Best movie ever!

The first must-see film of the year.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

This movie is the definition of entertainment! No BS, No emoting, no pandering. It starts fast and moves along at a great pace. Johnson has charisma as an actor and just keeps getting better. The action scenes are fantastic and it's hard to pick out a favorite one. Seann Scott is positively hilarious as the wisecracking little target of Dwayne's hunt. Their back and forth reminds me of Crash and Eddie from Ice Age 2 fearlessly taking on Diego. Rosario Dawson is as sexy as ever as the bartender and what can I say about Christopher Walken? He's his usual self delivering a quirky role yet again. If you love funny action/comedy, this is a keeper.

This 2003 action-comedy stars Dwayne Johnson, Seann William Scott, Rosario Dawson and Christopher Walken. Johnson plays Beck, a bounter hunter turned chef who is sent to find his employer's son, Travis (Scott) in the Brazilian jungle. While on his mission, Beck runs into obstacles meeting new allies and enemies. Dawson (Sin City) plays Mariana, a rebel leader/bartender and Walken (At Close Range) plays Hatcher, a ruthless, Despot who is searching for an ancient artifact that Travis has hidden. This is a good flick with a great cast, good score and thrilling action sequences. Johnson makes his mark in this film and there's a quick cameo by a certain, "Terminator" star.

I read somewhere that this was a spiritual remake of Midnight Run which is one of my favourite films...any fans of Midnight Run DO NOT FALL INTO THE SAME TRAP! Some bits are directly ripped from Midnight Run (from memory the start is incredibly similar), but the rest of the film is completely different, as is the humour. I found myself snigering a couple of times, usually due to the excellent Christopher Walken, but other than that the comedy fell short for me...and what was that awful Scottish accent of the pilot? Initially I thought he was Irish...then there were bagpipes and the penny dropped he was supposed to be Scottish.Maybe it's just me (being from the UK - something lost in translation?), but I found some of the 'slapstick' too OTT (rolling down the cliff being a good example) also things like 100's bullets being fired and all hitting the ground near feet (worst aiming in history). I found the comedy a bit too childish at times (toilet jokes)...but maybe the age rating had something to do with it? Anyway, overall the film was OK maybe I went in with my expectations too high (although I was aware this film wasn't as good) - not bad but anyone thinking of watching this needs to know Midnight Run is a substantially better film.

Bounty Hunter The Rock takes on a job in the South American jungle so that he can be released from whatever debt he owes this guy and get his own restaurant. Then put the believability cloak in the closet because it is all tongue in cheek after that.This crazy kid Travis he is chasing down is nuts, in a weird somewhat harmless way. The Rock battles against Christopher Walken, an excellent job by Walken in an otherwise unthrilling acting display. The Rock takes on all rivals. You already know the plot, you know who is going to win, don't you? the rest is there so you ask - how is this going to go down.Even tho there was little acting, the plot was stupid, the characters thin, because of how they played the whole movie as tongue in cheek, it emerges a respectable B grade movie. Hey - you could do worse. Enjoy.
