    Recommandations

    • 90

      Los Angeles Times

      Prechezer's cast is ingratiating and attractive, and Blue Juice is as buoyant as its terrific rock score.

      Variety

      Absolutely charming, unabashedly offbeat Blue Juice is a quirky comedy billed as Britain's first surf pic.
    • 80

      Empire

      Although this may sometimes appear to be simply a bawdy soap opera, first-time director Prechezer injects such joie de vivre into proceedings that it scarcely matters.

      TV Guide Magazine

      Ramshackle as comedy and mundane as drama, this noisily energetic and splashily - literally - photographed hang-ten flick doesn't wipe out due to spectacular surfing stunts and the fun of seeing McGregor and Zeta-Jones in pre-stardom mode.

      The Globe and Mail (Toronto)

      The movie seems much, much longer than its 90-minute running time. [15 June 1998]
