Road House

Annoying and boring. Almost nothing happens, but when something does, it's cringe to the point it annoys you. The characters were annoying, and everything was mediorce. I expected it to be honest, but I think I expected a bit more. I haven't watched the original, but I know it has to be 10x better than this. The fights were cool, but it's a fighting movie, so it had to be somewhat good, and the locations were cool, but the characters ruined them. I forced my way through the first half just to see how bad Mcgregors acting was, and I tried to stay for the one sided laughs. Average at best.

It was powered with so many great fist fights, mixed with some cool jazz, background music and the dry comedy, and voila: an awesome Jack Gyllenhaal movie. But sadly, there are some drawbacks: 1. the dull and unmotivated side characters; 2. the cheap ending, it was disappointing.

got too much hype imo. yes the fight scenes are really well executed. but man, the cgi was not it, there were so many unnecessary cuts, story was all over the place. but i will say the camera work was great, and jake of course dominated. also conor was funny af haha. 7 / 10

I actually liked this movie

Cheesy in a bad, modern high budget way

Jake Gyllenhaal a enfin un rôle joyeux. Je saurais pas décrire comment j’admire cet acteur, dans absolument tous ses films je le trouve brillant.

Pour parler du film, le scénario est moyen, mais l’histoire s’enchaîne vraiment bien. Tout le délire dans la seconde moitié du film servait à rien mais les scènes de baston sont toutes stylées. On dirait vraiment un coin de paradis qui fait rêver et en même temps c’est l’enfer.

J’ai pas du tout aimé le personnage de Knox, à la McGregor, c’était nul c’était de trop, l’acteur surjouait chaque scènes. Donc heureusement de Jake sauve la mise.

Ça aurait été vraiment bien d’avoir plus de plans sur son passé, ce qu’il a traversé et comment.
