Directed by Doug Liman, the movie “Road House” was released earlier last month. This movie is watchable on Amazon Prime.
This movie is about an ex-UFC fighter named Elwood Dalton most known as Dalton takes on a new job as a bouncer in the Glass Keys. Dalton has past trauma from an accident that happened while being in a UFC fight. This movie is based on “Road House” released in 1989.
Dalton is shown as a hidden guy who doesn’t want to be seen in public. However, he meets a woman named Frankie who offers him a job as a bouncer at her bar called “Road House”. Dalton had a lot of second thoughts about the job and then he decided to take the job.
He will eventually arrive at Glass Keys and encounter the owners of a bookstore. A girl named Charlie and her dad Stephen. Dalton will become friends with this family because of the kindness they showed him.
The first night Dalton was working at his new job he got to work on trying to stop a group of men from trashing the bar. However, this group of guys will cause a lot of trouble for Dalton. The boss of the group of guys is sending men to destroy the roadhouse to be able to build his new resort for rich people to come and admire the amazing view that Glass Keys offers.
They will try everything in their power to try to scare Dalton from staying in Glass Keys and stop him from ruining their plan. Throughout the movie, they will try any possible way to get him scared and run away.
“RoadHouse” is worth giving a watch. This movie has a lot of action and humor. Dalton changes a lot from the beginning and at the end of the story. He seems nice and a cool person who is very quiet. However, towards the end of the movie, they show his angry side and it seems he is completely different.
One thing I liked was the villain character of Knox. He was a helper in trying to get Dalton to leave town. Knox’s character was to act like a crazy and buff fighter who wasn’t scared of anything. It’s funny because the actor is Conor McGregor. He is a UFC fighter in real life and he acts similarly when it comes to his fights.
I would rate this movie a 4.5 out of 5. I would recommend this movie to anyone interested in action movies and who likes fighting scenes.
