Road House is a huge success

Yet liars on DL were saying otherwise.

Has anyone seen it? I keep on seeing ads and didn't know what to think. I'm not opposed to it, but it's not something that I thought, "I must watch that."

I turned it off halfway through. I can only get second-hand embarrassment so many times before I turn something off.

That's a terrible photo of Jake. He is aging in a very strange way. I don't know what cosmetic procedures and/or steroids he's doing but he looks ugly.

R4 Well, I think it's fabulous.

I never watched the first one so I'm not likely to see the remake. But the trailer almost makes me want to see it. Jake is charming and I think real-life villain Conor McGregor is the bad guy, so if I were into violence, I'd enjoy seeing him get slapped around.

by Anonymousreply 7April 2, 2024 3:40 AM

He's always looked odd. To be honest I just want him to release his exercise routine, he built himself an impressive physique. I'd watch that for ... ok 20 minutes max.

by Anonymousreply 8April 2, 2024 4:05 AM

I watched the original and felt embarrassed for Patrick Swayze. I can't go through that again.

by Anonymousreply 9April 2, 2024 4:07 AM

Jake's face looks like that when he loses too much weight or works out a lot. Now maybe he did get a bit or work done on his eyes. But if you look at pictures of him f rom Night Crawler, he looked leaner in the face.

by Anonymousreply 10April 2, 2024 4:17 AM

His body looks weird in this. I know he did a super workout makeover put on a lot of muscle but something odd about it. Maybe he's too cut, does not look healthy. On the edge of being a tweeker.

R11 That’s when you are so shredded yet have 0% body fat. Thats discipline. He looks great.

Why am I not surprised that this is the kind of movie Defacto likes?

I believe one of the people Jake beats up is black.

Road House got 59% critics (184 review) and 54% audience (2500+) scores. So those are pretty average numbers.

Gyllenhaal doesn't look good. He lost too much weight or something.

Jake has ping ponged too often in weight and musculature. That's why his face and body are a bit off.

He looks terrible in the poster R15. Dried up and too hard looking.

by Anonymousreply 16April 2, 2024 5:29 AM

He fucked his looks around Nightcrawler almost a decade ago. Never really recovered the glow. He's not young anymore, anyway.

by Anonymousreply 21April 2, 2024 6:16 AM

I remember not liking the original when I saw it on cable years ago.

At some point I'll watch this out of curiosity, if only because I like Gyllenhaal.

But I'd rather see him in something original.

Still, if you're gonna remake a movie, it makes sense to redo one that isn't good if only because the odds are it'll be better than the first version.

I disagree. He looks like a cartoon character there, adorable as hell. And I don't usually find him all that attractive.

by Anonymousreply 24April 2, 2024 11:51 AM

I’ve never seen the first one but it looked like dumb lightweight 80s fun. This remake looks like it’s darker and more mean-spirited, just like society.

by Anonymousreply 25April 2, 2024 11:59 AM

You know Jake has made some shit movies lately. He made a science fiction movie with Ryan Reynolds that made me laugh out loud at all the wrong times. He made some absurd shit about a Pig, and now this? There's a couple more I can't think of, one involving an ambulance, where he's a criminal. But I think he makes this junk to get paid so he can go do more plays. Because he sure as shit doesn't care about movies. I think the last movie of his that I like was Nocturnal Animals the Tom Ford movie.

R28 You're definitely not black if you don't know who Trey Songz is R28. I used to think that the other posters were trolling you when they called you "Whitey" but now I'm convinced that you are indeed white, and doing a very bad impersonation of what you think a Black person would say. Like the whole "No Cap" thing you just did, which I'm positive you went over to Urban Dictionary to look up the latest slang, and yet you don't know who Trey Songz is? You trolls always give yourselves away eventually.

I watched it and thought it wasn't bad for what it is. Generally, I hate Jake Gyllenhaal but Conor McGregor's "angry leprechaun" act was very entertaining to me. That said, I loved the first one and quote it frequently.

Um, no (and where the fuck did you get that 2.3M stat at all?). Netflix uses a bullshit measurement metric: "minutes streamed." Amazon cuts the shit, and "Road House" is quite literally their most successful original movie EVER: 50 million global VIEWERS – not viewing MINUTES – in its first two weekends. Read for yourself below.

[quote]I can't think of a Jake Gyllenhaal movie that was a box office success. Someone please tell me?

The second Spider-Man movie with Tom Holland, though he obviously wasn't the lead, and since it's Tom & Zendaya it would've performed the same without him.

R65 I'm not R64, but I think it was Dirty Dancing Havana or something like that and the fact that I can't remember who was in it says everything. The original is a classic for so many reasons. The whole vacation in the Catskills and those resorts. The father being a Jewish doctor, the class stratifications among the help, etc.
