”Rowdy Herrington’s original Road House remains one of the finest of aged ‘80s cheeses. The greatest movie ever directed by someone named Rowdy, it is a film completely comfortable in its own absurdity. By contrast, the remake is uneasy, skittish even. Liman can’t settle on a consistent tone. It’s always either trying too hard or undercutting itself.” – North Shore Movies, 03/19/2024
