This is a well-done movie that doesn't try to take itself seriously. Everyone involved knows the plot is ludicrous and the characters the stuff of adolescent dreams, but it's solid entertainment and fun to watch.
Patrick Swayze plays a "cooler" who's hired to clean up a rowdy bar in Kansas (actually filmed in Valencia and Canyon Country, CA). Ben Gazarra is the local bad guy who runs the town. Kelly Lynch plays a doctor - that's right, a doctor - who's the love interest, and Sam Elliot plays another bouncer pal of Swayze's. Toss in a bunch of foxy babes, some pseudo tough guys, and locals fed up with payoffs, and you've got conflict.
Hey, they can't all be "Citizen Kane."
