DVD Reviews of Road House

DVD Review: All you need to know about "Road House" is included in the following.
Summary: 5 Stars

This flick has hot babes (especially Kelly Lynch as a hot blonde doctor), total butt kicking action, Patrick Swayze's cheesy one liners, ninja bouncing moves, and mullet..should I continue?

Okay then.

Dalton is supposively THE best bouncer in the business. He killed a dude 'cuz the lady friend he was bangin' never told him that she was married, he tears out a guy's throat with his bare hands, he's "nice..until it's time not to be nice", he doesn't give a crap when his car(s) get their butts kicked (and he laughs the mishaps off like they never happened), he's taught himself that pain doesn't hurt, he carries around his medical chart because it's easier on him, he's stitched his own wounds before, he gets to bang a hot blonde doctor at the end of the day, and he takes out the bad guy of the town and his cronies without the use of any weapons, excluding his own fists and kicks, within a two hour running time..every time.

This movie is a total action-adventure epic. You should own the DVD already.

DVD Review: Patrick Swayze, he'll break your heart, then he'll break your face !!
Summary: 4 Stars

Road House and Steel Dawn were his best movies !!!! Yea Ghost was good, but too mushy.

DVD Review: The Kevin Smith/Scott Mosier commentary alone worth the $
Summary: 5 Stars

I've seen this movie about a billion times. My VHS copy wore out so I popped for this new edition. Good God, the commentary by Smith/Mosier is hysterical. By itself, it is worth the price. I haven't laughed that hard in a very long time.

By the way, why IS that background guy dancing without his shirt in all the bar scenes?

DVD Review: Road House Patrick Swayze.
Summary: 5 Stars

The Movie Road House is a gutsey action movie and not for the few who don't like true action. Patrick Swayze and Sam Elliott are just great, sure cleaned up The Double Deuce and recomend this DVD. Malcolm Australia.

DVD Review: You play pretty good for a blind white boy
Summary: 4 Stars

Booze, boobs, and beatdowns. Oh yeah, it's the 80's high-octane smash-mouth butt-kickin sex-romp. One of the best bad movies ever made.

Patrick Swayze's coolest flick ever, no dancing but plenty of dirt. He plays the ultimate tough guy named Dalton, a bouncer whose brawling skills are pretty much legendary. He gets hired on at a nasty little drinking establishment in order to "clean the place up". Believe me, it needs alot of work.

This is a total guys flick--lots of nudity, bloody fistfights, cheesy dialogue, and absurd incidents. Having sex during your break at work--what manly man hasn't dreamed of that?
Besides the erotic overload, this movie is also gizzing with violent action and redneck humor. The acting isn't great, but it's not porno-grade either. Way too cool bros, pick this up pronto!

Description of Road House

Patrick Swayze stars in this sexy, "violent tough-guy thriller" (Fort Worth Star-Telegram) from the producer of Die Hard and The Matrix. Co-starring Ben Gazzara (The Thomas Crown Affair), Kelly Lynch (Charlie's Angels) and Sam Elliott (We Were Soldiers), Road House delivers no-holds-barred action that pushes the envelope for high-octane thrills! Swayze is Dalton, a legendary bouncer who comes to Jasper, Missouri, for a special purpose: to restore order at the notorious Double Deuce bar. In one spectacular fight after another, Dalton rids the bar of thugs and henchmen. But when he runs afoul of a ruthless crime boss (Gazzara) who controls the town, the stage is set for a blistering showdown that'll leave only one man standing!
One of those movies that helped usher out the era of action films that had plots that made any sense (and also helped reverse the direction of Patrick Swayze's career arc), Road House concerns a handsome, existential bouncer in a rinky-dink honky-tonk who owns both a degree in philosophy and a Mercedes. And that's perhaps the most believable aspect of the whole movie. Swayze stars as Dalton, "the best bouncer in the business," who runs afoul of Wesley (Ben Gazzara), the meanest SOB round these parts, by taking up with his former girlfriend, Doc (Kelly Lynch)--the only woman in town with an IQ approaching double digits, even if she had unfathomably hooked up with such a lowlife. Swayze had complained about being typecast as beefcake when this was made, but that didn't stop him from revealing as much skin as possible--even guys like him, as revealed in a luridly seedy scene in which one of Wesley's goons tells Dalton that he reminds him of the kind of boyfriend he had in prison (albeit in much saltier terms). It's so insulting to its audience that it's nice to be able to turn the tables and laugh at the filmmakers. --David Kronke
