It might be time for Rock to come home full time

Rock can do better, but dude wanted to make money over a good product. People will only buy this bullshyt for so long.

But then again...people still buy Madden, so what do I know.

Rock's characters are always Mary Sue's. People get mad when you bring this up about women but Rock applies as well

Every one of these movies has Rock being an invincible video game character. It's great for a wtf laugh at first but that shyt gets old fast. We wanna see characters struggle and take Ls before they win. Goku lost half his fights and he's an international hero:mjlol:

The only way a cartoon character like the Rock works is in the midst of outrageous cartoon fukkery, which is why his character in Fast and Furious is still effective. Those movies are physics defying fukkery from the opening credits

Hopefully this Safdie A24 movie does well and he realizes that he can't keep making bullshyt all the time.

Rock tried to carny Hollywood with Black Adam so they have been shytting on him with hit pieces.

And at the end of the day Rock was always an ensemble actor. He’s not the box office draw that he built himself up as.
