Movie Reviews of Road House 2
Movie Review: Super Sequel - Schaech does Dalton's son Justice!
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved the original Roadhouse and did not think a sequel could keep my interest, but was I wrong! Johnathon Schaech really does Patrick Swayze justice! He was very believable as Dalton's son and was awesome in the fight scenes! This sequel was very entertaining and great fight scenes. Johnathon is sexy and has my vote! Summer sizzles with this DVD!Movie Review: Road House 2
Summary: 5 Stars
Full of action and excitment. The entire cast, although no big names are in the movie they all put on a great preformance. I would highly recommend this movie if you like action and excitment. They could have left Jake Busey out and replaced him with someone that knows how to act.Movie Review: loses the feel of the original but still good stuff
Summary: 4 Stars
Its a B movie, but its a well made B movie that entertains, though not quite as much as the first Road House. I expected no relation to the first Road House with this sequal, but there is. Jonathan Schaech plays a DEA agent, who is the son of Patrick Swayze's character from the first Road House. He takes over running the bar for his Uncle (Will Patton) who is in the hospital after getting the beat down from the movie bad guy, played by Jake Busey. The same "3 bar rules" are applied from the first movie. And as things progress, more and more becomes too much in common with the first Road House. I found that ok though, since most of the charcaters and action provided good entertainment for an hour and half.
One thing is for sure, the presence of Swayze is not felt at all in this film from Schaech, who semmed a bit bland. In fact, the whole movie is toned down from the first. But thats not to say there still isn't a good deal of action. Jake Busey, typical B movie actor, actually does a decent job of coming off as a decent villain, though he can seem like an over aged brat at times. One of the best treats is actor Richard Norton, playing the head boss. He is obviously showing signs of aging these days, but manages to still get in a good fight scene and pull of the villain role swiftly.
As for action, don't expect any crazy bar fights like the first Road House, but there are more one on one fights that are quite fun to watch. Schaech gets in a good fight with both Richard Norton and Jake Busey, both about the best scenes in the movie.
If you enjoyed Road House, this sequal is worth checking out. The similarities may be dissapointing, but you get more solid action to add to the fuel.
Movie Review: Unexpected Star Amongst Sequels
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie was filmed mostly in my hometown and so, I just had to buy it.. And I really wasn't expecting a lot, especially since this is a straight to DVD flick. But the movie was done very well. The acting was well done on most accounts, however, some of the cliche's or lines they used from the original Road House was a bit humorous...
The fight scenes were well done, though, could've been edited a little more in my opinion. The lead character in this did a very good job playing the role. Jake Busey was very good as well
Movie Review: Better than I imagined it would be
Summary: 4 Stars
Being a big fan of the original 'classic' bar brawl movie Roadhouse, I was not expecting much from the sequel. However I was pleasantly suprised. This was a good decent solid action flick with plenty of good music, good fights, good eye candy and above average acting from all concerned. Some nods to the original in this film, largely relating to Daltons son, played well by Johnathon Schaech. Jake Busey carrying the bad guy torch was also fun to watch.
