Point Break

Newly Added • 2h 2m

Directed by Kathryn Bigelow • 1991 • United States
Starring Keanu Reeves, Patrick Swayze, Lori Petty

Cops-and-robbers action meets sun-kissed surfing counterculture for the most ecstatically adrenalized cult classic of the 1990s. Keanu Reeves stars as Johnny Utah, the hotshot FBI rookie who goes undercover as a novice surfer to catch the “Ex-Presidents,” a band of audacious, rubber-masked bank robbers whom he suspects are using the loot to fund their beach-bum lifestyle. From the epic, wave-crashing surfing sequences to a dizzying skydiving climax, director Kathryn Bigelow orchestrates bravura set pieces that are hypnotic—almost zen—in their purity.
