While The Rock’s family was trapped 220 stories in a burning skyscraper, I was trapped in a dark movie theater in Queens, seated next to @WWEMemes’ very own Matt Conklin, enduring the overly self-seriousness of this stupid action film.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson generally has incredible charisma, but he’s awfully boring here, as is the film that surrounds him. Filmmaker Rawson Marshall Thurber didn’t fully embrace the ridiculousness of Skyscraper’s concept, thus failing to deliver something wholly fun and entertaining in a “just go with it” type of way. It’s just a disposable flick with a few standout moments.
