You had to know this movie was going to be dumb when you watched it. But that is what makes this a fun movie. Dumb lines, bad wigs, nice location. You dont have to think, just watch and laugh at them. I would have given it a higher score if I based it on other movies of this quality. Dont judge just watch.

Not having any expectations for this film and they were somewhat met. Labeled as a teen comedy yet feels very generc and bland. Everything is quite predictable and there seemed to be several little plots. One plot involved the lead character trying to help save the beach for his aunt (or something of that sort), the other involved his two friends trying to get the attention of two Swedish women (bad accents came across from them). Peter Dante seemingly received top billing for his role as the aging legend surfer who was trying to get back on his feet and in shape (occasionally had fantasies of Pamela Anderson- we wonder how she wounded up in this film). Overall Costa Rican Summer doesn't exactly provide anything new, it does have a low budget but the scenery of the island and beaches are well done. Some t&a of the two Swedish women (about 4 scenes). Otherwise don't expect any great, funny or special.

*** This review may contain spoilers *** Please be aware that within the first 5 minutes of this movie there will be the exposure of bare breasticles. *** This review may contain spoilers *** Hmmm...... I don't think too many people liked this one. Comedy would have to be one of the hardest genres to undertake, as it is so subjective and to say this a comedy is a bit of a stretch. The movie seems to be in conflict with itself, in terms of the mixing of elements, with attempts at comedy in some parts while trying to portray serious drama in others and then a weird mixture of both, as well as a random smattering of bare breasts. It just upsets the flow of the movie and makes me wonder what the target audience is, but let's not over analyse this puppy. The premise of the movie is OK and has a basic storyline, so many of these surfer type movies are devoid any story and are just about bums, tits, drugs and catching a gnarly wave. Susan Ward (Carla) does a great job and made this movie watchable with Julianna Guill (Eva) doing well also, however did not mesh well with the Brock Kelly (Kyle) character and he didn't really seem to fit the part or make believable that being friends with the other two surfer drop-kicks was possible. I have to agree that the Peter Dante character Dinger was hard to get accustomed to in the beginning, probably due to all the crazy Pammy fantasies, however becomes bearable after his transformation. The two (over the top) Swedish girls were sort of funny and are required for the introduction of the bare boobies (woo hoo!). Overall, I think this is a movie that will make most people cringe, although there are some good and some funny parts most was tedious, but there was something that made me keep watching......... it was the dollar I paid for it!....... All the way up to the most unbelievable ending.

This movie was supposed to be a teen comedy? Ehm, it never got anywhere near being a teen comedy. It was much more like watching a creature with its final death gurgles! It was unbearable. The story was lacking contents. It seemed like someone had an idea during a drinking party, and that idea somehow made it to a movie. Throughout the entire movie, I laughed maybe once. And that was at the vomiting scene. That, however, was priceless though. The rest of the movie was attempting to be funny, but never got its head above the waves. Out of the entire cast, only Susan Ward (playing aunt Carla) was the only one doing a good job. The teens had no emotions and lacked the ability to come through on the screen. The guy who played Dinger (Peter Dante), wow... that was unbelievably unbearable to watch! And how they managed to get Pamela Anderson into this movie is beyond me. But just take a look at her "acting", she seems like she doesn't really want to it as well. And what was up with the fake Swedish accent? People from Sweden do not sound like drunken German people in a bad World War II movie. I am from Denmark, and I know what Swedish people sound like when speaking English - and this is not it at all! This movie is wrongfully labeled 'comedy'. You might like it if you are into surfing and enjoy mindless movies. I just read on IMDb that there is a part 2 on the way. That fact is simply beyond my comprehension! My advise to you is to stay well clear of this movie! It is a waste of time, and trust me, you don't want to let an hour and a half go to waste on this. Sadly, I did, and I am scarred for life.
