GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Winifred The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
chrisraf Keanu Reeves coming off of his My Own Private Idaho performance. He shows on this movie what he's going to become in the future. This is his action movie coming out party, and it's fantastic! Classic.
Alan Smithee Esq. It's a tale old as time...undercover FBI agent learning how to surf while simultaneously infiltrating a gang of bank robbers that like wearing masks of former Presidents during their heists and have a penchant for extreme sports. Sign me up. While it might sound like a macho man type of movie it comes from a very gifted female director who would go on to win a well deserved Academy award ("The Hurt Locker") later in her career. Needlessly and poorly re-made a couple years ago. If there's nothing new or more to say with a premise then why re-do it? it. Stick with the original.
rvtwax Point break is a lot of fun. It is really enjoyable. you can see it with your family, partner, even with your dog. I would say it is a nice movie and it makes you want to go to the beach and surf. There are a bunch of scenes in which the leading character and sub are surfing. Basically, this is a romance story and bank robber story combined. A policeman who is working the case about really ridiculous bank robbers figures out that they are surfers from a secret camera in a bank. To get info about the bank robbers, he pretends to be a surfer and int he meantime runs into one attractive girl who will cause a lot of......that is scene you will enjoy. What makes the film special is the leading actor who was fabulous. You will definitely have fun and with it.
imit-05833 I think the best part of this movie is after Utah(Keanu Reaves) discovered who the bank robbers were. During his undercover mission in which he tried to get closer to some surfers in order to get some information, he learned how the leader of the bank robbers(Patrick Swayze) thought. Actually, he could have killed him because he had a lot of chances to do it. However, he didn't dare do it because he spent time with the bank robbers and felt sympathy towards the leader. For example(spoiler) in the final scene where he succeeds in putting handcuffs on him but then unlocks it and lets him go into the sea to surf one last wave and kill himself in nature instead of letting him get arrested. I like this story, however, what I don't like was his position. As far as he is a police officer, he has to save people but in one scene they robbed a bank with him, he was just standing and doing nothing. He could have done something. When some people were injured by them, he should have taken action. Therefore, I think it's good that in the last scene of this movie, he throws his police ID toward the shore.
