    I was just watching F&F ( #1 ) today and realized... this movie is so much like Point break ( the surfer movie ). I love both movies.

    1. They both are about adrenaline seeking guys who stick to a tight group, F&F with the "Team" and pointbreak with the "junkies"

    2. Both are about an undercover cop infiltrating the gang/team.

    3. In both movies, the undercover cop falls in love with a female very close to either of the groups

    4. In both movies, the gang/team rob people to support there lifestyle F&F ( Robbing truckers = $ for car parts) PB ( Robbing banks for surfing )

    5. In both movies the cop becomes really close with the teams

    6. In both movies, the undercover cop knows the truth that it HAS to be his gang/team that is robbing people, but cant face the truth and bring them in.

    Im sure there are way more likes and dislikes, anyone wanna help?

    Wow...great comparison. Never noticed either, but I loved "Point Break". You ever notice that it seems Keanu Reeves plays some quarterback from Ohio State in his movies? Point Break and The Replacements come to mind.

    Point break. Ted... I mean Keanu's classic line of bad acting "I, am an F B I AGENT!" Swayzee, Busey, RHCP's, Boss form Scrubs, way better than FF.

    When I was a broke ass college freshman I had no cable and a TV that only played VHS, Point Break was the only vid I owned. I wore that one out!

    I have no idea who those Dbags are in FF are and I'm not a fan of aftermarket exhaust on hondas.
