A lovely drama romance interlaced for a brief summer time. The story is engagingly simple, the acting good overall and very good for Andrea Bang who played with tremendous charisma and showed awesome chemistry with Robbie Amell who seemed lost by that powerful romantic force and connection.
Definitely deserves the next installment 'Float - surfing under the sun'.

Not like the books original storyline, its supposed to be an enemies to lovers type story but it looks like they fell in love at first sight. Im nitpicky with movies though.
Good even if the plot isnt the same.
The actors also look a little too old, they're 18 canonically.
I do love love stories, im a huge romance fan but this is a little baloney.... ive read the entire book and im a huge fan of it but seriously i cannot stress enough that the plot isnt the same. Waverly and blake dont meet the way they did in the movie, and blake doesnt have the same 'hatred' he was supposed to. He also lowkey seems a little white washed, he's supposed to be more tan.
But dont take my word for it. Just watch it yourself if you're curious about it.

This romcom sounded like it would be interesting as I do like both of the actors and the setting in a small town seemed enchanting for a good romcom but I've not read the book.
However, the chemistry between the two leads is terrible and Al ost non existent so it's hard to imagine that they would have any interest in each other so the romance part just doesn't work which is just bad casting on the Directors or Producers part.
The acting is fine by both leads and it has nothing to do with anything but lack of chemistry. As on one hand you have a very pretty petite Asian girl that looks like she's 15 years old in a bathing suit, and a lifeguard that looks like he's twice her age and twice her height - Which is bad casting so maybe they could've cast it differently with either a younger main male lead or a slightly more mature older female lead but regardless these two had zero chemistry.
And the story is pretty basic with no real surprises which rarely matters in a good romcon provided the 2 leads have chemistry so the film did not work and felt like a bad Hallmark film.
5 stars.

There's been a lot of chatter about the film's technical shortcomings , whether it's the script or acting, but I think some of that criticism misses the point of what this film is trying to offer. It's not aiming to be a cinematic masterpiece; it's aiming to make you feel something. And in that regard, it delivers.
The movie leans into that classic feel-good formula: a little tension here, a bit of frustration there, but ultimately it wraps you in a warm, comforting narrative that leaves you smiling and curious about what's next for the characters. Maybe we'll get a sequel, maybe we won't, but I finished it with that pleasant sense of wanting just a bit more.
Speaking personally, as someone whose daily life feels like a non-stop balancing act of responsibilities, this film gave me something I didn't know I needed: a break. For an hour and forty minutes, I got to step away from the stress and just be in a world that felt lighter, softer, and more hopeful. It was cute, it was fun, and, unexpectedly, it brought back those long-lost butterflies you get when you have your first crush. That kind of nostalgic emotional hit is rare, and it gave the story an extra layer of charm for me.
Is it perfect? No. But not every film needs to be flawless to be meaningful. Sometimes, it's enough that a movie can offer a bit of joy, a sense of connection, and a chance to forget reality for a while. And on those terms, this one absolutely succeeded.

Merrily merrily merrily ... gently down the stream. Or something along those lines - no pun intended and I obviously know the song has different lyrics. Still felt it made sense. Especially considering the constellation here and the relationship the two main characters have. It's not entirely out of the realm of ... things that seem unlikely ... yet they don't seem to be a perfect fit either.
Well we all know where this is going to end up. So it is not so much where we are getting at, but the journey there (be it the boat that floats or other means of (love) transportation) ... the actors do a decent enough job - especially if you are into romantic comedies.
