From Amazon.co.uk

Road House is one of those movies that helped usher out the era of action films that had feasible plot lines (and also helped reverse the direction of Patrick Swayze's career arc). Swayze stars as Dalton: a handsome, existential bouncer who owns both a degree in philosophy and a Mercedes and that's perhaps the most believable aspect of the whole movie. Dalton runs afoul of Wesley (Ben Gazzara), the meanest SOB round these parts, by taking up with his former girlfriend, Doc (Kelly Lynch)--the only woman in town with an IQ approaching double digits, even if she had unfathomably hooked up with such a lowlife. Swayze had complained about being typecast as beefcake when this was made, but that didn't stop him from revealing as much skin as possible. It's so insulting to its audience that it's nice to be able to turn the tables and laugh at the filmmakers.--David Kronke, Amazon.com

5.0 out of 5 starsA blast of an action movie
By chaos_preacher on 14 July 2012
Format: DVD
This is what an action movie should be like. Great characters, awesome music, fun and gritty action scenes, a likeable protagonist and an excellent villain. I've always enjoyed Road House. It's just a great movie to enjoy again and again. The film is nearly 2 hours but it doesn't feel like it. The plot isn't very complex but it works for this kind of movie. Patrick Swayze plays a bouncer who is sent to a place called the Double Deuce to clean it up but learns of the town villain Brad Wesley who has the town under his control and as the movie goes on, becomes even more sinister and deadly. You actually really dislike the antagonist which is great and done well. Ben Gazzara does an excellent job as the town's feared guardian and tormenter and when Dalton (Swayze) gets his revenge for things I cannot reveal it's exciting.

The music is superb, there are a range of different songs but a majority of them are from The Jeff Healey band, some which are covers (IMO much better than the originals.) The music fits the movie and is mainly rock/blues.

There is a lot of action in this movie to satisfy fans, plus a lot of brutal fighting. There is also a mix of comedy and emotion. I can't figure out why this movie did poorly at the time but at least there are many fans who appreciate it for what it is.

Overall this movie isn't complex or deep but it's an exciting action packed rollercoaster packed with awesome music. A Patrick Swayze classic that will always be enjoyed.

5.0 out of 5 starsI thought you'd be bigger
By Mr Lex Easthope on 20 Feb. 2001
Format: VHS Tape
This a film that as its ups and downs but overall this is one of patrick swayze's better films.Dalton is the best bouncer in the business and he is asked to clean up the mess by Wesley and his goons.1 by 1 he knocks of wesley's goons and then gets ready for the final showdown.Along the way he falls in love with Wesley's ex who is a doctor at the local hospital.Then he asks his old pal for help and things then go from bad to worse.There is an execellent sound track and the film has good support from Jeff healey who plays Cody who used to sing at daltons old club. He shows why he is canada's number one musical export.The film is not as violent that it is made out to be there are some good fight scences in it.This is a film that is overall very good and i would recommed anyone to buy it.The choice is yours.

5.0 out of 5 starsBest US film of the era
By Amazon Customer on 8 Aug. 2003
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
You have to love this film. Genius 80's cheese. The script ain't bad, the acting is reasonable and the fight scenes were choreographed by Benny The Jet, who kickboxers will know as a bit of a hero. Oh and it helps to be drunk to truly appreciate it.

4.0 out of 5 starsRoad House Region A Blu ray with instructions on how to play this on a UK Panasonic Blu ray player
By Mr. E. A. Williamson on 26 Feb. 2015
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
Rowdy Herrington's cult 1980s action favourite Road House arrives to Blu ray as an American exclusive. At the time of writing there are no planned releases for this title in any other territory. Unfortunatly the MGM/Fox Blu ray is region A locked meaning you will need a multi region player to view this. As is the case with a few of these so called 'locked Blu ray discs, owners of Panasonic decks could bypass the region coding of this disc with a simple remote control fix. First load up the disc. Whilst the player is reading the disc press the 'functions' button on the remote. Next the wrong region screen will pop up saying that you are using a Blu ray intended for playback in a different region. This screen will quickly disappear and take you back to the Panasonic home screen but with the functions menu highlighted. Next press '1', the screen will go blank and the disc will load to the start of the movie. On certain occasions you may need to press the 'ok' button after '1'. For the record I'm using a Uk region B Panasonic BD80 with the latest firmware installed. As far as I know this trick only works on Panasonic equipment and I am also unsure as to which models are compatible so try at your own risk.
Road house plays almost like a modern day western so much so that many character names within the movie all originate from the Western genre. Patrick Swayze stars as Dalton, a head bouncer or more precisely cooler who thanks to his ability to control a crowd and as he puts it "take out the trash" commands a high price and option to pick and choose his own gigs. Dalton's reputation as "the best damn cooler in the business" brings him to the attention of Tilghman(Kevin Tighe) the owner of The Double Deuce, a rundown sleeze pit of a bar in Nowheresville Kansas.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsRoadhouse
By Rosalie Radin on 31 Oct. 2009
Format: DVD
Now every time that I read a review on this film it gets a good old slagging off - but I love it. Its got some great humour in it, a great soundtrack and Patrick rocks. Dalton is hard as nails but has that gentle sensitive side that Patrick Swayze plays really well. He says in his book that there is a guilty pleasure in liking Roadhouse and I think that that's true because it got such cutting reviews which the film does not deserve. I hate action films but I love this. Watch and enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 starsBest Worst Film Of The Year (1989)
By Philoctetes TOP 1000 REVIEWER on 11 Jun. 2008
Format: DVD
Nothing special to add to all the other ambivalent encomia already shovelled onto this mess of a film. Lots of good ingredients that add up to nothing but unintended laughs.

Fast cars, explosions, naked chicks for the guys, naked Swayze for the girls (and for Swayze himself), and of course, superb fight sequences. The story and the total absence of police are simply ludicrous.

Funny thing is, when Dalton's bouncer-mentor turns up to help, about halfway through the movie, he's so much cooler than Dalton you want to skip the plot and just tag along with him. An opportunity wasted.

Definitely one to put with other films you reckon are good because they're bad.
