I watched this movie because of JG, an actor I consider great both for his acting and for the scripts he selects.
I was wrong this time.
That Roadhouse movie script is so weak I even don't know how it could arise interest.
The dialogues are sometimes so poor, so flat that any actor should complain to have to comply. Really.
I have no idea why a talented fellow like JG put his feet into such a mess.
Sadly, his acting is quite lame also, with that kind of rapidly unbearable smile always on his face.
Maybe, he was dreaming about being an MMA fighter, and felt happy to play it in this gross movie.
No need to talk about Mc Gregor, his acting was a mere catastroph, no surprise from him.
I put 3 stars, and not less, because of a few good lines, unfortunately much too few times.

Amazing movie, sooo beautifully made, written and thought.
Not a single moment of boredom, not a single "cliché", and in no way gross, clumsy or awkward.
At the same time, simple and subtle.
No actor falls into the trap of the exaggeration. Special accolade to Jose Garcia, whose character could have rapidly turned him into a charmless caricature. On the opposite, he delivers a fantastic performance, carrying the movie into his own obsession about Dali, in an energic and delicate way at the same time.
All the main characters are very well crafted and, together with a great acting and a great script, it creates a joyfull and very pleasant atmosphere all along the movie.
Only one possible comment for this piece of art: CONGRATULATIONS.

Open your eyes: What do children represent?
Innocence. At least young ones, like in this movie.
What is this movie about?
Cruelty, evil behaviour by children who should be innocent.
What do they have which make them so different, and can explain this intensity in doing evil?
A special power, a natural gift that gives them power.
Thus, the meaning of this movie could the following:
Children are cruel and evil as may be adults, human beings in general.
The power, they have been gifted with, triggers their inner cruelty, unmasks how mean these little beings can be, highlights that they are everything except innocent, pure creatures.
Therefore, children should not be attributed this naive status of innocence. We, adults, are wrong about them: these creepy creatures don't deserve any special consideration, any specific protection.
This idea is emphasized by the perfectly cynical title, given how children are (mis)represented in this movie.
That's why one can only feel uneasy, uncomfortable watching how that movies is wrecking the whole concept of early childhood.
What could be the idea behing this destruction?
I let you guess.
Children should be ripped of any special consideration, any special care.
For what hidden and hideous purpose?
I'd better not say.
I might be mistaken, but my intuition is rarely wrong.
This movie is evil.
It has been written by evil minds.
