The Rundown
Directed by Peter Berg
When Travis, the mouthy son of a criminal, disappears in the Amazon in search of a treasured artifact, his father sends in Beck, who becomes Travis's rival for the affections of Mariana, a mysterious Brazilian woman. With his steely disposition, Beck is a man of few words -- but it takes him all the discipline he can muster to work with Travis to nab a tyrant who's after the same treasure. From TMDB

neutral · AI labelView post →okay but The Rundown is a good movie
positive · AI labelView post →Movie Of The Day... The Rundown (2003) 🎥
neutral · AI labelView post →Rosario Dawson in THE RUNDOWN is a perpetually underrated entry in the "what's the hottest a person has ever looked in a movie" sweepstakes
neutral · AI labelView post →The Rundown is The Rock’s best film. He peaked right there; he shouldn’t have traded in Sean William Scott for Kevin Hart
positive · AI labelView post →apropos of nothing, thinking about how, although he's very funny in THE RUNDOWN and legit amazing in PAIN & GAIN, Dwayne Johnson is inconceivable in a KNIVES OUT movie and could never put on those little glasses like in BLADE RUNNER 2049.
neutral · AI labelView post →Here’s my Ryan Reynolds theory: I think the box office had room for either Ryan Reynolds or Sean William Scott but not both. I think they are almost interchangeable (look at Scott in Dwayne Johnson’s best film: The Rundown). But Deadpool sealed the deal. #HATM
neutral · AI labelView post →THIS WEEK IN THE RUNDOWN -- The Beekeeper looks like the most Jason Statham movie ever made, which is absolutely not a complaint -- The Morning Show has somehow gotten even sillier, which is also not a complaint -- $75K PHILLY CRAB LEG HEIST And more! uproxx.com/movies/beeke...
neutral · AI labelView post →The Rundown was such a good movie.
positive · AI labelView post →Have just seen this picture and as a home video critic I have to warn you: it is possible to buy The Rundown all by itself. You don't have to acquire all of these other movies to get it. I think Kino is even putting out a 4K UHD

neutral · AI labelView post →The template for The Rock’s success is his 2003 movie The Rundown. Good actors, (some) actually funny jokes, great action, and a scene where The Rock gets the shit beaten out of him by a little wiry guy on a rope swing. That’s literally all we want!
positive · AI labelView post →considering that he plays the exact same role, I really loved him in The Rundown. That movie was a childhood favorite of my brother and I's.
positive · AI labelView post →The Rundown is good! That's another type of movie they don't really make anymore and while I'm more inclined towards Faster-style shit I'd bring those back if I could, and he'd be a colossus in that genre.
positive · AI labelView post →The Rundown + Red One both the genre of film I am forced to call "Dwayne The Rock Johnson looks at a brat criminal like "great now I gotta be responsible for this water bottle" "you don't have to be-- "No I gotta""
neutral · AI labelView post →I watched this video so much at the time that the next time I watched the movie the Rundown, and it got to the part with the shootout, I was like, "Wait, why are they using the Nintendo On music?" youtu.be/6m_82jJmA4o
neutral · AI labelView post →is The Rundown (2003) the best or the worst movie of all time, the longest thread in the history of forums, locked after
neutral · AI labelView post →Is that from his remake of Walking Tall? Because I think Walking Tall and The Rundown (Christopher Walken at his most Walken) are the peak of his forays into film
neutral · AI labelView post →This was still more than I wanted to pay for it, but I finally broke down and got KINO LORBER's 4k of THE RUNDOWN (2003) This is still, in my opinion, the best film that both the Rock AND Peter Berg ever made, and some great work from Sean William Scott, who is a VASTLY underrated performer.

positive · AI labelView post →Campfire Shakespeare! Radiohead film bunker! Vikings! Interactive telephone theatre and Zoom games! I have two reviews this week on the Rundown: www.noproscenium.com/immersiv...
neutral · AI labelView post →Sorry everyone. The Rundown is a close second, but Moana is his best movie.
positive · AI labelView post →Terminator, but special shout-out to a childhood fave Kindergarten Cop. Also he had a small cameo in The Rundown which is a fantastic but underrated action movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →My hot take is his best movie being the Rundown. Knock off Indiana Jones in a good way.
positive · AI labelView post →I swear The Rundown and Walking Tall are just the same movie. Both fun, as were Be Cool and Doom, but basically the same movie. (I’ve watched both way too many times.)
positive · AI labelView post →The Rundown is a great movie!
positive · AI labelView post →Watching KINO LORBER's 4K of THE RUNDOWN (2003). Former actor Peter Berg directs a blossoming actor in the Rock and together they produce an absolutely SUBLIME and stylish action comedy that excels because it subverts action movie tropes by presenting a different kind of masculinity.
positive · AI labelView post →A largely missed takeaway from The Rundown was that both the Rock and Sean William Scott are really charismatic on screen and that movie was very fun because of both of them. Turned into a launchpad for the rock but less so for stifler.
positive · AI labelView post →The Rock was funny as hell in the Rundown. His uber stereotypical evil Marine in Doom was pure cheese but also super entertaining. That movie was trash but it was FUN trash.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Rock's best movie is still "The Rundown" and that's really sad. Not that that film is bad, but he started off by allowing himself to appear human. Now, he's a walking parody.

neutral · AI labelView post →The Rundown. That movie is deliciously ridiculous. The Rock punches his way through a concrete support pillar mid-jump.
positive · AI labelView post →Schwarzenegger tells him to “have fun” in a quick cameo in The Rundown (which I still think is his best movie).
positive · AI labelView post →I had no idea this movie existed and now I must watch it. Especially since The Rundown (2001) is one of my favorites
neutral · AI labelView post →The Rundown remains, in my opinion, one of the best Dwayne Johnson movies, an incredible Walken movie, and an all-around underrated classic.
positive · AI labelView post →Watching both #TheRunDown and #Fallout this week. I'd say we're at #TwinPeak #KyleMacLachlan right now! Heh... #TwinPeaks
neutral · AI labelView post →I know Gail is Gailing and the people in the replies are riding the Gail Train, but speaking on the level, this is one of my favorite tropes, and is why I like the movie The Rundown (though how the thugs don't predict Dwayne Johnson knows how to throw down is ridiculous).
positive · AI labelView post →I am going to become the Joker…. Netflix, if you’re gonna show the “Welcome to the Jungle” version, don’t label it “The Rundown”!
neutral · AI labelView post →Hilariously enough, I also saw that movie in the theater, the same afternoon after I had seen Dirty Pretty Things. Two very different cinematic experiences, no doubt. 😄 But The Rundown was much more delightfully funny than what I was anticipating, which was stupidity.
positive · AI labelView post →I swear the last movie he was even vaguely decent in was The Rundown (though I admittedly haven’t seen him in much). Although he should also have been sent to Tartarus for his Hercules movie. That was dreadful.
positive · AI labelView post →They can just remake The Rundown!
neutral · AI labelView post →The Rundown was FUNNY. Sean Willian Scott is FUNNY. My kids love that movie so much
positive · AI labelView post →Jumped right into the AI chatter coming out of Meta Connect and Gareth Edward’s #TheCreator plus what does Sony do now that Jim Ryan is moving on? I have an idea… THE CREATOR Movie Review / META CONNECT / SONY CHANGES - The Rundown - Electric Playground youtu.be/Nr2lyVbl5vQ
neutral · AI labelView post →Ah man. Remember when Peter Berg directed fun movies like The Rundown & Hancock? Really went into a nose dive with that Battleship movie.
positive · AI labelView post →Wait, did they call "The Rundown" "Welcome to the Jungle" in the UK‽ Also, I unironically love that movie and would be lying if I said I don't have many phrases I use in life to this day that come from that flick. And it is a flick. Not a film, not a movie, but a flick, and that's perfectly fine.
positive · AI labelView post →Does anyone remember the movie “The Rundown” when they talk about something that swims up your “pito”? That is this bacteria. Also, shaving before swimming can cause abrasions and openings for this bacteria.
neutral · AI labelView post →Even the trans sibling gave me shit about being so helpless and referenced the movie The Rundown and that I need to show dominance.
neutral · AI labelView post →Wrong, it's his best performance since The Rundown, a movie I adore.
positive · AI labelView post →Happy 47th Birthday To Rosario Dawson Rosario Isabel Dawson (Born May 9, 1979) Is An American Actress. She Made Her Feature-Film Debut In The 1995 Independent Drama Kids. Her Subsequent Film Roles Include He Got Game (1998), Josie And The Pussycats (2001), Men In Black II (2002), The Rundown (2003),
neutral · AI labelView post →This stray thought brought to you by realizing SOUTHLAND TALES was their second film together after THE RUNDOWN was a modest critical and financial hit that showcased fun chemistry between the two of them.
neutral · AI labelView post →He was good in the Smashing Machine at least. Really good. It sucks that we never got like 3 sequels to The Rundown. Genuinely fun movie and the closest thing to an Uncharted film we'll get
positive · AI labelView post →The Rock and Stiffler's movie "The Rundown" was only really worth watching just for Ernie Reyes Jr.'s big fight scene too.
neutral · AI labelView post →For a second, I thought this was some weird meme about the movie "The Rundown"
neutral · AI labelView post →I love The Rundown. What a fun movie this is. I'll have to get it on 4K at some point. "Have fun!" medium.com/@robertworkm...
