I Watch Films: Road House

Road House

Patrick Swayze is Dalton, the second best bouncer in the business. He’s hired to clean up a night club in Jasper, Missouri. When he gets there it’s rough but nothing he can’t handle.

It turns out that the town is run by Brad Wesley. He seems to be a regular crooked rich arsehole, but slowly is revealed as running a protection racket before descending into full blown cruelty and villainy for no good reason. The fights escalate, leading to Dalton killing a man in front of his love interest.

Lots of brawling action and a few other stunts, the monster truck that appears in several scenes paying off in a magnificent scene of villainy.

Watch This: A fairly silly 80s action film with a few good fight scenes
Don’t Watch This: Bar fights are uninteresting
