Road House

That is just one of the great one-liners.
You ever seen Road House 2? I have it on DVD but isn't as good as #1.

It stars Patrick Swayze it's from 1989. He plays an Kung-Fu bouncer and due to his repetation gets called in to the Double Deuce bar to clean it up.
But the rich money man Brad Wesley doesn't like it.
Unfortunately for him, Dalton is around.


Without spoiling it.
 
I saw Jeff Healey (blind blues guitarist - plays Cody in the film) live a couple of years ago. Everyone in the crowd was shouting for "When The Night Comes Falling" (a song from Road House). But he wouldn't play it.
 
Road House is a terrible film.

Poorly directed, poorly written and poorly acted.

"The One With Patrick Swayze's Lame Attempt At Doing Kung Fu"

See the in-joke there?

It doesn't get any more embarrassing then that.

Watch Point Break instead.
 
"Opinions vary".

See the in-joke there?

Road House is a great film. Well directed, well written and well acted.

"The One With Dalton and Wade Garrett kicking the sh1t out of Brad's nasties when they try to stop the delivery guy bringing the booze."

It doesn't get any better than that.

Don't watch Point Break - it's crap. And it stars Canoe Reeves. This doesn't.
 
Having just looked through your top 100 I would beg to differ. Basically, you've raided every laRAB mag ever printed and copied their top 10 films thinking that that makes you look good, then thrown in a couple of eighties bratpacks (plus ET!!!!!) because that's what you used to watch on video during the school holidays. Still, each to their own. You are the Nick Frost character in Hot Fuzz - you know that don't you?
 
Road House isn't a classic, but nor do I regret going to see this. Even non-credit junkies should stick around for the end credits and the Jeff Healey Band's "When The Night Comes Falling" (and since said credits have constantly moving footage behind them practically up to the United Artists logo, there's a good chance this movie's alongside Short Circuit and Flight of the Navigator in the Films Whose End Credits Are Left Intact Whenever They're On Terrestrial TV Club).
 
Strangely I am going to side with broadz here, but only because I never did like Point Break. It was a cheese fest of cliche's, driven by a bad script and half wooden acting on the part of Keano Reeves (he acted like he had just jumped out of Bill and Ted).

That is not to say that Roadhouse is any better, but of the two films I'd take Roadhouse home for a second viewing.
