On an objective scale, this film is pretty cheesy. It's a direct ripoff of Point Break. The acting from Walker and a few others is pretty terrible. Every scene is unrealistic...
But why do we watch movies? We watch because we enjoy them. And I can't help but enjoy this film.
It almost feels like it's in the same world as Training Day. Not as dark (and certainly not nearly as good as Training Day). But it captures LA very well. And nostalgia runs through this film like crazy. Makes me sad to know those days are over. And even sadder to know that Walker is gone.
