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

Newsday

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.

Rated: 3/5

Book & Film Globe

As with many movies where a paper-thin premise quickly collapses by the end—and just like the 1989 Road House itself—this new Road House gets more joyously absurd as it goes along.

Rated: 4/5

The Movie Blog

Look, this movie isn’t trying to win Oscars. It’s here to entertain you with a healthy dose of action, humor, and Florida weirdness. If you’re looking for a film with a plot tighter than a boa constrictor’s grip, this might not be it.

Rated: 8/10

Rough Draft Atlanta

It’s not perfect, or really even great, by any means, but it does fit comfortably into the oeuvre of the trashy, Florida cinema canon, with all the sweaty, goofy action that entails.

I will say one of the best slap/opening fight scenes since Power Rangers if I’m being honest

Road House (2024) It's a soulless film with lazy direction. I confess I haven't watched the original, but I'm sure it's much better than this one. Your lazy script fails to make the film act too slow. Jake looks like he's smiling every day lol.

Not the best in plot,but the action sequences were kick ass. Its a remake. Most remakes are not very good. This remake has better action sequences. Spoiler, I am glad that conner McGregor won in the end dude is a sick actor/fighter.

Sadly bad and far worse than the 1989 version. A shame, as with some very simple rewrites this could have easily been a decent B-movie. Instead, we ended up with a poorly executed junky and clunky UFC sponsored mess.

Road House struggles to decide what genre it wants to move into, swinging too often without being action enough, drama enough, thriller enough, etc. and with “off-the-wall” characters and moments of humour that end up being taken out of context, making it look more like an 80s TV series (but just like it, it allows for a couple of hours of unpretentious entertainment).
