POINT BREAK

Re-made in 2015, we take a look at the classic 1991 original version of Point Break. Starring Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves, the title refers to a surfing term “point break”, where a wave breaks a it hits the point of land from the coastline. With Reeves as a novice undercover FBI agent investigating a series of bank robberies, he develops a complex friendship with leader of the gang (Swayze).

One of the most memorable heist scenes comes where they imitate the ex-Presidents – wearing masks depicting former Presidents; Regan, Nixon, Johnson and Carter, raiding cashier drawers in the banks, in and out in 90 seconds. Perfect precision, making excellent cinema.
