"Point Break" is the movie of all time for me.
If you're going to drag yourself away from life for the next two hours or so you need something to keep you gripped all the time.
Why watch a movie that you could basically live yourself. A movie's about escapism.
Point break was made in the early 90's and because it didn't really have much in the way of special effects, holds it's own in todays films.
It had Keanu Reeves who has always been a big money bringer and Patrick Swayze (before his downfall into less and less movies), joined together on screen, and it works well.
The movie's about adrenaline. It's got fantastic photography through the surf scenes, and keeps you in with the action from the steadycam operated chase scenes.
It has you questioning how the movie's going to turn out, and has the stereo-typical blockbuster love story embedded into it.
Plus Patrick Swayze jumping out of a plane for real.
And the best line in my opinion :-
"Just feel it all moving in the blackness... you don't need to see."
"Yeah, right, vision is highly over-rated."
