1. John Smith - 1 out of 5 stars - I was extremely disappointed with "Surf witches rock". The plot was incredibly weak and disjointed, and the characters were one-dimensional and uninteresting. The surfing scenes, which I thought would be the highlight of the film, were poorly executed and lacked any real excitement. Overall, I found this film to be a complete waste of time and would not recommend it to anyone.
2. Sarah Johnson - 2 out of 5 stars - I had high hopes for "Surf witches rock" but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The storyline had potential but it quickly became predictable and lacked depth. The performances by the actors were mediocre at best, and I found it difficult to connect with any of the characters. The cinematography was decent, but it wasn't enough to salvage the overall lackluster experience. I would recommend skipping this film and exploring other surfing movies instead.

The climax of the movie was underwhelming and anticlimactic, leaving me feeling unsatisfied. Overall, I found this film to be a forgettable and uninspiring addition to the surfing genre.
