Out of ten, how amazing is Point Break...

[Sadken]

I actually quite like Scarface - but I prefer Carlito's Way as a piece of cinematographic art, as it were.

I have never seen it, oddly. I've now got a loooooooot of time on my hands, so I'll get round to it soon & let you know what I reckon.

 

[internetstalker]

Carlito's Way > Scarface

I Thought they were both class TBF and not much in it.

Scareface wins

I could get my step son to watch scareface but not Carlito's way IYSWIM

 

[stupid dogbot]

I think I prefer the narrative style and the camera work in CW - it's a personal preference thing, you know.

 

[Stoat Boy]

Good ? Its all good.

Second only to 'Con Air' when it comes to my favourite Hollywood 'Blockbusters'

 

[g force]

The script is fucking AMAZING! It's one of the most quotable films of all time! The music is brilliant - Giorgio Mororder and Debbie Harry ffs! The clothes....oh, man, the clothes....it's really a sensationally good film.

It's not even a student film, ffs! It's a hip hop head film, traditionally.

Spaceballs is quotable...doesn't make it a compelling narrative.

Anyhow Point Break. Utterly shit film.

...and, if you don't like it, please explain why you are such a stupid knobend. Astonish me, shitface.

0/10

Why so bad, two words, Keanu Reeves.

0/10

Why so bad, two words, Keanu Reeves.

............but it has a KEANU REEVES! An ACTUAL one.

 

[g force]

Keanu was good in The Matrix where he didn't have to betray any emotions. Much like Jude Law playing an android on AI. Perfect casting....after that he's fucked....although Bill and Ted is still good

............but it has a KEANU REEVES! An ACTUAL one.

Yes, hence the reason it's 0/10.

 

[rennie]

You're a woman of a certain age, and haven't seen a film with Reeves and Swayze in?

:headshake:

I know!

 

[krtek a houby]

Never seen it. But I enjoyed "Blue Crush"; that's a surfer chick film...

 

[Ted Striker]

There's, like, no pretence that people are engaging in normal conversations at all - it's just all zingers!

Action movie for "chicks" IMO

(which, yes, essentially means it's of no artistic/student-kitsch/ironic/nutritional value at all, it's just shit. Soz)

 

[100% masahiko]

You're so wrong about TF&TF it's almost causing me physical pain.

Same story exactly - but with cars & bikes and truck hijackings instead of bank jobs wearing facemasks.

But it's still the fucken nuts, especially the cars. OMFG there are some cars in that film.

You obviously have taken far too many drugs.
Too Fast Too Furious. Don't get me started.

"For those 10 seconds I'm Free."

The bald twat should have more wanks then

I liked Point Break when I saw it first. Then I watched it again about 10 years ago and thought it was hilariously crap.

Watched 10 minutes of it the other night and it was utterly unwatchable. Complete bobbins.

[not-bono-ever]

its a romp

yes I know it has a rubbish plot/ bad acting blah blah blah

but so has Romancing the stone and that a winner

 

[cesare]

I watched that last night and really enjoyed it

Didn't have to think too much, didn't make me cry or anything shit like that, just entertainment

[Sadken]

"they call him the Bhodisatva"

That bit drew a genuine lol from me.

 

[Pieface]

Jefe was SO unimpressed

 

[Sadken]

LOL, I just remembered - I watched it with Stella - and she GENUINELY was saying to me that Patrick Swayze was NOTHING at all to do with the bank robbers. Like, he was just in it as some bloke or something! She believed that with such conviction that, when they stormed the house of those dealers with the guns, she was giving it all "HA! I told you!!" till I pointed out the film had only been going about 40 mins or so at that stage.

 

[fogbat]

He had an innocent face

Oh no, now you're just lying
