Road House (2024)

[KCUnited]

It looks like the exact same story with some UFC angle

I shouldn't underestimate the Fast & Fury/MMA crowd so this will probably do well enough but how hard is it to come up with a new story and title around splosions and fighting

Seriously. Stinks like the Red Dawn remake.

The original was a fun, but extremely silly, movie. I seriously doubt that there is some hidden, layered bouncer subculture, but having never been a bouncer, I guess I wouldn't know. The "I thought you'd be taller" bit was amusing. Swayze sold it well, though, and Sam Elliott was great as always. It did kind of go off the rails when it turned into Rambo at the end.

I just checked Gyllenhaal's movies on IMDb. I can count on one hand the number of movies he's been in that I've seen and actually liked, and still have some fingers left over. Only October Sky stands out. And the mere thought of Donnie Darko still spins me into a rage.

No plans to watch this. Ever.
