In this adrenaline-fueled reimagining of the 80s cult classic, ex-UFC fighter Dalton (Jake Gyllenhaal) takes a job as a bouncer at a Florida Keys roadhouse, only to discover that this paradise is not all it seems.

Road House is open for business March 21 on primevideo.
 
Hmm the original is one of my favourite films and me and the missus watch it a couple of times a year, hope they do a decent job but wont be holding my breath
 
Pretty short run time for the entire movie for about 3 mins, but Ill prob watch it again when I'm bored some night.

Why does McGregor's voice seem like it's dubbed in like 90% of that trailer.

In my professional opinion, probably because it is. Doesn't bode well for the film.. or at least the scenes he's in.

I've never seen the original but looks kinda fun. Jakey boy does like a fight doesn't he.
 
That does look like a pale imitation of the original but might be worth a watch with a couple of beers.
The lack of an equivalent to Jeff Healey shows though. His music (and the Cruzados track) really make the original something special.

Fixed that for ya! :p
 
Liked the first movie, and Jake whatshisname is generally associated with pretty good stuff.

Just one problem, I can't stand McGregor, complete Hallion IMO and very little redeeming characteristics as far as I can determine.

Not really like most of his movies bar maybe Point Break and maybe Next of Kin.

I actually watched it again at the weekend after hearing about the remake and is still a great 80s action movie.

Kelly Lynch was utterly stunning back then and still looking good for 65! :eek:
 
I finished season 1 of Yellowstone the other week; now onto Season 2. I am really enjoying it. It completely flew under the radar when it was released for some reason.

Back drop is the largest ranch in the US, Kevin Costner is trying to prevent it being gobbled up by progress. He has a smoking hot cow girl of a daughter, which broadly makes it worth it on that alone.
