Point Break

I don't know what possessed me to watch this. I guess I still remember with much affection Kathryn Bigelow's first film, Loveless, made ten years before this.Patrick Swayze is just about alright, Keanu Reeves is not Lori Petty but maybe it is just the crap script and lazy directing that pulls this down. Bigelow is far too in awe of her actors to bother getting the to act and relies instead of the ridiculous premise upon which this film is set. Avid surfers who put on ex-presidents' masks to rob banks, oh yea! Not long since I watched the amazing Big Wednesday so there was little chance I would be impressed here especially as much of the footage seems slipped in from elsewhere. Now and again the film spluttered to life but then it was back to boys playing ball or fighting before we dragged ourselves back to the ridiculous non story this is.

Both Patrick and Keanu are great in this film. I've wached it more times than I can count. Even went to Point Break Live twice in Los Angeles. The remake was terrible. Long live the OG Point Break! -- Ross Senack.
