Point Break
100% pure adrenaline.
Directed by Kathryn Bigelow
Produced by Largo Entertainment, Levy/Abrams/Guerin Productions
A high-octane action thriller that pairs extreme sports spectacle with a morally conflicted undercover cop drawn into the seductive world of outlaw surfers.
In Los Angeles, a gang of bank robbers who call themselves The Ex-Presidents commit their crimes while wearing masks of Reagan, Carter, Nixon and Johnson. Believing that the members of the gang could be surfers, the F.B.I. sends young agent Johnny Utah to the beach undercover to mix with the surfers and gather information.
