Everything Actioncast: Road House (2024)
This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris head to the Florida Keys and visit The Road House to talk about Doug Liman’s reimagining of the cult 80s classic Road House.
Jake Gyllenhaal stars as Elwood Dalton, a disgraced UFC fighter who takes a job bouncing for The Road House bar in the Florida Keys community of Glass Key. Dalton soon learns that an evil business magnate, Ben Brandt (Billy Magnussen) wants to drive The Road House out of business to build a mega-resort on the land and sends all manner of goons to harass Dalton and the bar, including the psychotic Knox, played by Conor McGregor. The guys discuss how Brandt could build his resort and drive The Road House out of business with the competition, the clashing tones of serious and comedic, McGregor’s unhinged performance, Dalton’s mysterious combat skills, and more.
