    One of the rare films that just NEVER gets old, and you find yourself just randomly wanting to watch it. 10/10.

    'Point Break' is my ultimate favourite movie of all time; I relished it as a young kid when it came out on VHS and honestly it helped shape me as a person. I hired a bar with a 'cinema' to screen it for my birthday a few years ago, and when I met Kathryn Bigelow after a 'Hurt Locker' Q&A she seemed happy when I informed her of my adoration for her work and that her movie had made me learn to surf and jump out of airplanes. RIP Patrick Swayze aka The Bodhisatva. Excellent video JoBlo!

    I saw Point Break in 1991, it was a double feature at a drive-in theatre about a year before it closed. The other movie was Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man. Probably the ultimate early 90s movie experience

    "Utah, get me 2."
    This is by far the greatest surfing 🌊 cops and robbers flick starring 2 of Hollywood hottest hunks Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves. The long take chase scene between Reeves and Swayze through backyards is the best I have seen on film.
    This was James Cameron's 2nd biggest blockbuster. As he was the producer on this flick that was directed by his ex wife Kathryn Bigelow.
    It was so good, that it's plot was ripped off for the first Fast and Furious movie.🍕🍕🍕

So James Cameron got his own back on his Ex. He helped with Point Break as executive producer which probably explains again why again it’s so amazing. Don’t want a sequel.

    Underrated Review! Point Break is the mother of so many Action Film templates & tropes -- It makes me want to surf and was intense enough to get me to Skydive! Def.a movie u proudly introduce to a new generation who only know the Matrix & John Wick. Btw Swayze & Keanu have great sounding Star names that fit the Zen Action genre. A philosophical connection the remake lacked. (Come to think of it, reminiscent of themes in Bruce Lee films.) 🤛🐉🌊🏄‍♂️🤙

      Did you know the surfing term ?
      I knew of human breaking point terms. (It's common parlance and indeed the name of a TV series and somewhat of a trope)
      Who has educated who ?
      Since the title encompasses both definitions and only did it so well after it was changed from a skating movie.
      Or have you been sleeping through your entire life ?
