This Is CineMMA | Episode 1 | Road House - Is This The Best MMA Movie Ever?
Description
Conor McGregor, Hollywood superstar?
On the inaugural episode of This is CineMMA, the MMA Fighting movie review crew takes a long look at the recently released #RoadHouse remake (re-imagining? remix?), which also features Jake Gylenhaal as a disgraced #UFC fighter looking to turn his life around when he gets a job as a bouncer in the Florida Keys.
Join Alexander K. Lee, Jed Meshew, and E. Casey Leydon as we give you a blow-by-blow account of the best fight scenes, the most convincing combatants, and the most inspiring martial arts quotes from what some are calling a cinematic masterpiece.
How is McGregor as an actor? How is Gylenhaal as a fighter? And how would any of the characters in Road House fare if they actually got a call-up to the UFC?
All that, plus we answer the question of where Road House ranks among the greatest MMA-related movies of all time.
