Point Break (1991)  - a podcast by The Back Row Network

The boys wrap up their January mini series “It’s new to me!” Where each cohost selected a movie they had never seen but always wanted to watch, with the 1991 surfing bank robbery action cult classic Point Break! 

 

This episode has lots ,and lots, and LOTS of Gary Busey jokes, as well as the late 80’s early 90’s action troupes that you no longer see in movies, the sexual tension between Swayze and Keanu, women with short haircuts, Anthony Kiedis’s weird ear cornrows, the madness of having Tom Sizemore and Busey on the same set, the aftermath of that “Utah..two” scene, jumping out of planes without parachutes, and Ice T from Law & Order makes another appearance. 

 

Also, why do FBI bank robbery agents need to fish for bricks at the bottom of a pool blindfolded? Does John think that Swayze is Gary Busey? How would a Joan Rivers red carpet interview go with this cast? Also, thank God for John Wick because some of Keanu’s acting in this is not great.
