Critics Consensus

Road House updates a cult classic for a new generation, happily replicating the original's emphasis on cheesy brawn over narrative brains.

Audience Says

Road House can sometimes be so bad it's good, but more often, the uneven acting and ridiculous story are just disappointing.

In spite of otherwise flat-looking film-making, the action choreography of Road House 2.0 is thoroughly enjoyable.

Rated: 3/5

The gonzo magic of the 1989 original is gone, but there’s enough bone-breaking action here to satisfy B-movie aficionados.

Rated: 3/4

Time Out

The combination of Gyllenhaal’s easy charm, some Florida sunshine and at least one fight scene for the ages make this Road House worth stopping by. Just try to grab a seat in a quiet corner.

Film Feeder

Road House is an entertaining action remake of the 1989 original, which replicates that film’s dumb and over-the-top spirit with extra brawn that doesn’t make it smarter, but keeps it at a consistently mindless piece of trash that’s fun to watch.

Rated: 3/5

Houston Press

Brandt clearly has access to money and his old man owns the cops, so plant some drugs or other incriminating evidence in Frankie's office. Do that, and a mostly naked Conor MacGregor doesn't even need to get involved.

Rated: 3/5

We Live Entertainment

Clocking in at just shy of two hours, it’s at its best when it leans into the comedy of its narrative and stops short of aiming to beat all the bad guys, and a few good guys along with them, to a bloody pulp.

Rated: 6/10

So good! Fun, kinda cheesy and perfect. Get some anger out through those fight scenes. Connor McGregor had to have a blast playing that part.

The original is a classic. This one isn't. The script is thin and cliche. The fight scenes are ok but this guy was supposed to be an MMA fighter but little more than a whole lot of punches are used and there are a lot of times where one guy just stands there and lets the other one punch him. Pretty lame and boring. The ending also leaves the story open for a sequel which makes the movie even less satisfying.

This was an odd film, a film that on paper should be terrible but then actually turns out pretty decent right up until Conor McGregor shows up then it all turns to hell with every single minute he's on screen. The entire cast actually play their roles very well with the one very clear hold out. The plot has very little originality but it's pulled off reasonably well. The potential for this movie had it not had The Notorious One anywhere near it is clear for all to see, a real shame. This does also feature soem of the most ridiculous stunts seen outside of a Fast and Furious movie, so if that's for you then great, if not be warned!
