This movie is probably where most people saw Keanu Reeves in an adult role for the first time. Pitted against the Late Patrick Swayze as an FBI agent and Bank Robber (respectively) the movie is fairly fast paced, but the slow parts are definitely slow. It was definitely an unique storyline at the time, and suspense threads through the movie like subtle smoke. Good 90's movie.

Has Peter Travers ever given ANY movie a positive comment? I don't think so. He is probably a good example of a "movie critic" who has no talent so becomes a bully but he calls himself a "critic". Pathetic.

I rember watching this as a young kid and I still like seeing it now. The new Point Break remake that came out in 2015 is total garbage compared to this film.
