Is Back to the Beach a masterpiece of postmodernism? Or just a slaphappy hoot? Hey, why can't it be both? Either way, this is a zippy tribute to/spoof of the 1960s Beach Party pictures. Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello, landlocked in the Midwest since their surfing days, return to the California sun with their wild kids. There are mucho gags about the earlier films (including Frankie on a surfboard in front of a cheesy rear-projection wave), and cameos (much of the Leave It to Beaver cast, surf-guitar king Dick Dale). Pee-wee Herman sails in to perform "Surfin' Bird," and Annette teaches a thousand people "The Jamaican Ska." All that's missing is Erich von Zipper. This is a genuinely smart and funny movie, although it helps to know the original films, so you can savor the moment a beach boy gazes at Annette and marvels, "After all that surfing, her hair's perfectly dry!" --Robert Horton

He shuffles around the movie looking like he just stepped out of the Blue Oyster ... Read More

If you like anything about surfing movies, or surf music, or old TV shows and actors, you will like this movie. It's goofy and predictable, sure. But what isn't anymore? If you are a Stevie Ray Vaughan fan, or a Dick Dale fan, then their scenes are worth owning the DVD for.

Such a classic that is all there is to say. If you like cheezed out 80s movies, you will like this.

very lighthearted a little bit slow in some places. On the whole a good watch. Frankie and Annette are always good entertainment. The son was a bratty kid who never seemed to get punished fot the things he did. Lori Loughlin was good in her character.

This is an update to all the Beach Movies with Annette and Frankie. They are married with children but Frankie is "longing" for those old beach glory days. They take a nostalgic trip back for the fun but dealing with the reality of being a different generation. They are also dealing with the problems of raising their children and being PARENTS now.
To those who lived this time with the "Beach" movies, there are subtle jokes that only the "seasoned" watcher will pick up but is still ... Read More
