The movie, available on Prime Video, centers around an ex-UFC fighter turned bouncer at a Florida Keys roadhouse who becomes entangled in a conflict with a local criminal organization. A remake of the 1989 classic starring Patrick Swayze, Gyllenhaal portrays the lead role of Elwood Dalton, alongside McGregor in his acting debut.
