Point Break

The top director in this list is Stanley Kubrick, with four movies included. On a somewhat humorous note, they observe:

While Citizen Kane, The Searchers and Lawrence of Arabia don’t make the cut, Point Break, an action thriller with preposterous stunts, a threadbare plot and Patrick Swayze as a philosopher-surfer-bankrobber, does.
