Point Break

1991 · 2h 2m · Action, Thriller, Crime

IMDb 7.3 Metacritic 60 RT 68%

Yes, watch it tonight—this is pure 90s action cinema gold with an absurd premise (surfer bank robbers in presidential masks) that somehow works, anchored by Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze in their prime. Director Kathryn Bigelow brings real style to the chase sequences, and the film has earned cult-classic status for a reason: it's thrilling, visually dynamic, and doesn't take itself too seriously.

Plot

In Los Angeles, a gang of bank robbers who call themselves The Ex-Presidents commit their crimes while wearing masks of Reagan, Carter, Nixon and Johnson. Believing that the members of the gang could be surfers, the F.B.I. sends young agent Johnny Utah to the beach undercover to mix with the surfers and gather information.
