After some awfully hamfisted exposition, 4 friends (seemingly only friends because their Dads are mates) decide on a road trip for a very weakly established plot point. Along the way they make terrible decisions and act like they're in a first time community theatre production. I can't stress this enough- this is awful and my best guess is someone did this as a favour to someone who needed money laundered. There's NO reason. For this film to exist. Not so bad it's good, just bad. Not enough substance here to write anything more on the film so I'll end on saying Rasputin by Bony M is a killer track.

Beautiful cinematography and considering they had a very tight budget and time frame, plus the weather gods were apparently against them - they've done a marvellous job! Some well known faces and some up-and-coming Aussie stars. Enjoyable and easy to watch; particularly if you like surfing. Sons of Summer is a captivating Australian drama that skillfully explores the complexities of family relationships and the pursuit of personal dreams. With its stunning visuals, exceptional performances, and thought-provoking narrative, this film is a must-watch for fans of heartfelt storytelling. Clive Fleury's directorial prowess shines through, making "Sons of Summer" a memorable addition to the Australian film industry. Reminiscent of days gone by. Support our Aussie film industry and go see it!
