What are these comments? This is a comm for people who like movies? It’s a Safdie movie that by all accounts is at least decent, even if it flirts with “Oscar bait”. Weird to almost revel in its box office failure.
The Rock always was a movie “star” because peoplee saw him as a relatable dude, he was never a good actor
Is that actually the case? To me he never seemed relatable. If I had to describe him he is/was pretty much the personification of the type of movies he had success with. Over the top, generally positive and lighthearted, and firmly in the pure entertainment not art category. But I wouldn’t call him relatable.
Well, personally I agree with you… I have a real hard time with the American Celebrity Worship mentality but that is what I kept on reading online about The Rock.
I never actually liked any of his movies because even if they are to be silly, action goofiness, I need a good cast that sells that… his wooden, always-the-same, performance was just boring. His are the type of movies I would not pause to go to the bathroom. However, this is a matter of taste and everybody can have their own and no need to justify them
Having said that, I was very willing to be less critical of his work when I thought he was a nice guy to his fans… now that I know he is yet another self-centered diva, I couldn’t care less if he retires and never makes another film

I think a lot of people here just don’t like The Rock.
Personally, I’m indifferent to him.

After becoming a diva, he destroyed his own value… plus only Rogan idiots care about MMA
I like movies… nothing here calls my attention except perhaps the question “how did they drag Emily Blunt into this?”
