I watched Roadhouse

The directing is bad.
The writing is (mostly) bad.
The camera work is really weird.
McGregor is laughable.

Despite the above, I was laughing most of the way through and had an enjoyable time. Gyllenhaal carries it and is obviously having fun. I liked the MMA backstory (I'm not a big MMA fan mostly because of scenes like guys pounding on the faces of obviously unconscious opponents). It obviously knew what it was and some of the characters had me howling. Especially the biker with the broken arm who was super polite. Gyllenhaal had some laugh moments as well.

Overall I had fun. It's not a serious movie and thats okay,.
