Movies are like Bands.
People come together--maybe they're not even the greatest musicians
individually--but together, something meshes and they make great music.
It takes more than great musicians to make a great band. Just so, some
movies, no matter how much money, talent, and horsepower is brought to
bear, just don't coalesce. Others, like Point Break, come together with
an ineffable "rightness" that defies any of the parts, logic, or
analysis. This is one of my favorite movies. Period. Everything "works."
This movie ROCKS.
