The one advantage it does have is the Rock. Johnson has become such a relaxed, determinedly unfussy presence that he’s starting to feel more and more like an old-time Hollywood star who can drop in and capably handle any role. The joke that he should be in every movie—which, this summer, feels like reality, especially when you realize there’s a freaking HBO show too—is less a joke than a wish. There hasn’t been a movie yet he hasn’t improved. The strangest thing about his success as an actor is he’s an instantly believable everyman, even though he looks like no human who has ever really existed on this planet. You relate, instinctively, to the Rock, even though you have nothing in common with him.
I haven’t seen San Andreas and I’ll probably watch it on Netflix at some point who cares, but I enjoy this review of The Rock’s performance in it. (via kelsium)
I’ll fight anyone who says anything bad about The Rock.
