The 4 stars are mainly for the nice shots in the movie, the great scenery and the music.
There is however no real substance, in fact I'd argue the movie would have been better without any dialogue as it's really shallow and distracts from the strong points.
This is definitely not Into the Wild mixed with a surf movie as another review suggested as the main character doesn't venture off the beaten path, nor has a likable personality or otherwise higher ulterior motive to his travels. He is rude and disrespectful to locals, which could be understandable but the manner in which it is done shows he has no real interest in them or shame in being rude. Rather then coming across as a weary, experienced traveler bored with the same question he comes across as a spoiled and blase surfer.
