Just in case you forgot there’s a Point Break remake coming, there’s a new trailer to remind you. You can
watch it if you’re interested in such things.
For the most part, I’m good at separating adaptations,
sequels, reboots, rehashes, and the like from what came before. New versions of
movies or TV shows I love don’t in any way tarnish my fondness for the
originals, and I don’t usually sweat the details of adaptations as long as they
get the spirit right.
That said, this one stings a little bit. Point
Break up there on my all time favorite movies list, and this just
looks so empty, so completely and utterly soulless, that all I can do is look
at it and sigh. To be honest, this looks like some generic, forgettable extreme
sports movies that would have come out in the early 2000s, riding the same wave
a the likes of xXx.
Who knows, maybe this will be good, stranger things have
happened. And in the grand scheme of things, it doesn’t matter how I feel,
because this is happening. Point Break hits theaters on
December 25, just in time to ruin Christmas for everyone.
