Summary
Former UFC champion Elwood Dalton makes a living by scamming fighters in the underground circuit.
After witnessing his latest 'victory', Frankie asks him to be the head bouncer at The Road House in Florida Keys, as beach bar is attracting the wrong clientele.
Dalton soon clashes with a biker gang, who work for crime boss Ben Brandt.
Getting wind of the situation, Ben's father Gerald contacts mafia enforcer Knox to hunt Dalton down.
Amidst all this, we learn Sheriff "Big Dick" is corrupt and tells Dalton to get the fuck out of dodge.
Mid-credits
Knox is revealed to have survived and escapes from hospital.
All at sea
Touching the untouchable needs to stop - RIGHT NOW.
Seriously, the only highlight is Jake Gyllenhaal and Patrick Swayze would probably appreciate his performance.
The rest is just...
Brandt's rubbish goons, aka "rage-filled dickheads" attempt goofy humour, but spectacularly fail.
McGregor's acting debut is embarrassing and quality of CG between him and Dalton insults a terrible video game.
Was forgotten direct-to-video sequel Road House 2 better?
Maybe.
