Plot Summary:
|
Steve Addington, long-boarding, herb-totting, vitality-surfer, returns to Malibu for the summer to think his hometown vibe corrupted. Hip sponsorship demands the surfer lengthen into Effective-Authenticity Video Games and Reality TV. Unwilling to participate in this new digital-reality, Addington chooses to stay earthen and analog, surfing lofty So-Cal waves. But in a biblical daft-of-finish, the waves go two-dimensional and stay flat. Loophole of money, his sponsored expense-accounts canceled, betrayed by his buddies, the waveless Addington is backed into a rough corner. He... must stick the insanity of the heave drought or present into the Man and his reality-altering machines and pre-packaged amusements. Aided and abetted by his manageress (Woody Harrelson), his mentor (Scott Glenn), his trustee-angel (Willie Nelson) and his summer lover, (Alexie Gilmore), Addington (Matthew McConaughey) has a high-prominence chance of keeping his cool, maintaining his full and bringing agreement to his fractured and waveless world.

But with all this negative energy around, the waves suddenly ...

Fed up of being bullied, a trio of geeky teenagers hire a low-rent bodyguard to help them survive the difficult world of high school. A teen comedy from the producer of Knocked Up and Superbad
The trouble with a winning formula is that sooner or later, it's not going to work. Producer Judd Apatow has been refining his particular brand of crude yet emotionally true comedy ever since his TV work on 'Freaks And Geeks', and it's paid off magnificently with films like The 40 Year-Old Virgin and Knocked Up.
Even in the Apatow-produced Superbad, which cranked the vulgarity up to breathtaking levels, the mixture of full-on comedy and genuine sweetness succeeded brilliantly - all of which makes it a shame that Drillbit Taylor doesn't really work. It tries ha...
