Peter Iliff Helming Point Break 2
Source: Variety
May 15, 2007

Peter Iliff (Patriot Games) will write and direct Point Break 2, a 20 years later sequel to the surfing crime thriller that he co-wrote in 1987 and was a hit for Largo Entertainment in 1991.

Variety says the new film will be set in Southeast Asia and uncover the fate of the surfers' leader Bodhi who was supposedly killed by a giant wave. The action follows a surfer-turned-SEAL on the trail of a criminal gang. Locations being scouted include Indonesia and Singapore.

The film is being set up by Singapore-Australian talent management and production firm RGM Entertainment as a $20 million-$30 million independent production.

Production schedule sees filming starting by the end of current year with delivery for late 2008. RGM's CEO Devesh Chetty said casting will include English-language and Asian male leads and Asian female love interest.

I loved Point Break.

It was soo campy....but I loved it. Something I would watch every year or so when I'm tired and just feel like crashing on the couch.

As for a sequel, if Swayze aint in it...no point.

Didn't think much of the original, so will not be rushing to see the second movie, but will be nice to see the Singapore locations.

Not even an cult classic.

I would say one of those movies where you watch when your extremely bored, but not ready to go to bed and you happen to catch it on TBS, or some other guy network station.

Anthony Keidis from the Red Hot Chili Peppers was the bomb in Point Break! He was the guy who gets his foot blown off by a shot gun in the house they raid.

Bohdi or bust. Although Swayze is looking kind of haggard lately.

I cant.

But when people talk about movies and great ones, how many times have you seen anybody even mention Point Break in those discussions, let alone mention it in terms of being cult classics.

It's certainly classic camp. The kind of movie you know isn't great, but can't stop watching anyway. I kind of hate Lori Petty, but Swayze... ohhhhh Swayze.

Even then I thought Lori Petty was kinda ugly for a lead romantic interest. As for the classic part I agree that it really isnt but 7-10 is on TBS I cant stop watching it.
