The Rundown is arguably the best movie of the year

Beck is the kind of guy that doesn't often get pushed around. And when he is, he just pushes back harder. Dwayne "the rock" Johnson plays Beck, a bounty hunter from L.A. sent to escort his bosse's son Travis, out of... Full review

The Rock does a very good job acting. A few lines he didn't do so good with but overall he did a great job. A lot better then The Scorpion King (about a C+). Don't go to this movie expecting a... Full review

when you starred in this mess? the story was predictable and all the rock's lines consisted of "yeah" and "okay" because if he tries to talk he stutters like ryan seacrest. this latino lapdance of a movie made me sleepy.... Full review

This movie was funny from start to end. I think that the people who have given this movie a bad review are just way too serious and need to take more medication. If you love action and comedy then you will... Full review

The skill of moving from "choreographed acting" to real acting is a just that, a skill. He may have been a wrestler, but he's a great actor and showing great promise. The reviewers who didn't rate this movie well are simply... Full review

If it had that, it would be the perfect action-adventure film. Whatever the reason, catch "The Rundown" and help it gain the cult status it rightly deserves. See it for The Rock, the last truly great action star. ... Full Review

Sporting a plot that's more fitting of a summertime big action/big comedy release, "The Rundown" is a comedic tour-de-force loaded with first-rate performances.....is rated PG-13 for adventure violence and some crude dialogue.....The always impressive Rosario Dawson doesn't get to do as much as her male counterparts.... ...

I'm surprised The Rundown didn't do better at the box office, but there isn't a more entertaining lighthearted action flick on HD DVD at the moment, and early adopters eager for some popcorn excitement should put this disc on their short list. Truffaut it's not, but The Rundown is propelled by an infectious amount of energy and enthusiasm, Peter Berg's direction is far more confident and sure-handed than I would've expected for a sophomore feature film effort (a couple of obnoxious stylistic choices aside) ...

It wouldnt be difficult to cut out the ha-ha stuff without affecting the overall film, and it would be a better movie for it. He plays it here kind of tounge-in-cheek, and I enjoyed watching him have fun. ... Full Review

Walken effortlessly walks away with the picture among such relative newcomers.....The director has admitted using frantic quick-cuts for some action scenes to obscure deficiences in their execution.....Highly atmospheric in a gritty, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre way, the film has awesome scenery, albeit augmented with computerized face-lifts.....But we appreciate the film's avoidance of sexist romantic entanglements in favor of soldierly camaraderie.....At least it relies on a diverse, charismatic cast, ...
