The Rundown - 5.0/10
The Rock (formerly The Scorpion King) tries to create some buddy-chemistry with Seann William Scott. And fails. This movie was so boring, and so predictable, I was able to efficiently multitask with it running in the background.
The premise - The Rock's a retrieval expert. He's sent in for "one last mission" into the Amazon jungle, to retrieve an errant trasure hunter. While there, he gets mixed up in a local rebellion against tyrannical mine owner (played by Christopher Walken), and (eventually) takes a stand.
Of the 3 lead roles, I found Christopher Walken to be the best, but marginally so. I wish I could find something interesting to say about this movie, but try as I might, I can't.
