uh...no

Makes islanders seem like slacking imbeciles and the dialogue is embarrassingly unrealistic as are the nicknames for the characters. Extremely cheesy overall and visually looks like a movie made in the mid 80's. The only saving grace is the promising young actor Celia Owen, who plays Bethany.

After 20 minutes I couldn't stand another second of it, despite the appeal of the Bethany character. Most of the cast looked and sounded like complete amateurs making fools of themselves.

It's ok for the budget

Having lived in Sydney, Glace Bay Nova Scotia for a while and spending a few summers there, I know what hanging at the beach and drinking beer is all about.

Glace Bay/ Sydney is much like Prine Edward Island - full of unemployed people or on welfare - going to the beach, driving their cars up and down the empty roads and just getting frunk at people's homes.

This movie holds true to plenty of that in small towns across Canada.

What I didn't like about this film was all the unneeded swearing. There was just too much....far too much.

It needed less swearing and more story.

What I loved about this movie was the red Ford Bricklin...boy, that's a sweet ride...always wanted one.

Anyway, no award winning movie here - but for a low budget film - and a film that's not about some red haired little girl picking apples and feeding horses and living on a farm in PEI, this movie is good enough.

It's not great - but it's far better than so many huge budget movies with overblown effects.

The actors were good enough for their roles - and since a brewery financed this movie, you will probably see more than enough labels of a certain type of beer.

Far too much swearing though...far more than needed.

A great local movie production

Pogey Beach is a great low budget humorous film from the producers of "Just passing Through" the web series. The Pogey Beach movie is an expanded storyline from a scene in just passing through actually. I am an Islander who has never drawn pogey but the references are great.

I imagine this movie will be a cult classic at least in eastern Canada.

I will leave the storyline to the movie promos. What I love about this movie is that a portion of the funding was crowdsourced on kickstart. The fan base helped pay for the production of the movie and we received cool rewards and the option to be in the film as rewards.

The movie was filmed on beautiful Prince Edward Island so there are some beautiful shots of PEI. The locals got to take part in the movie as extra's so they had some fun and movie experience.

I was in the kickstart funding group and also as an extra and the production team treated us great. It was a wonderful experience being on the set and seeing how much work goes into making a movie.

So watch the movie and have a few laughs. Also check out the web series "Just Passing Through" ( also the name of the facebook group) . Please also check out "Wharf rats " from most of the same group and watch for the upcoming "Who's yer fader.

And if any of you "Come from away" people have a chance to visit our beautiful island I know you will love it. We can go down to Pogey Beach and have a few beer.
