Horror fan 4 Not even close to his best work this movie has its moments. The best parts of the movie involve him and his mother. There's a lot of over the top acting by Patrick Swayze but it is worth a look. Tim Treakle Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/20/25 Full Review thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajudou a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/14/25 Full Review DanTheMan 2 Paced akin to that of a funeral, Tiger Warsaw sees the loveable Patrick Swayze trapped in time as a 70s greaser coming home in a melodramatic tale of reconciliation. There is no other reason to seek this out outside of Swayze, who broods sentimentality throughout the movie with an unshakeable boyish charm, he's just been saddled with a truly terrible screenplay. Drifting drearily along until, with about 10 minutes to go, it ends in a rushed wrap, as though somebody suddenly realized that time was up. It's mainly just a series of encounters with no oomph or style while Amin Q. Chaudhri's direction leaves most of the film completely incomprehensible with poorly lit and uncomfortably long shots dominating the runtime. If I can give it any form of praise outside of its main star, some of the songs on the soundtrack do slap but, other than that, Tiger Warsaw is a fraught movie that lurches between trauma and tearjerker. Driving towards a predictable conclusion, carrying the dubious message that matrimonial bliss and domestic harmony is the ultimate aspiration. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/26/24 Full Review Audience Member Maybe, not the best Swayze movie, but this is definitely his best dramatic role! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Man returns home after 15 years away to mend fences with his family after an incident tore them apart. Decent, not great. Have always thought Swayze was pretty good though. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Patrick Swayze plays a decent part, even if it is a little bit plain in places.
