Pitch Meeting - Season 4 Episode 49

Keanu Reeves has been killing it at the box office in recent years (and possibly in the video game world too if Cyberpunk 2077 stops glitching.) With franchises like The Matrix and John Wick under his belt, Reeves is an absolute action star. But thirty years ago, he was still trying to prove himself as a viable lead for those kinds of movies. And Point Break did just that! Point Break definitely does raise some questions though. Like why is the famous football star with a bad knee Johnny Utah chosen to go undercover, while ALSO using his real name? What were the odds of the very first person he encountered on the beach having a direct connection to the bank robbers he’s looking for? How many terrible decisions can Utah make in a single movie? Why are we suddenly skydiving?
