The Double Deuce needs professional help. It's time they hire a cooler.
Fewer performers were equally as adept at romancing ladies as they were roundhouse kicking slack-jawed goons in the face than Patrick Swayze. Thankfully, the appropriately-named Rowdy Herrington delivered the universe a favor by giving us both sides of the Swayz’ in ROAD HOUSE. A bouncer who trains other bouncers, Dalton is the best bar rescue man (or cooler) in the business. Armed with his bare fists, a sly smirk, and a philosophy degree, Dalton jumps head-first into the seedy world of the Double Deuce, going toe-to-toe with corrupt, ascot-wearing businessman Brad Wesley (Ben Gazzara). A mustache-less yet impossibly tough Sam Elliott joins the party later. Pain don’t hurt, but missing this screening will. (Jake Isgar)
