A good old fashioned late 80’s good vs bad action flick. Patrick Swayze in prime 80’s regalia (you know, mullet, tank shirt, smoking, hot girl winning), as he holds the role of super-bouncer and takes on the bad dudes getting the way of an honest folks trying to make money from music, girls, and booze. As you’d imagine, this is Patrick’s element – so there’s no holding this man down as he kicks-ass in the name of good people. The movie was surprisingly good fun to watch – not too cheesy even in 2011.
Patrick Swayze is, well, Patrick Swayze – just as you expect him to be. Sam Elliot is great as the gruff side kick, and Ben Gazzara is in his prime as the big cheese bad guy.
Straight forward and no nonsense violent approach to good vs. bad as was so often for the day. Think Billy Jack as a bar-hopper.
