This movie has gotten a ton of attention from the hipster crowd. I think its just an average movie. But it is still a fun watch and has a lot of rewatchability.

Ridiculous style-over-substance thriller in which a bunch of surfers go round robbing banks in between jumping out of planes and bungie jumping. Unconvincing nonsense that has far more interest in extreme sports than any kind of depth or intelligent storytelling.

Some of the action scenes (particularly, the iconic skydiving scene) are exciting, but the acting is poor and some of the lines are hilariously bad. When the film focuses on its action scenes, it succeeds, but everything else is corny and silly.

An undercover cop drama, bank robbing surfers and fast adrenaline fueled action. This movie's got it all.

A pretty good crime/action hybrid with Keaun being all he can be - with Patrick Swayze to boot! The plot isn't the greatest, but if you ignore the more ludicrous aspects, it turns out okay. One of those films that brings back 90s nostalgia.

A great movie. Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze were awesome, as usual, and their characters just pulled me in to their 'lives'. I don't usually enjoy action movies, but this I loved, and would actually go as far to say that this is my favourite action movie. It had the right mix of everything, comedy, action, romance, a great storyline, a flawless actors.

It still amazes me that people cast Keanu in anything. He's probably one of the worst actors of his generation. Given that, this movie was bad enough that it didn't matter. Could the name Johnny Utah be any more corny? And trying to make Swayze's character some kind of mystical guru was really a stretch. Lori Petty is also one of the most annoying actresses I've seen.

I really liked this one. I am almost embarrassed to say it, but with the exception of The Matrix, this may be Keanu's best film.
