...Road House on a 6 inch screen, too?

It's a classic.

Whether you watch it or not, you pay for the movie in your plane ticket.

Good point. One thing that really stood out: Winona Ryder. - tinear 16:23:55 03/16/14 (10)
How far has her beauty slipped.
And casting her, as a tough moll? Wow. Make's Franco's casting seem intelligent.
- Formularistic poor cinematography only good thing - Des 01:56:07 03/17/14 (9)
  Waiting for the come uppence for the bad guys
  
  Franco tried but wimped more than threatened
  
  I do agree Winona was great-gritty and true to character--pity wasted in this dosh.
  
  I think though the earthy look and roles may be her saviour now.

  - What? A guy here thinks it vastly is better on a really BIG screen! Sorry, but you - tinear 08:34:23 03/17/14 (8)
    misunderstood my point about Winona: she is NOT convincing, to me, as a low-life. I thought the film failed, partially, because neither she nor Franco can really play anything but what they obviously are---- smart, arty.

      ...you two are very full of yourselves.
      
      It's a popcorn action flick, that like most, is not meant for condescending part-by-part critical assessment.
      
      You suspend reality and enjoy it - or you don't.
      
      A guilty pleasure, not intended to be great cinema by any means.

        Your logic would lead one to sit through any shit, quietly and obediently.
        99% of films are entertainment. This one was one of the poorer of that 99% in current release. Still, it was better than reading the airline magazine for the third time or trying to figure out which passenger's fart was wafting to my unappreciative nostrils.

        ...who thinks "Road House" is in the top 1%.
        
        Nah, just thought it was worth a bag of popcorn. nt - tinear 09:57:41 03/22/14 (2)

        The plane had no popcorn. You can deduce. nt - tinear 07:38:52 03/23/14 (0)
