WORK – The best bouncer is him!

Dalton is a talented nightclub emptyer with martial arts, a bachelor in philosophy and trained by the veteran of the trade, Wade Garrett. He took up a position at the Double Deuce, a discotheque in Jasper City, Missouri, to restore order. He quickly moved closer to Elizabeth Clay, a young doctor, and opposed Brad Wesley, who was fearful of the city.

Pure product from the end of the 80s which is in the movie of a baton whatDirty Dancingis in the dance film, this series B romantic action where the « mano a mano » and punchlines just aim is led by aPatrick Swayzecharismatic (whether or not the torso is naked). And despite characters to say the least caricatural and a basic script as possible (all the imposed figures of the western are taken over there), the charm still works. In a word as in a hundred, a trendy burny trip « blue flower » Totally cult.

SON – Say good night Denise

Where the soundtrack 5.1 lacks body (the bottom of the spectrum is barely decent) but enjoys the agitation of the bars on the rear scene, its sister 2.0 which is more punchy (the score ofMichael Kamenmuscle) must be content with frontal mixing. In either case energy is present, the dialogues are always clear and the immersion comfortable.

CONCLUSION – Dirty Fighting?

Before remake withJake Gyllenhaal(as an MMA veteran) which will soon be broadcast onPremium Video, (re)discover the original in optimal conditions by allowing the present 4K Ultra HD... The zic is good, the beer is fresh and Lycra is not missing!

Nyctalope like Riddick and with a very good hearing, I am ready to jump on physical editions and SVOD platforms. But if the quality isn't on the rendezvous, stop at the bite! #WeLovePhysicalMedia
