Non-Cannon ~ Episode 109 - Road House (1989)



You knew this one was coming eventually.

What can one say about Road House that hasn't been said over a hundred times by now? But since it has regained the reputation it has deserved since the grimdark age of the 2000s, it is worth talking about even now. Probably Patrick Swayze's best known role outside of Dirty Dancing and Ghost, 1989's Road House is the movie that should have made him an action icon. It's cool, it's tough, and it's fun, an outright blast to watch with something interesting always going on.

Whatever negative idea you might have of Road House will definitely melts away when you actually see it. There really isn't anything else like it out there, and there probably never will be again. Road House is a cult favorite for a very good reason.

Randy's Score: 3/5
