Road House is much funnier than most comedies, until it turns vile instead of just stupid.

Its vigilante justice, lawlessness and wanton violence feel ludicrous in a modern setting.

Swayze is up to a part that requires him merely to show his muscles and dexterity, but Gazzara is trapped in his hopelessly evil caricature, leaving Sam Elliott (in a too-limited role) to provide the film's only real charm.

Good-natured enough, but essentially an excuse for lots of mindless violence perpetrated by one-dimensional characters.

An immensely enjoyable slice of romanticised fisticuffs, this is a Western in every respect except the stetsons and six guns.

All Road House amounts to is a botched southern, and it's not worth a detour.

Swayze kicks some serious ass

Eventually it mutates into a paranoid revenge plot that might be called Walking Short.

Mindless entertainment of the highest order.

Road House is startling because of the intensity of its violence and because of Swayze's mindless posturing.

The Peruvian marching powder is all but dusting the corners of the frame throughout 'Road House,' which may as well go into a museum for '80s artifacts.
