Road House

Jake Gyllenhaal stars as a former UFC fighter running from a dark past in the Florida Keys when he gets hired as a bouncer at a bar overrun by violent thugs.  The remake of the 1980s Patrick Swayze film hasn’t won over critics, but it’s aiming for the guys-night-in crowd and especially the Gen-Xers and Boomers who might remember watching the original as a kid. Look for actual UFC champ Conor McGregor along with costars Billy Magnussen, Jessica Williams, Darren Barnet, Lukas Gage, and Arturo Castro.

Bob Marley: One Love

His music inspired peace movements and spread messages of unity across Africa. It also launched reggae as a genre around the world, and turned him into a symbol.  In 1999, the BBC declared “One Love” the song of the Millennium.  This is a film released in theaters to give people a combination of rousing concert experience and inspiring biopic.  Kingsly Ben-Adir soars in the role, but critics seem to be wishing for more biopic and less performance.

What is it like to wake up at the center of a tabloid scandal of presidential proportions? This Peacock doc takes viewers into the personal life and perspective of the woman who repeatedly became front page fodder during the Trump campaign and administration. “I would like to hope that even Stormy’s critics and enemies could be moved by the film about her because, at its core, it’s a successful attempt to strip away the political issues and present its subject as a flesh-and-blood human being…” – Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com.
