Not as exciting as the first film, this one can't decide whether it's a tarvelogue, an adventure, or National Geographic documentary.

Had The Endless Summer II stuck to its subject, it would be a pleasant diversion. But it is weighed down with frivolous travel vignettes that are as dull as they are cute and contrived.
Stephen Holden, New York Times
Rotten
Pretty hard to sit through, because Brown's incessant beach boy prattle is endlessly irritating.
Joe Brown, Washington Post
Rotten
Although the movie runs 95 minutes, it contains nothing much in the way of information about surfing.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Fresh
One of those rare bits of movie marginalia that are entirely without merit and, still, a pleasure to sit through.
Hal Hinson, Washington Post
