POINT BREAK is a high-velocity thrill ride in which clean-cut FBI agent Johnny Utah (Keanu Reeves) goes head to head with surfer renegade Bodhi (Patrick Swayze). Rookie Utah is assigned to go undercover to investigate a string of 28 bank robberies by a gang called the Ex-Presidents. With very little to go on--the Ex-Presidents are adept at their trade, deal only in cash, and never leave behind clues--Utah's only lead comes from his partner Pappas (Gary Busey). Pappas believes that the Ex-Presidents are a surfer gang, lead by charismatic adrenaline junkie Bodhi. Posing as a surfer himself, Utah slowly becomes a member of Bodhi's gang, enticed by his energy and craziness. As Utah's investigation goes deeper, with dazzling extreme sports hijinks that involve night surfing, sky diving, and well-executed bank robberies that serve as the glue between his world and Bodhi's, Utah must ultimately choose between duty and friendship. Director Kathryn Bigelow presents a well-sculpted masterpiece with this action-lover's dream, adding another gem to an already glowing filmography (K-19: THE WIDOWMAKER, WILD PALMS, and THE WEIGHT OF WATER).

Shallow as a frying pan....I cannot think of another fifteen relevant words to fulfill my reviewers requirement. You might like it though...
Surf's out for the Point Break sequel - the film has been shelved. Point Break Indo was due to shoot in Australia and Indonesia without the stars of the 1991 original, and Lori Petty, who appeared in the cult film, isn't surprised the film project has drowned without her, Patrick Swayze or Keanu Reeves. She tells MovieHole.net, "How can do they do a sequel and not put me, Keanu or Patrick in it? I mean, even a cameo - like a Where's Waldo kind of thing. "(We could be) in the background... Read more
