Pointless But Visually Stunning

Rating: 2/10 (3 September 2016)

Anyone rating this movie higher than 5 stars is just being generous, have low standards, or don't appreciate basic movie making principles. I will list these principles and how this movie measures up in each of them
1. Acting- Acting brings you into the story and make you care about the characters and the story. In this movie the acting is cool and stale. You don't care about these characters and the larger story because of there poor acting. I see better acting in video game cut scenes regularly.
2. Plot - Point Break has an interesting story-line but the story telling is hindered by the acting and the pure focus on action scenes instead of character development. The original Point Break was good because philosophically there were no bad guys and seeing either side "lose" in a way made you feel bad. In the end you don't pay attention to this 2015 version's dialogue enough due to the bad acting to feel anything or understand the philosophy fluidly as the movie progresses
3. Visual - This movie is visually stunning but that does not make a movie it makes a good commercial, documentary of extreme sports, or a good demo video for new Digital Video Display Technology. But in modern Hollywood visual excellence is probably the easiest thing to get right so in my opinion it is clearly over rated in its impact to this movie's average rating on IMDb.com.
Summary, this movie is a total waste of time and Hollywood resources. Without the visual impact this is a walk out worthy movie. If truly want a great visual experience only then it my be worth your time but there too many other great movies, documentaries and other media sources that provide an equally great visual experience. Exhaust those other options before wasting time watching this.
