    Great movie. I didn't want to see it because The Rock was in it but gave it a shot. This movie had a lot of funny scenes. This movie was really good, better than I expected.

    The Rock delivers in this action movie. He has a good chemistry with Scott. Add in Christopher Walken as the bad guy and you've got an enjoyable little movie.

    One of the best buddy-action-comedy movie in recent years. Great action, great villain and great chemistry between the two lead. Watching this movie again recently makes me want to wish that the Rock (or should we call him Dwayne Johnson now) would go back to making action movies again.

    it was alright. though i didnt watch it from the start. but it wasn't something i'd say was amazing or that would wow anyone. just kinda 'nice' to watch partly due to the rock and seann william scott.

    Retrieval expert "Beck" (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) is hired by a Kingpin to go to the Amazon to bring back his son (Seann William Scott), who is in search of a priceless artifact. The two slowly become partners to fight a heartless gold-mining corporation owner (Christopher Walken).

    The action scenes, especially the fighting scenes, are simply amazing. They are well done and are shot very well. The director was on his game when setting up these scenes.

    The direction in other scenes are well done as well. They are nicely shot -- especially shots of the Amazonian jungle.

    Most of the acting is near perfect, and the chemistry between "Rock" and Scott is really good. The only poor acting is done by the veteran actor, Christopher Walken. In my opinion, Walken's performance is horrible, and his delivery of his lines is one of the worst I've ever seen. Walken just can not act well enough to make him believable in the role.

    If you want to see a movie with fair acting and great fighting scenes -- see "The Rundown". It's a fairly good movie.

    Pretty funny movie... The combination of Dwayne Johnson and Seann William Scott are very funny!! Even that, this movie got too much fighting, a little disturbing I think... But overall, thumbs up for this movie... They can got Christopher Walken and Rosario Dawson played in this movie too...

    Awesome! The Rock's character was my absoulute favorite. Quick paced without leaving you confused, and somewhat funny, it is a mighty enjoyable movie!

    The Rock is hot as usual in this movie but I think I liked this ONLY because he was dirty and sweaty most of the time. Did I just type that? :-)

    The Rock and Williams in a quality film with lots of action can't wait for the 2nd film to come out this year when they team up again.

    The Rock's best movie by far...hasn't done anything comparable since. Sean William Scott and the Rock are hilarious together. One of the best buddy action movies out there.

    So, this movie was OK. The action was really good but the storyline was kind of blase' to me. The Rock was pretty awesome though and he has a great smile! Other than that it was nothing but average.

    Not all that great, but I'm glad Sean William-Scott decided to do film other than those same old sex films like American pie, I think he's getting to old for them now lol!
    Love Dwayne Johnson used to watch him when he was in Wrestling, I hope he stays in acting (not that he needs the money) he's great.

    I watched it mostly because there is a scene involving a fight with some capoeira moves (totally boss by the way). It is an enjoyable film though, works well enough for a goofy action film, despite never achieving greatness.
