Jake Gyllenhaal steps into a role previously made famous by Patrick Swayze when he becomes a bouncer in the new remake of “Road House.” Gyllenhaal is a sort of Spider-Man-meets-Jack Reacher-meets Jason Bourne, an oddball loner with ferocious fighting abilities living in his car, haunted by what he did to a friend in the octagon. He is lured to the Florida Keys by a roadhouse bar owner who needs an excellent bouncer to protect her from nightly violence. Then he uncovers a conspiracy. Associated Press critic Mark Kennedy says it's silly and fun. The R-rated movie hits Prime Video on Thursday.
