The action classic notably stars Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze.

The Big Picture Little hand says it's time to rock-and-roll – the 1991 action classic Point Break is coming to 4K UHD and Blu-ray. Fans will be able to watch Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze face off in high-def this December. Shout Factory is releasing Kathryn Bigelow's epic crime drama as part of its Shout Selects line, which presents the "cream of the crop" of their extensive DVD offerings.

The set can be pre-ordered now on Shout Factory's website, and will be released on December 5. Those ordering from their website will also receive an exclusive 18" by 24" reproduction of the film's original theatrical poster. The film joins another Bigelow actioner, Blue Steel, on Shout Factory's 4K release docket; it will be available in November.

Reeves stars as ex-college football star Johnny Utah, who has become an FBI agent and is put on the tail of a gang of bank robbers known as the "Ex-Presidents", due to their distinctive rubber Commander in Chief masks. Utah eventually determines that the thieves are all surfers, and infiltrates their gang, where he is befriended by their charismatic leader Bodhi . Soon, he has to choose between friendship and duty – with deadly consequences.

The Legacy of 'Point Break' Point Break was then remade in 2015, with Édgar Ramírez, Luke Bracey, Ray Winstone, and Teresa Palmer, only to disappoint with critics and moviegoers; in his review, Collider's Tommy Cook described it as "a muddled hodgepodge of nostalgic markers".

Shout Factory's Point Break 4K set will be released on December 5, and can be pre-ordered her. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
