The Rock is a pretty face and body who has no acting skill at all, and he proves that (again) here. Jack Black is not a pretty face or body who has a ton of acting skill, and he does not fully prove that here. Iseman, Turner, and Hart all do their bests, but it still feels a little lacking. Awkwafina does a bang up job and almost saves the acting part of the movie single-handedly. Danny Devito is always phenomenal, and it’s a sad reflection on Johnson’s lack of skill that he (Devito) at his age can smolder better than Johnson can. The plot is a little weak and it suffers from horrible direction, but in a genre where the third film is usually the conclusion, this has a feel of a second film and left me wanting more. Overall, worth seeing once.
