Point Break

I should start with a disclaimer - I never was a big fan of the original "Point Break". I found it cheesy and silly, but it did have style and character. This, however, was a goat-fuck of a film. First of all, what in sweet holy hell did this have to do with the original film? Other than a couple of name, nothing at all. Hell, I don't even know why they named it "Point Break", as it truly wasn't a remake at all. They weren't even surfers for fuck's sake! The only reason this gets a star is that the action sequences are truly beautiful. The free-climbing and the squirrel-suit diving were particularly gorgeous, so it has that at least. But character, plot, continuity... none of that here. Truly a wasted "remake". 2/5
