Road House 2024

The writing is abysmal, the story telling is lacking and in a bad order (Start: why do people know who this guy is? He is entering fights using his reputation to scare his opponents, later: explains to us he was a UFC fighter, even later: the main character asks why everyone knows who he is. Huh?).

The band protected from glass bottles etc via chickenwire in 2024? Since covid every corner shop has had better protection than what that band was given. After the guy yells bar fight and people start randomly attacking each other you see people on the boats hanging from the roof...

The action was the only thing this had left going for it and what do we get blessed with? A ton of subpar CGI effects, impact zooms on pretty much every single punch and obvious no contact. Why didn't they just get some bareknuckle fighters to actually hit each other for the fight scenes? Wrestling is more believable than the hits in this movie.

Just another case of the remake being terrible.

Arturo Castro aka Moe, was a stand out character that actually made an impact to this movie. The bar owner, love interest, sheriff, bad guy all weakly scripted.
