    When we were visiting Toronto back in 2018 my wife noticed a rather fatal flaw in this sign advertising the film SKYSCRAPER (starting Dwayne Johnson). A tweet about it went semi-viral and I think someone got yelllled at. To this day she refers to The Rock as "Johnson Raper".

    Watched that Skyscraper movie w/ Dwayne Big Stones Johnson and figured out he is kinda cute as an actor when he's playing a more vulnerable character like legit more attractive seeing him wit some older facial hair and a struggle in some fights.

    Corporate greed, illicit affairs, and plenty of pre-Code scandal. Warren William stars in Edgar Selwyn’s Skyscraper Souls (1932), a surprisingly cynical MGM drama. CineSavant’s Glenn Erickson revisits the film and Warner Archive Collection’s restored Blu-ray. trailersfromhell.com/cinesavant/s...

    Detective Conan Movie 1: The Time-Bombed Skyscraper This held up even better than I remember... even though my brain was conflating it with Countdown to Heaven. Every bit of the film is super rock solid and enjoyable, but when the 3rd act hits, it shoots into the moon. Ran is the greatest woman ever

    Helen Coburn in SKYSCRAPER SOULS, 1932. Her only film after three Broadway flops. Two small bits and then one Big Amazing Scene that stuns in a mixed bag of a film that I still love a lot. She died in L.A. in 1993 at age 80.

ET, The Blues Brothers, Get Out, Skyscraper, Super 8, The Lego Movie, Much Ado About Nothing... Jurassic Park was so popular it got held over... I saw it so many times I can never watch it again!

    The movie she did after this one, Skyscraper, is somehow even more ridiculous because it's a bargain bin Die Hard with her as John McClane but with random sex scenes scattered throughout. It's very funny.

    My benchmark here is 'Skyscraper' - the 'what if Diehard happened to a much bigger guy in a much bigger building' film - it's crap, but it delivers entirely on that premise in a way that's entertaining enough for a relatively short film. This was nowhere near 'Skyscraper' level.

    1) The Time-Bombed Skyscraper Pretty decent standalone movie, the 90s animation was very good to look at. Lost my mind at Speed but 21 trains Not really much of a mystery because there are two suspects...and one of them goes on to become a major character in the manga lol The ending was pretty cute

    It's an ultimate frame of mind movie. It is what it is, it's Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as the hero of the tale who has to achieve the impossible when the world's tallest building catches fire. His family is trapped in said building inferno and there's bad guys running around creating trouble. So sit down and get ready for fantastically high energy action scenes and hold your breath peril sequences.

    Die Hard in a (X) is a pretty classic movie formula, it doesn't get as much play now as it did in the 80s and 90s, but we can still reliably expect at least one every couple of years, even now. But when it's Die Hard in a Skyscraper... I mean... That's just Die Hard. Even Die Hard 2 had the sensibility to be Die Hard in an Airport. Except that, no, this isn't just Die Hard, because (and I don't think anyone would be shocked to find this) it's not as good. I mean I love The Rock and all, but…

    Well, if you are a fan of The Rock this is a decent enough high octane action, disaster and special effects movie. If not, well then you probably have to be a pretty big fan of special effects and action to overlook its weak points. Let’s start with the good stuff. One, it is The Rock (yes I am a fan) although he certainly doesn’t come out at his best in this movie. Personally I could do without the artificial leg crap but it didn’t bother me too much in the end. It didn’t really add anything…

Will Sawyer’s posed with a challenge when the tablet that he was for some reason given with full control of the security system and just about everything else about the building, gets stolen, the building set on fire,…
