Not to hate on the guy but what classic movies does the rock have under his belt?

How many times is this dumb lie going to be repeated?

Fast four made over 350 Million,which was the highest grossing in the franchise at that point and rock had never been in a film that made that much.

After the success of fast 4 rock called vin to congratulate him on it and asked to be part of the franchise

All fast five did was find a new formula for the franchise and make them “cool” for people who worry about what the critics say. That’s it :russ:

It’s still probably the best movie in the franchise but it just made them fashionable. It didn’t revive shyt tho. But this is the Internet and the coli, meaning if you as an individual aren’t into a thing or interested then no one else will be. See: oceans 8

Classics as in Arnold has terminator and stallone has rocky/rambo? Naw...but modernday i believe he has a few that are classics to certain people but not really any universal classics...

Still tho, hes prob the only name in hollywoord right now where u throw his name on a marquee and can compete with comic book movies and star wars as far as tickets sold

The Other Guys is a classic. Would’ve been a classic without The Rock, but he was in it so he at least got one.

Fast Five is the best in the franchise.

Moana is insanely popular.

Most of his movies may be dumb as hell but Rocky does his thing and has become THE go to action star.

rock is all about volume. he's equivalent to an nba volume scorer. he's gonna pump out as many movies as possible and be happy with an average rating and big check.
Great analogy. Most action stars are all about volume and sequels. Kevin Hart is the same, he doesn't really have that one or two "classic" movie but as long as he keeps shooting he's good.

I had the same problem with Rock a few years ago about not having that one classic Rock movie but almost everything he's in makes a ton of money so it doesn't matter (heh) if it's a classic or not. Rock is like Russell Westbrook, win or lose he's gonna get those rebounds by the end of the game because he's already secured his 10+ points and assists.

might be a hot take but when it's all said and done, i think the rock will have one of the most successful acting career ever.
Rocky is Allen Iverson?

No classics but he has been in some good movies. Pain & Gain is one of my favorites with him in it
