'Point Break (1991)' is a pretty low-level high-concept movie, clearly spawned from an initial logline of an idea that just sounded 'cool'. The result is a series of successful set-pieces and an overall synopsis much more powerful than the string of story-beats used to connect it all together. There's enough here to raise this above the schlock it could have been, though, including decent direction and above-average performances - a pretty nuanced, and perhaps even career-best, turn from Swayze is the highlight. The break-neck action is confidently crafted and practically punching its way through the screen at all times, and it's really this that keeps you on-board throughout. 7/10

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.

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.

This movie was describes about relationship as unusual and delicate friendship between 2 men. The sky diving scene was so beautiful. Music was effective. Keanu Reeves was very shiny. (I have a talk with Keanu about the film at Suzuka, after 8 hours endurance race-Suzuka. He said, "That was very long time ago..." He was so nature and kind person.) ... I miss about Mr.Patrick Swayze.. Rest in Peace...
