Movie Reviews of Road House
Movie Review: I love this movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the greatest movie I own. It has everything you could ever want in it. Fighting, boozing, strippers, blowed up buildings and a monster truck. There is also a character who looks like the poor-man's Patrick Duffy and he gets his throat ripped out by a sweaty Patrick Swayze. The best part about this movie is that it makes no logical sense and you will understand that when you watch it. And you should watch it.Movie Review: Good movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Ptrick swayze shown in this movie he had enough talent to look like a very tough man, puting order where there's disorder and chaos. A weak plot for the movie for but with good acting a dn good direction, and not a bad script. This is a real "must-have" movie, for those who like action, trhiller and plenty of pretty women. And remember the MPS.Movie Review: Incredibly bad, but somewhat redeemable
Summary: 2 Stars
Yes, you read that title right. From the moment Road House opens, you know that you are watching not only one of the worst action movies ever made, but one of the most unbelieveable and incredibly mind numbing movies ever made as well. Yet, there's something about it all that makes it a guilty pleasure for those who use the term "suspension of disbelief" rather loosely. Patrick Swayze (and he wonders why his career went downhill) plays the new bouncer in town who runs a foul of the local crime boss (Ben Gazzara). For the story, that's pretty much it, along with Kelly Lynch in a role where she seems to be the only person who isn't brain dead, and poor Sam Elliot as Swayze's old friend who drops by to help kick some redneck butt. Incredibly unbelieveable in the ultimate sense of the term, Road House is one of those movies that have to be seen to see just how bad it really is, but for pure escapists only, it can be a bit of a guilty pleasure.Movie Review: Please come clean up my local bar!
Summary: 4 Stars
Who can resist a movie with action, one-liners, and most of all Sam Elliott and Patrick Swayze?
I don't know a person that has seen it and hated it, but some did dislike certain things about it. You have to appreciate the 80's action to appreciate the movie, which I do.
And who can resist the loveable character Red? Who didn't cheer and jump around like you're playing nintendo in the last fight scene. Well I did:)
Movie Review: Goot B action movie
Summary: 4 Stars
This is one of those movies that comes on TBS/TNT and
several other basic channels fairly often. Why? Well,
it's one of those cheesy movies that you like to watch
when you simply want a simple action movie to watch on
a late night. Yes, this has alot of cheesy one liners
and some of the stuff you have to look past like Daltons
insane cash demands. As you know, this is supposed to
be a small town. Just as another reviewer said that for
a small town alot of people in it seem to be really
rich.
I love the bar scenes and there is no doubt The Jeff
Healey Band gives the bar scenes a big boost. The band
is very good and this bar is something I could see me
at sometimes. And The band makes me give this movie
the 4th star instead of three. Most of the characters
played there parts well... But I didn't think Kelly
Lynch added very much. In fact, I was done tired of
her by the scene where the monster truck ran over
the cars.
Another thing I didn't like is the movies attempt to
sound witty but only sound cheesy. It's almost like
the movie makers wanted to see the bad guys as more
than average dumb like thugs. Sadly, it failed.
However, the action was really good and the movie got
better with the addition of Sam even though he started
out quick and toward the end of the movie he started to
not matter very much. I liked the fight with Jimmy by
the lake and pulling guys throats out isn't something
typically done in this type of flicks.
Pros:
-The Jeff Healey Band
-Good Brawling
-Decent action
Cons:
-Predictable ending
-Cheesy one Liners
-Drags here and there
