Anton H Many action movies from the ‘90s have wildly original concepts, the very most of which is this. Incredibly riveting action and plenty of Swayze Badassery, this is a must-see even for the idly curious. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/08/24 Full Review M B A great action movie that put the law vs bank robbers and puts personal bonds vs moral differences. This is still my favourite movie of all times. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/31/24 Full Review Fabrícia F Romance policial que mistura ação e muita adrenalina. Ingredientes que somado ao talento dos atores e o roteiro uníssono, tornam brilhante essa obra do cinema. Um clássico cult merecidamente. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/23/24 Full Review Sebastian L Fantastic cinematography is pretty much all Point Break has going for it. There are issues everywhere - directorial, tonal, dramaturgical, you name it. The experience is as uneven as Reeves acting. Swayze's performance deserves a better movie. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/17/24 Full Review DanTheMan 2 Come for the guns and money, stay for the sun-baked aphorisms and those big blue waves. Marking the end of British Summer Time with the film that led me to actively pursue surfing as a hobby, Point Break is here to show you that the human spirit is still very much alive. It's not tragic to die doing what you love. A near-perfect action film directed with a frenzied intensity by Kathryn Bigelow and one that never seeks to patronise its own material or its audience, flawlessly marring the genre clichés of the classic '80s-model cop action picture with the elevated physicality of the '90s action films to come. Bigelow showcases not just a great eye for action, but also the psychological push and pull behind it, all complemented by the sumptuous photography of Donald Peterman. Mark Isham's hauntingly eloquent score marrying perfectly to the visuals while Keanu Reeves, Patrick Swayze and Gary Busey all drown in a sea of surf-speak and adrenaline-charged thrills, turning in fantastic performances all around. Majestically powerful, even awe-inspiring, Point Break is a true feast for the eyes and even has enough high-octane, heart-racing excitement for a dozen other films, telling us this is a film without fear of what it wants to be. Fear causes hesitation, and hesitation will cause your worst fears to come true. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/26/24 Full Review timmy b Literally one of the Best Action Films ever made. Corny as some of it might be, the overall film is actually brilliant. The Directing & Cinematography is incredibly beautiful. I think that coupled with the driving music that accompanies the flow of the story elevate the Film the Legendary status. Lori Petty & Patrick Swayze as well as a bevy of passionate actors simply move this film in a way that represents some of the best that we can expect in Cinematic History, critics be damned.
