In 1991, a movie came out on wide screens,which has become a landmark for actors and a cult for the audience. Directed by Catherine Bigelow presented the thriller, the storyline of which many critics seemed very weak, and the film did not foreshadow a huge success.
However, the tape "On the crest of a wave", the actors and roles forwhich Katherine carefully selected, took her place in the top grossing pictures of the world thanks to the special atmosphere and the amazing game of C. Reeves and P. Swayze.
It was not just a fighter with a set of stunt tricks. The two main characters, opposing each other, created a psychological drama, in the center of which stood their relationship.
FBI worker Johnny Utah is a young man withgood sports training. He has been introduced into a gang of bank robbing by more than three years of extreme surfers to organize their capture. He meets Bodhi - the leader of a criminal group with his philosophy of life.
At some point, Reeves’s hero loses touch withreality, confusing the law with its absence. There comes that very moment after which the character’s fate changes dramatically. He reveals the crime, but understands that life will never be the same.
This is a summary of the tape "On the crest of a wave."The actors, whose photos appeared in all the magazines, gained not only immense popularity, but also the statuses of sex symbols of Hollywood and the most desirable men.
Patrick Swayze, who played Bodhi, said thathis insurance company did not give permission to shoot, fearing for his life. He learned to surf, landing painfully on coral reefs, and even said goodbye to life, falling on giant waves.
He was echoed by Keanu, remembering with laughter how heHe received a heavy board on the head on the first day of training in extreme sports for the role in the action movie “On the crest of a wave”. The actors themselves did not perform all the tricks, the most difficult elements fell to the lot of their doubles. “When you see me falling from the board, know that this is exactly me. This was the best for me, ”Reeves laughed at himself.
В 2008 году было решено повторить кассовый успех cult film, and the sponsoring company buys out all the rights to the future picture. However, only five years later, the project was launched, and Erickson Kor, who worked as an operator of the not less well-known Forsage fighter, stood at the helm. The viewer became interested in the statement that this would be the first film produced in the world of professional extreme sports.
Keanu Riavz immediately cut off all assumptionsregarding his role in the film: “I do not want to participate in it. But if they find a way to make a good continuation of the film, let God bless them. ” And he added that after all some pictures should not have remakes.
The main actors of the film "On the crest of a wave" (2015) -E. Ramirez and L. Bracy - conveyed the feelings of two people, who are becoming closer and closer each day, but their fates clearly diverge along different roads.
The director made a new movie, making real generalists out of surfers, which are subject to all extreme sports. Actors lived in tent camps and visited 11 countries of the world.
It was filmed a lot of dangerous scenes on highlevel, which never dreamed of the original source. Critics who responded harshly to the tape wrote that on the excellent game of Reeves and Swayze, the first part “On the crest of a wave” was holding up. Actors continue to take exciting risk-taking stunts.
However, the spectacular picture played a bad role, opening the void of content and lack of sincerity, which ensured the incredible success of Katherine's tape.
Kor focused on the limitless extreme and bright picture, forgetting to draw the characters of the characters "On the crest of a wave." Actors and their game caused a lot of controversy not only among critics, but also ordinary viewers.
Luke Bracey as Utah Agent Looksunconvincing. He does not have a sports figure and is not at all like an adrenaline lover. But the negative hero caused a lot more emotion and spectator love.
Edgar Ramirez knew by heart an action movie involvingReeves and Swayze and always dreamed of acting in something like that. When he was offered the role of Bodhi, the actor was just happy. He understood the nature of the stubborn rebel who risked his life.
Declared budget of $ 100 million newaction movie "On the crest of a wave", whose actors perfectly coped with the stunts, it justifies itself. Many scenes were filmed without the use of computer graphics, and thrill lovers will like this tape.
Но в сравнении с глубокой картиной Бигелоу, не trying to make their heroes better than they really are, the remake loses. Even 25 years later, the tape about sincere relationships looks in one breath, but if the viewer wants to return to the continuation of the story of the Utah agent after the same time, only time will tell.
