Point Break (1991) This hit movie stared Patrick Swayze, Keanu Reeves, Gary Busey and Lori Petty as well as some other super notable actors. For Patrick Swayze this was another movie in a string of hits such as Dirty Dancing, Road House and Ghost. And for Keanu this was his next big hit after the first Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure.
Point Break is Johnny Utah (Keanu) as a young FBI agent paired with Gary Busey’s character Angelo Pappas. Angel has been working a case chasing a gang of bank robbers that called The Ex-Presidents. They commit bank robberies all wearing masks of Presidents Regan, Carter, Nixon and Johnson. Angelo Pappas believes they’re all surfers based upon security footage where one of bandits moons everyone. The tan lined ass cheeks are all Pappas has to go on until Johnny Utah shows up.
Point Break’s Johnny has to go deep undercover and learn to surf in order to try prove the surfer gang theory. Utah, having no surfing experience, befriends Lori Petty’s character Tyler to help him learn how to surf. Of course Johnny falls for Tyler who is the former girl friend of Swayze’s character (Bodhi). Bodhi turns out to be the leader of The Ex-Presidents. But, what starts out as just an undercover operation turns out to be more complicated as Johnny Utah forms a bond with Bodhi and friends.
There are several other notable actors in Point Break including John C. McGinley from Scrubs fame. And also appearances from Anthony Kiedis (Red Hot Chili Peppers) and Tom Sizemore.
All and all after watching this I was surprised how well this holds up. While there are a few things that may make the movie feel dated, for the most part this is still a good solid action movie.
