I turned this off at the 1hr 2 minute mark.
Why, because Coners poor attempt at acting ruined what was already a poor film.
Let me start with the positives, Jake does well, a troubled character that had potential ( didn't see all the film so can't judge fully) his first fight outside the roadhouse, brilliant , extremely well choreographed and made me think, ok this film has potential, then it went downhill rapidly. Sadly this film is a poor attempt at a remake, revamp or reimagination of a great albeit dated classic.
No one can replace Swayze but I gave Jake a chance and he may well be the only good thing about this.
Everyone else, you need to enroll in more acting lessons.
The villain, Ben Brandt, just terrible acting but not compared to coner, with his ott stupid smug grin showing off his pearly whites, the dude can throw a punch obviously but jeez, why try acting, its not for him. Had his character been mute I probably would have sat through the other crap actors but he was just so bad!
If the story was going to follow the original I'd took too long to get to the point.
I gave it a chance but nope, my advice, just watch the trailer then go and watch Swayze's far superior classic.
