The Rundown Movie Review
Courtesy of UniversalThe Rundown is a rockin' action movie starring
The Rock as Beck, a
professional butt kicker for hire.
The Rundown is about Beck paying off a debt to a mob boss by dragging his loudmouthed son, Travis (
Seann William Scott) out of a jungle
slave mine ruled by the evil Hatcher. Along the way Beck has to deal with
monkeys,
cows, a tribe of
Tarzan wannabes and the beautiful Mariana (
Rosario Dawson).
The Rundown - Good Stuff
The Rundown is packed with
awesome action scenes, including some of the
wildest fights you'll ever see. The
tunes in The Rundown even match the action perfectly to really make it
rock the theater. The coolest part about
The Rundown is definitely the characters, though.
The Rock is awesome as Beck, whether he's
kicking butt or just goofin' around, this dude has superstar written all over him.
Seann William Scott plays a perfect pain in the butt
sidekick,
Rosario Dawson is great and Christopher Walken (as Hatcher) is still the
creepiest villain on
earth.
The Rundown - Bad Stuff
If you're looking for a
mountain of bad news, you're not going to get it from The Rundown. The biggest problem is that the movie, The Rundown, flips back and forth between a totally evil vibe with Hatcher and a totally goofy vibe with
The Rock and Seann William Scott. The jumping from
monkey wrestling and pee jokes to serious evil is a bit hard to take.
The Rundown - Bottom Line
Go see this movie right now, before all your
cool friends see it without you. It won't win an Oscar but it's an
awesome flick that's full of action,
comedy and cows, a whole lot of cows.
