Does it occur to any baby boomer that this is a modern version of...
...of GIDGET?

Sure did! and I love the Gidget movie, too!
Of course, the The Endless Summer(1966) & The Endless Summer 2 are the films that really take me away.....from the landlocked Midwest for an hour and a half. Perfect films to watch if you love surfing!
A lot more like Endless Summer with a serviceable plot line grafted on. Works awfully well as that.
shareBlue Crush is nothing like Endless Summer. The only thing they have in common is surfing. Saying Blue Crush is a modern version of Endless Summer would be like saying Saving Private Ryan was a modern version of Stalag 17 because they were both about WW2.
The Endless Summer is about a couple guys traveling around the globe, searching for undiscovered surf locations and meeting interesting locals. It was done documentary style with a narrator. Blue Crush is about a woman overcoming her fear.
