50 Greatest Action Movies Of All Time

12. Point Break (1991)

Crank 2
20th Century Fox

A stylish mix of action movie, police procedural, heist thriller and extreme sports movie, Point Break has remained as an enduring cult favorite for almost 25 years, thanks to Kathryn Bigelow's stylish direction and some great action beats.

Of course, the real hook is the relationship between Keanu Reeve's young, dumb and full of... you know... Johnny Utah, and Patrick Swayze's charismatic Bodhi, which delivered one of cinema's all-time great bromances decades before it was even a word.

I don't do social media, so like or follow me in person but please maintain a safe distance or the authorities will be notified. Don't snap me though, I'll probably break. I was once labelled a misogynist on this very site in a twenty paragraph-long rant for daring to speak ill of the Twilight franchise. I stand by what I said, it's crap.
