Road House (2024)
5/10
Best Jake, but the rest is so-so
31 March 2024
Actually Jake was a positive and despite the comments so were the devil crew (Conor Mcgregor included). I just felt the road house crew was too lame (including the "owner"). I have seen her before but she and the cops lacked the energy of a troubled owner or a bought cop, and as Jake was playing a troubled man, it left it to the devil crew (Ben and family). Thankfully the son of the devils had a pompous flair that was on a par with the original Road House bad guy (Ben Gazarra) - maybe that was a tip of the cap to Gazarra by naming the guy "Ben".

The fight scenes were good, Jake, usually playing someone lame without charisma -really did a 180 playing someone lame with charisma, a body to match, and a devil-doesn't care attitude.

All in all, it was a good retread.
