Point Break | Movie Review

If you have not seen Point Break, you haven't fully lived yet. Point Break is a 1991 action, adrenaline movie that stars Crazy Swayze and Kung Fu Keanu. The film is about an undercover FBI Agent who is trying to catch four bank robbers known as 'The Ex Presidents'.

So of course, a film like this would be full of 90's action, questionable acting and horrible dialogue. Well yes and no. There are some really cheesy aspects to this film, but they enhance the overall enjoyment of the film. And that is why I do not think that this film could be remade even though the studios seem determined to do it anyway.

Keanu Reeves delivery of his lines is so 'surfer' like, even before he begins surfing mind you. Patrick Swayze comes across the same way but seeing as he is portraying a surfer in the film, it works a lot better than Keanu 'I take the skin off my chicken' Reeves. Not to say he wasn't bad ass, just not exactly oscar worthy. And this film has Gary Busey in it and to say he wasn't terrible is saying a lot given the circumstances.

I'm going to give Point Break
