Without a doubt Dirty Dance (1987) and Ghost (1990) are the two most popular films that the late Patrick Swayze starred in , and it was at that time, shortly before releasing Ghost , when he was launched in other proposals taking advantage of his tough guy appearance , but with heart. This is the case of Road House , titled here precisely as By Profession: Hard , directed by  Rowdy Herrington and starring Swayze alongside Kelly Lynch . A title of which the remake will soon be released , despite the fact that at the time it was not a special box office success, but it was in domestic format, and which stars another really nice tough guy, Jake Gyllenhaal .

It was directed by Doug Liman , the same guy from Edge of Tomorrow , Mr. and Mrs. Smith and The Bourne Affair , so things are promising. In fact, he himself has assured that it is his best film. A project that began to be talked about more than a decade ago, when it was still in the hands of the MGM company, later acquired by Amazon Studios and that, given the decision to release it directly on the Prime Video platform without first going through the cinemas, has provoked the forceful protest of its director.

Cast of 'Road House: A Hard Profession'

Gyllenhaal plays the former wrestler, now a goalkeeper and security guard, and we have recently been able to see him in two other films in which there was no lack of tension and action, and both directed by specialists in the genre: Guy Ritchie: The Pact  and the adrenaline-pumping Ambulance : Michael Bay 's escape plan .

On this  occasion he is  joined in the cast by Daniela Melchior  ( from Fast & Furious And it will also mark the debut of Irish mixed martial arts fighter  Conor McGregor , currently still competing in the UFC. So to be on par with him, in terms of physical shape and muscle, Gyllenhaal has had to undergo a few intense training sessions , he even decided to participate in a real UFC event to test himself.

Synopsis of 'Road House: A Hard Profession'

The plot centers on a former UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) fighter from Dalton who ends up accepting a discreet job as a doorman at a roadside motel located in the Florida Keys . It could also be his small, quiet paradise, but it won't take long for serious problems to appear.

The adapted screenplay has been rewritten by  Anthony Bagarozzi , Chuck Mondry and  R. Lance Hill , one of the two screenwriters of the original film. And in that original eighties film, in the protagonist's new workplace he dealt in a little of everything, drugs, alcohol and even prostitution. Swayze's character's mission was also to maintain some law and order on the premises , which meant he had to deal with the local bully (played by the great Ben Gazzara). And, furthermore, the two became rivals for the love of a doctor (Kelly Lynch).

'Road House: A tough profession', the controversy

Road House will arrive on streaming not without controversy due to the protest of its director because it will be released without first going through the big theaters. In a statement collected by Deadline , Doug Liman claims to feel betrayed. "Amazon asked me and the film community to trust them and their public statements about supporting movie theaters, and they turn it around and use 'Road House' to sell plumbing fixtures ," the filmmaker comes to severely lament. That is why he does not plan to participate in the promotion of his film.

Previously, Liman explained that he had signed to make a theatrical film with MGM, and that after the acquisition by Amazon they told him to first "make a great film and we would see what would happen next . " He also comments that in previous screenings the film has received a great reception from the public and that, in the words of Amazon executives, Road House  was a potential great success. In fact, it is worth remembering that in August of last year, Jennifer Salke, director of Amazon Studios, commented that "Not only is it a nod to fans of the original, it is also a big, fun movie, and for a wide audience . "
