Enjoyable nonsense with ridiculously macho performances.

There's a new thing called RAYdar MAYbe you've HEARD of it.

"Young, dumb & full of cum"- perhaps the most perfect description of Keanu ever, and he lives up to it by getting gloriously dumb here. It's Kathryn Bigelow & co. who slip the smarts into this picture; from superb use of setpieces (the multi-purpose lawnmower) to the understated bits of the script (note the revelations of Keanu's final scene as they apply to his original cover story), and mostly an awe of the natural world, from the enormous sound of waves to the gorgeous skydiving landscape.

Classic genre action flick. Not believable in the slightest, but if you're not supposed to care. You leave your skepticism at the door when watching a movie where FBI agent Keanu Reeves goes undercover with surfing bank robbers... also, there's Gary Busey.

Young, dumb, and full of FUN.

Incredible, mind-numbing plotline redeemed by great surfing and skydiving scenes. Assured, fast-moving direction by Bigelow keeps this movie hanging five, if not ten... though Swayze is in desperate need of a hair stylist here.

3/5

This movie is like that kid in school that dressed metal and had a mohawk but went home and listened to Cher. It felt like the movie was trying way too hard to be badass and cool. I did laugh quite a bit though, so that is a plus.

Fast-paced, high-adrenaline drama. Features two exciting and extraordinary action sequences -- one a foot chase, the other with sky divers.

Probably pretty fun if you're drunk/high but sadly I was neither.

Flawless! Just about every action scene you can think of is here, and Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves are excellent together, as well as the other cast members.

Everything about this movie is ridiculous but yet it's strangely compelling. Is it Patrick Swayze? He does make a great and nuanced villain in this movie. Is it the sunset beach setting? The skydiving sequences? It's difficult to pin down what makes it good. It's still one of the most memorable 90's action flicks and this is one of those movies that seems to capture the genre and the time really well. Keanu Reeves is a ham but he's perfect for this. Coke addled Busey makes his appearance too.

Another "so bad, it's good" entry

Cheesy but a competent action film.

Though the movie isn't deep or enlightening at all it's certainly not disappointing. I'll admit I was expecting some mediocre action fare but Point Break is indeed a memorable action flick with some really impressive action and some great lines. Sure it's a bit goofy to combine surfing with bank robbing but Bigelow manages to get some stellar shots together making all of them great to watch.

There are enough stunning free fall scenes to maintain interest throughout, but the plot is pedestrian and Keanu is as horrid as ever.

Dumb, but fun.

Mistake - The records of Tyler change between shots. They first say that she has black hair and blue eyes, but a couple of shots later, it can be seen that the records now say that Tyler has blonde hair and green eyes.
