An exciting movie that is a triumph for both Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves. This film has crime (armed bank robberies), danger (extreme surfing and also sky diving), and romance (Keanu Reeves and Lori Petty). Keanu Reeves plays the "blue plate special FBI agent"---and his partner is played by Gary Busey. Undercover work for Johnny Utah (Keanu Reeves)in the surfer community and falling in love with Tyler (Lori Petty) compromises this young hero's effort to be a straight-arrow FBI man. He finds it difficult to stay as detached as he needs to be to catch the bank robbers. The movie is rated "R" and for violence in some scenes it earned that rating! Keeps you on the edge of your chair! There are no dull moments. Wrings its audience out and hangs them to dry! Recommend this movie!
Keanu Reeves is Johnny Utah, a new FBI agent who goes undercover to expose a ring of bank robbers who have robbed 28 banks. They wear disguises like the ex-presidents. Utah's partner, Pappas (Gary Busey), thinks that they are a gang of surfers who are following the waves around the world by robbing banks. One group in particular is identified, led by a renegade surfer Bodhi (Patrick Swayze). Utah goes undercover as an adult trying to learn to surf. a former athlete, he sort of fits right in with Bodie and his group, and a bond develops. These guys are a bunch of adrenalin junkies who night surf, sky dive, and any number of other crazy things. This is a good action movie.
Great movie. Gotta love VHS and those 20th century fox collection trailers too. I prefer VHS over DVD and blu-ray.

I love this movie. It has action. Explosions, guns, fist fights, tension, chase scenes, even a foot chase, oh, yeah, and surfing. This movie is for the action lover, you don't have to care about surfing. John C. McGinley is enough reason to watch this film. Keanu and Patrick have chemistry and their relationship/battle is intricate and believable.
The best! Highly recommend
