DVD Review: It's last call... For action!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is Patrick Swayze at his best. This movie provides action, drama, tight sweatpants and great hairdos. What else can you ask for? He carries around his medical records to "save time" and they include a diagram of his body indicating all of his previous injuries. That is precisely why this movie kicks so much ass, and he repeatedly kicks people in the ass. Why don't you already own this? Why are you still reading? Buy it! Now! This review is making me want to watch it again.
DVD Review: Special features!, Sure! But only on the DVD!
Summary: 3 Stars
The awesome commentary tracks they recorded for this special release were sadly NOT on the Blu-Ray version of the film. If you want any of the good stuff you're stuck with the included DVD. So if you're in it for the special features and not just a high def picture, save a couple bucks and get the DVD only version.DVD Review: Road House
Summary: 5 Stars
A cool-headed bouncer (with an NYU philosphy degree and a gift for martial arts) is hired to calm an extra-rowdy midwestern tavern. Along the way he falls in love with a beautiful doctor, and runs up against the local kingpin. Patrick Swayze is very good in this. It has a lot of good fight scenes and a good plot. An 80's classic.
DVD Review: Amazing movie
Summary: 5 Stars
So glad to have this in my collection,my favorite Patrick Swayze movie,its fun to watch he will be truly missed.
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
