Point Break! Finally!
I had never seen this film. The reason being that I was so hot and bothered for Keanu but I was totally uncomfortable watching such a film with my family in the room. My dad has seen it countless times, but I'd only seen snippets.
I have to say I loved this movie. It's an early 90's encapsulation that was like traveling back in time. There are some pretty large leaps in story (read: holes) and ridiculous circumstances, but the pace is great, the story is fun and involving, and the direction is awesome (James Cameron? I had no idea). Who doesn't love Busey going nuts, and Lori Petty? I've never been a huge Swayze fan but he did a good job. Yeah, Keanu is a piece of wood, but I love him anyway (or maybe because of it).
Admittedly the only reason we watched it is because our DVD player is getting cranky in its old age and giving us sh.t over Netflix discs. Nope, not Slumdog Millionaire, we watched Point Break (on Netflix direct download to Tivo).
