Cora Hamilton (Debby Ryan) is working to be the next IT girl. Her controlling mother runs a NY modeling agency who is mostly concerned about getting her a big modeling contract. After an embarrassing incident goes viral, she decides to run away to her aunt Margot living in a beach house in Australia. Margot is still haunted by the lost of her husband. There are hunky surf teacher Tom and local surf girl Chicka. Cora learns surfing and gets to design for the vintage fashion show.
The story is pretty thin. It's not far from Ryan's Disney TV material. There isn't much in terms of drama or tension. It has some nice character growth but isn't much more than that. It's got some pretty scenery and a few pretty people. I'm guessing that this Australian production comes with local talents. The acting is fine. There is nothing out right bad but there is nothing that interesting either.

I absolutely loved this movie. Such a good movie of coming to age, family expectations, and becoming yourself when you don't think it's possible. I have no clue why there's bad reviews here - this movie was great from start to finish for me! I fell in love with every character and followed the movie easily.
Keep in mind that this is m first review and i english is not my first language.
This movie, in my opinion, is not that good and there is so much that i didn't like it but most of it it was Cora, the lead actress. I actually like her and i don't know if it was just me but i didn't feel the chemestry during the movie, whoerever with her mother, aunt or the boy she liked. But maybe i'm wrong.
Most of the movie she is posing for the camera and i feel like its a typical disney cliché (and i don't even know if this is a disney movie).
Overall, i didn't feel like it was a bad movie or something like that but in my opinion is not that great either.
You will find yourself picking your phone and scrolling through instragam, for example, while the movie is on and some parts i find it cringe. Maybe im just a bad reviewer but this is not worth more than 6 stars.
I would love this movie if there was more talking/acting instead of whole scenes of just their faces looking at things. It was beautiful though, but I would prefer the characters actually talking to each other instead so we could get to know them more.
Hmmm, you know that movie "Afternoon Session", so I loved it, that's it. Going and moving, a light story, that parades the actors and catching you, yes, a cool movie! I did not give anything for him, but I liked it, I recommend it, for those who want something like this .... Movie about choices and relationship.
The plot is about an aspiring model who makes a trip to the interior and discovers, the good things that exist in places like that !!!!
It is the second film of the young Australian filmmaker Rhiannon Bannenberg, who previously did Ambrosia (2015), which received a great note in IMDB 8.1! The protagonist is young American Debby Ryan, who has made many TV series and movies, and this is still one of her first feature films. Also featuring beautiful Australian actress Genevieve Hegney who had already made Amber Amulet (2013), Love Without Sin (2013) and Candy (2006).
