I would recommend it to any parent looking to play games with their kids.

Seen through adult eyes, it's a sweet but slender surfing game that's consistently amusing.

Hanging 10 in this movie-licensed surfing game has its moments--just don't expect to enjoy it for very long.

The game appeals to kids, thanks to its colorful characters, but adults will find it too easy. The tricks lack complexity and the game can be beaten in a couple of sittings.

If you’re a kid and a big fan of the Tony Hawk series of skateboarding titles or similar games, Surf’s Up may be a cool addition to your collection as it is a decent pick up and play title for the ankle-biters but it really doesn’t present much of a challenge to anyone who has experienced puberty.

If the game were quite a bit longer or featured more variety, we’d feel fine recommending it to all the kiddies out there, but as it is now we can’t help thinking that even a 6 year old would feel gypped.

Certainly not a game for anyone expecting a challenge or long-term entertainment. [Oct 2007, p.86]

I have to admit that I am not the target audience. I must be 20 years too old! This was purely a purchase for the EASY 1000 gamerpoints on offer. For this though it was not all that terrible. Its an arcade style game kind of like doing the half pipe in a Tony Hawks game. You sweep up a wave, perform a stunt get some points and boost and continue. It is mixed up by having to get collectibles through some of the maps but this is easy as whatever you have picked up on previous run throughs is not present on retry attempts so its very easy to get. I would be unsure if kids would really get that much out of the game. It is very one dimensional and I personally do not thing that this would give more than a few hours before kids got bored. Graphically its not all that great and the AI is terrible (Again possibly as its a kids game) This would be a purchase for me only if cheap and if you are looking to boost you gamer score.
