Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Solid Entertainment
Review: A movie that delivers. Finally, after watching all of those horrible Stallone, Van Damme and Seagal movies, here's a movie that has believable and tension-filled action scenes. Surfing has a good image and the actors are at the top of their game. Patrick Swayze is surprisingly good as the top burglar and Keanu Reeves is believable as an undercover cop.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Surfs up!!!
Review: Even though i don't like the "sissy boys" Reeves and Swayze, in this movie they are my idols cool surfing lifestyle and thrilling action kicks....
This and Roadhouse is the tops of Swayzes movies...!!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Good film bad dvd!
Review: I bought this dvd at a local store because I do like the film.
unfortunatly the video hangs up at the layer change.
I exchanged it twice for a grand total of three copies and always had the same problem...
So I cant recommend it till its remastered, (SE etc...)

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great Plot, bad acting.
Review: Don't get me wrong, I have liked some of like Keanu's movies, but this may be the worst single perfomance in the history of celluloid.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Keanu at his best
Review: I first saw this movie back in 1991 and loved it and I now own it on DVD. One of the best movies ever with HOTTTT Keanu Reeves. Full of action, drama and love. Excellent plot with great performances.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Point Break
Review: Reeves once again show his diversity as he goes up against veteran actor Swayze. His (Reeves) keeps getting better and better, which some movie critics hate to admit...their lost.
A movie worth watching over..especially with the junk that is on television for the fall 2001 season!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best films of 1991
Review: when action movies are done right they can prove to be a truly wonderful genre. Point Break is one fine example, and its perhaps to Kathryn Bigelows credit that this film works at all. She essentially took a direct to video script and turned it into something really fantastic. From utilizing and acknowledging the absurdity of the script and two leads in the film she was able to craft a really shining example of Hollywood filmaking.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Point Break = Pointless
Review: I had the unfortunate experience of seeing this film in the theater when it came out in '91. Definitely on my top 3 list of worst movies made in the 1990's. Avoid unless you like to rubber-neck at high-speed accidents.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Entertainment Masterpiece
Review: Kathryn Bigelow's "Point Break" is quite frankly one of the greatest films ever made mainly because what it's not; serious.
This is not a serious film...not in the least, but it is entertaining...which was exactly what the filmmakers intended. As with all action films, there are basic plot elements, and characters that are sometimes thin, but what "Point Break" contains are characters that know exactly what kind of situation they are in, thus making them believable. Patrick Swayze is especially memorable as the zen surf master, Bohdi, who believes that life is a thrill ride designed by gods. The plot is perhaps stretching it a bit (how to stop surfers that rob banks), but the film itself, taking into account the technical aspects of it, is brilliant. Executive Produced and written (uncredited) by James Cameron, Bigelow's film towers above most others in areas of energy,and in surf and aerial cinematography. The film's surf and sky-diving sequences will take your breath away. Other high- lights include virtuoso steadi-cam movement in a memorable foot-chase through a suburban neighborhood. "Point Break" is a film that knew it wasn't going to make AFI's 100 best films ever made...it knew that it wasn't going to change the world in any way...and it knew that it's existance was only to entertain. Because of that, it becomes a film that is astonishing in it's sheer amount of energy, and an example in action filmmaking.
