Characters/Actors: Bethany Hamilton ( Annasophia "Bridge to Terabithia" Robb), Tom Hamilton ( Dennis "Dragonheart" Quaid), Cheri Hamilton ( Helen "Twister" Hunt), Sarah Hill ( Carrie "American Idol" winner Underwood), Kevin TV's "Hercules: The Legendary Journey" Sorbo, Craig T. "Coach" Nelson, etc.
Based on a true story. A home schooled teenage girl from Hawaii who surfs when most other kids her age are stuck in school loses an arm while engaging in the sport she loves. Not too long after recovering, she decides to get back in the water and competes as a championship caliber surfer against able-bodied young women. I enjoyed this movie, especially the surfing scenes and the Hawaiian scenery. However, the born-again Christian message while uplifting, was more than a little cloying. It is hard to say if country singer Carrie Underwood has much of a future as an actress, though.
