The Bouw-Man.
With stories of individuals overcoming physical limitations to reach their dreams and potential, often times you’re looking at a pretty standard movie script. Sometime during the story a tragic event takes place, which in the case of “Soul Surfer” is when the main character loses her arm from a shark attack. Despite insurmountable odds, the main character summons the courage to re-enter the water where the tragedy took place, and continue surfing like she had intended before the accident. Depending how the story is told, it is bound to be inspirational to at least a certain percentage of film-goers. The fact that it’s based on a true story, will only add to the dramatic effect. If you enjoy watching these types of films, then there’s little doubt that “Soul Surfer” will provide what you’re craving. However, in the grand scheme of things, I’m not sure this is the best form of entertainment for your movie dollar.
