POINT BREAK MOVIE 2015 PROFESSIONAL

Luke Bracey takes on the role of Johnny Utah and this time our group of baddies, Bodhi ( Edgar Ramirez), Grommet ( Matias Varela), Roach ( Clemons Shick),and Chowder ( Tobias Santelmann) are all European and instead of pulling bank jobs to fund adrenaline junkie lifestyles, the action men of 2015 are self aware crusaders, too cool for school, hipsters on a self-imposed mission to nirvana. Also a bit of kudos as the helmets used for a robbery here, they stuck on caricatures of the Presidents, clearly in tribute to the original version.Īnd then along comes the story. When it hits just the right velocity, it’s truly worth the watch. This is where the second coming of Point Break truly excels.

There isn’t anything new going on here, but it’s produced in a professional manner and the action scenes are handled well and while it seems like X-Games on steroids at times, some of it’s truly breathtaking. The camera work, framing of the scenes and editing give everything you could desire of a decent action flick. This film exceeds expectations in the sense that this a slickly produced action film with a truly amazing soundtrack. It’s only in the years since that we’ve come to be able to recognize it for the sheer fun it was, hence becoming a cult classic. But let us remember that when the original Point Break was released in 1991 it was universally panned and garnered quite terrible reviews. What has happened here is that the studio has produced a garden variety action movie and slapped a name on it purely for the sake of brand recognition. I am not inherently opposed to remakes and reboots, and I don’t think I could call myself a ‘purist’ as I’ve liked some re-makes and I am perfectly fine with rebooting material and even straying from original material is fine if it serves the story well.
