Awesome Hi-Def Fun!
Keanu is constantly, and will probably always be, lampooned as the quintessential dumb surfer. This is the movie that started it. Well, this and Bill & Ted. But that's another review for a later day.Despite too many viewings with the film's initial release (WAY too many viewings), this BD release sells it dead on. The light off the water makes you feel right there with the waves rolling in at your face. Then there's skydiving, bank robberies, chases, etc. You've probably seen the film and you know just as well as I do that this is a really fun action flick. I haven't seen it in years until tonight. And it's still just as fun.If you have it already on DVD but are fence-sitting about buying the BD, stop fence-sitting and buy it. The picture quality and the sound is simply amazing.... A five-star event.But save yourself from watching the special features - they constantly say the same thing about everything and everyone. For 43 minutes. So, four out of five, just based on the BD release. It's a shame they couldn't do better. This is one of those films that deserves more than it got.
