I just watched Point Break after about 25 years and it was so awesomely bad.

This movie was released in 1991.

Analysis: There were shitskins in it who were “bad guys”. Patrick Swayze was an awesome guy. Busey is a cool nut bag. The acting was horrendous, but somehow made the movie more endearing (???). There was masculinity everywhere without it being an implied reason to dislike the characters, except Lori Petty, who acted and looked like a scrawny guy. There were some really beautiful shots of skydiving. The plot was terrible, yet somehow was 1000 times more watchable and enjoyable than anything I’ve seen in the last 15 years. Lots of eye candy for me too. Did not seem like a huge subversion body slam as most movies become when watching again, minus the part where Swayze called one trashy surfer guy a ‘Nazi’, which is why I will deduct one half a star. 3.5 out of 4 stars. Would watch again.

You've got to hear Adam Carolla's take on the movie. On point and fucking funny as hell.

Two bricks, coming up.
