Christopher Drumme (vcn-09627) This is why I predict the American cinema and studio system will die. Nowadays it is all boring sequels and prequels and univirse films where every woman is an engineer and hates herself and is ashamed of her own body and so hides it. I am stopping my interest in (new) movies now.Road House has brawny men, nice women, bad women, thin women, available women, fighting, music and rowdiness. And Hollywood if.you.really.really.insist there is a female physician. Happy? And she voluntarily gets on her back on the first date (should give you heart attack right there).

Kingslaay Road House is an enjoyable and easy to understand film. Swayze does a great job as the calm and collected bouncer. The story and film is interesting enough and we always knew there would be a showdown between Dalton and Wesley. Decent, entertaining and perfect for relaxing. Some movies are enjoyable for the movie experience and nothing move. Its fun to sit back and watch fights and great showdowns.8/10

trickovicviktor I could watch this movie million times. Everything with it is just perfect, from music to fight scenes, best action movie Swayze ever did !

mattcordery A complex film, evocative of an American Society of yesteryear.A neo-nostalgic America where men settled their pent up emotional issues the proper way... drunkenly with their fists and sometimes broken bottles, and the only guy who seems to have a gun in literally the whole town for some reason is the unmistakable baddy.Road House was also challenging social gender constructs back before tumblr was even invented... A lady doctor? I too dream of a time when such a ridiculous thing is possible.There is even a subtle tongue in cheek head nod to the USA's skyrocketing healthcare disaster, whereby Dalton while undergoing treatment forgoes the use of local anesthetic, presumably due to its astronomical cost."Pain don't hurt." he nonsensically quips, obviously delirious and suffering from chronic traumatic encephalopathy due to his extensive history of brain trauma.Oh Swayze you magnificence fool, pain does hurt. It hurts alot... What have they done to you?Also there's that one scene where Daltons like bam and completely just rips that guys throat out with his bare hands, like in Rambo. So killer.Road House, is still as relevant and politically compelling as it was the day it was made. It's gritty, it's in your face and it's uncomfortable. (I lied about the lady doctor thing, the mere thought of it makes me uncomfortable.)Sure, its can be a little too intellectual for some; a little bit pretentious and some could argue, conceptually grandiose.But so what?Road house in essence is an artistic masterpiece, and as with all good art, it stakes you down and rakes your psyche over the hot coals of morality and dares you to ask the hard questions.Questions like: Whats the deal with society, am I right? Where are all the black people in this movie? Why havent I spent more time on a lake practising shirtless oiled up Tai Chi to enhance my street fighting abilities? Damn, why Swayze smoke so much?Road House is cinema at its finest, raw, edgy and technically magnificent, all factors which culminate in it's unarguable pride of place in the zeitgeist, and in the hearts of people who still have fake fights with imaginary baddies in the shower with super realistic noise effects and oscar worthy dialogue.12/5 80's boobs
