Episode description
A young, upstart FBI agent infiltrates a tight-knit group of surfers who rob banks so they can afford a nomadic lifestyle of spiritual enlightenment. This is the actual plot of acclaimed filmmaker Kathryn Bigelow’s 1991 action thriller, “Point Break.” Is it ludicrous? Yes. Is it absurd? Certainly. However, this muscular entertainment became a highly quotable cult classic and the reasons are justifiable. Jason Zollan returns - with two meatball sandwiches - and joins Dennis to defend why this film hangs ten on everyone’s board. Back off Warchild, seriously.
