The Reboot of Point Break is not a good movie. I knew the moment I heard about the Reboot happening that this was going to suck and it has nothing to do with me loving the Original Point Break (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/dvd's-blu-rays/point-break-(1991)/msg11976/#msg11976) with Keanu Reeves, Patrick Swayze and Gary Busey. The reason why the Reboot sucks is EVERYTHING. The actors were dull, boring and pretty bad at their chosen profession. Granted, the writing was weak and I felt bad that they had to say some pretty dumb lines that just sounded so stupid. But that's not my biggest issue here. For a movie that gets made in this day and age, they have to up their game as for as the 'Wow' factor and they can't even get that right. The big stunt pieces as far as anything relating to Extreme Sports just came across as very underwhelming. I've seen better on TV and YouTube. Overall, the movie was everything I knew it was going to be and it was a struggle just to finish the movie. Skip this turd. FYI, when a Reboot happens, more often than not, that means cameos from the Original. Only two show up and it's blink or you'll miss them. James Le Gros and Bojesse Christopher show up as FBI agents. Yeah, you probably don't know or have ever heard of their names before.

Wasn't this movie also delayed at one point?  It's been a while (I can't even believe how long ago 2015 was!) so I don't really remember, but yeah, the trailer didn't do anything for me.
