the main character (a total ludite) if he had a favorite surfing spot, he replies, "yeah... but I ain't tellin' you."
