Of course he flies through the physical tests, but before officially becoming an FBI agent, he’s privy to some information about a team of criminals that are stealing money and giving it to poor people. What about that death inspired him to join the FBI? My friend is dead, so I must join the FBI? It’s not like he was murdered. So Utah (Bracey) is an extreme sports athlete, who after losing his best friend in a tragic accident, decides to be an FBI agent… with no real explanation to that connection. I assumed the script was written by some film school reject, but it turns out it was written by the same dude who tried to reboot Total Recall, which explains a lot about this film. This movie is begging for a cinema sins, and I can’t wait to enjoy it with everyone else. The remake felt new to me, and I wasn’t familiar with the plot or where it was going. It’s recent enough that it came out in my lifetime, and I vaguely remember parts of it, like I saw it on TV or something when I was a kid. I’m not sure if I’ve seen the original Point Break or not. The end scene felt so much like “fuck it, lets just get this turd in the can” that they gave up. Granted, I thought most of them were “movie magic” and not really happening, but at least they looked fairly realistic. Which was a little shocking, because the rest of the stunts weren’t bad. They were clearly on a set, and that was 100% definitely a green screen. It’s usually reserved for movies made 20-30 years ago, but I could honestly tell they weren’t in the ocean at all. We don’t normally get green screens that bad anymore. I assume this, because the final scene is so poorly green screened that I could actually tell. I think somewhere along the way, they ran out of money while making Point Break.
