Funny / Point Break (1991)

Go To

  • Angelo sees some surfing Mooks attack Johnny, so he races down to stop them. Of course, what he doesn't know is Bodhi has joined in and helped Johnny win the fight. As Bodhi and Johnny start walking away, Angelo finally comes up to them...and, to avoid blowing Johnny's cover, makes up a story about some kids who have stolen his car stereo.
    • Bodhi's reaction after Johnny points Angelo in the direction of the Mooks as someone to "check out" to find the stereo is a very bemused "you like to start shit, don't you?" Which is funny because, to Bodhi's perspective, Johnny just sic'ed a stranger on to some already pissed off aggressive guys who won't be happy to have a random guy accusing them of stereo theft.
  • Before the car chase with the Ex-Presidents, Angelo sends Johnny to pick up lunch at a sandwich shop. As he's ordering, the thieves pull up to the bank across the street, and he doesn't notice until they're driving away.
  • When Roach boasts about how surfing is even better than sex, Tyler replies, "Sounds like you're not doing it right, Roach."
  • Johnny's fight with Angelo. Gary Busey's hammy performance is what sells it.
