Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Professional wrestling star the Rock, who was such a lump of flesh in The Scorpion King, proves surprisingly light on his feet in The Rundown, demonstrating charm and humor as well as the requisite toughness. Beck (the Rock), a repo-man for deadbeats, is sent to South America to find a treasure hunter (Seann William Scott) who's seeking a priceless golden idol--which the local head honcho (Christopher Walken) would like to get his hands on as well. Add in the lovely but dangerous barmaid with a secret (Rosario Dawson), and Beck has some obstacles to overcome. The plot of The Rundown isn't anything special, but the script is enjoyably clever and reasonably coherent; the capable cast keeps things lively; and the movie's relaxed but sinewy pace sets it apart from the frantic floundering of recent action flicks--kudos to director Peter Berg (Very Bad Things). A surprisingly fun flick. --Bret Fetzer

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great action flick
In this great movie the Rock plays Beck, a so called "retriever" for a loan shark. Beck dreams to run his own 5-star restraurant and leave this life behind him. However the boss gives one final job, bring back his son Travis (Seann William Scott). Travis not only doesn't want to go home, but bad guy Hatcher (The hilarious Christopher Walken) won't let hime go until Travis finds a mythical golden idol for him were only Travis knows where it is.

The Rock brings pure awesome to this film and is arguably his best film to date. The movie is wonderfully photographed, and the comic moments flow throughout the film making it enjoyable and entertaining at the same time. Not only are the fights choreographed beautifully, but the action is easy to follow and feels realistic, with none of the choppy editing and shaky photography that has ruined many an action movie. Also Seann William Scott shows that he can act ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - fun no brainer
fun movie that you do not have to think too much about. you can just watch the movie and enjoy it but really not get too invested in the characters or plot.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not a showcase HD-DVD, but still good fun
Was hoping that on HD-DVD the lush tropical settings would really look sharp, apparently there's a grain filter so it might put off a few. This does fill my collection of "adventure" movies nicely, not the best acting, nor the best dialog.. but there is a lot of fun to be had. 'The Rock' is a great action star, and Walken is just priceless in anything he does.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Family Go-To Movie
This is our favorite family back-up movie. It doesn't matter if it's 105 degrees or we're stuffed full of turkey, this movie has a little something for everyone. It's fairly family friendly, regarding language etc, no real nudity or sensuality. More importantly for the teen girls and ladies, it has Dwayne Johnson being smart, funny and drop dead gorgeous. For all the guys, there are terrific stunts, mixed martial arts fights. Some wonderful, buddy comedy and Christopher Walken, as always, stealing the show with a silly explanation of the tooth fairy myth to his thugs. A worthwhile investment to keep around the house!
