Action Hero MoviesThis is one of The Rock’s earlier movies — he’s looking young, lean and fly here — not the middle aged beast we know and love today.
Being a Disney movie, it’s got a certain quality of production, but it’s also a bit juvenile and over-theatrical.
By shortly after 20 minutes in, when the main character realises something is very strange but curious about the passengers he just dropped off, things become interesting, and after a powerful opening with cool things happening and near-seamless entertainment, this movie looks set for a Decent rating, give or take 1 level depending how it continues.
The slightly juvenile vibe lets it down a bit, and for this reason, by the half way mark it seems set on a Decent rating still, even though there was some strong action and plot unravelling earlier. By the end, the decision hasn’t changed.
