POINT BREAK (1991) w/ Red Hot Chili Peppers pre-show @ 6 pm
July 31 : 7:00 pm – 9:15 pm
“A full-throttle action showcase that capitalises on its ‘90s flare and rides the wave right until the end.” – Loud and Clear Reviews
Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze star in one of the greatest action movies of the 1990s! Point Break is a high-octane surf‑and‑sky thriller starring Reeves as rookie FBI agent Johnny Utah, who goes undercover to infiltrate a gang of charismatic, adrenaline‑junkie bank robbers led by the enigmatic Bodhi (Swayze). Between dawn surf sessions and gravity‑defying skydives, Utah’s loyalty frays as he’s seduced by their outlaw code and the intoxicating freedom they chase. Director Kathryn Bigelow blends pulse‑pounding action with philosophical heat, while the stars ignite the screen with kinetic homoerotic chemistry, while Lori Petty, John C. McGinley, and Gary Busey chew the luscious SoCal scenery. A cult classic that still thrills, Point Break is a raw, stylish rush.
In honor of Anthony Kiedis’ small role, we pay tribute to that equally iconic artifact of Gen X LA, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, with a pre-show at 6 pm.
