  • サマリー

  • 2003’s biggest surprise (besides The OC and maybe Arnold becoming a governor.) A movie, star, and director that are all SO much better than you’d expect. Remember 2003? This movie encapsulates it. The Rock is a professional bounty hunter who hates his job, guns, and a wannabe Indiana Jones named Travis (Seann William Scott), who’s too busy searching for a mythical golden artifact in the Amazon to answer his dad’s phone calls. Rosario Dawson is reliably great in a well-written part that's basically Karen Allen from Raiders of the Lost Ark minus the drinking competition (👎) and romance (👍).


    What follows is a buddy comedy where “buddy” mostly means “I’ll beat you up if you don’t stop talking.” The Rock tries to keep a straight face while dealing with angry rebels, homicidal monkeys, and Christopher Walken’s unhinged speech about tooth fairy folklore. Yep, that happens.


    Add in some slow-motion fight scenes, a lot of jungle explosions, and more eyebrow-raises than we'd like to talk about, and you’ve got The Rundown—a movie that fosters this week's conversation that needed to happen.
