So…you’re doing a Fast
& The Furious retrospective and you’re starting with Point Break?
Of course I am. The genesis
of the first film in the Fast & The
Furious franchise begins here. The
outline and overall narrative of Point
Break is almost beat for beat repeated in The Fast & The Furious.
You’re basically trading in surf boards for street racing cars. Watching them back to back, its even more
apparent.
