I like the Rock as an actor, Rundown was goos as well as Walking Tall, I have not seen the Longshot or Doom movies yet, I have seen all of the others. I liked his performance in Be Cool, very funny scenes and the only movies that could have been better iMO were the mummy movies he was in.

I like The Rock as an actor. he is much better than I expected and I think he has a broader range than he is credited for. He is excellent at comedy, which is difficult. I bought The Rundown, I thought it was that much fun.
I think some of his movie choices might be dictacted by his contract with the WWE. They produced Walking Tall. It wasn't a bad movie, IMO. It wasn't anything new or terribly exciting, but I think he made it better than the script.
Keep in mind, he goes by "The Rock" in the movies. That is trademarked by the WWE, I believe. I don't think he will ever become huge, but I think he will be popular. I think the age of the Box Office Action Star are behind us. At least for a while. I think special effects have become the new action star, what with The Matrix and Star Wars technology making non-action actors look incredible.

I like the Rock. I like his movies and especially his "Rock" persona on the WWF. I agree that the days of the box offics action star are well behind us, and I also agree that anyone could have been put into any of the roles he has played, but, to me, the Rock brings something a little more special to the table. He can sing, he's got moves, he can act, and he's a good lookin LARGE man. I'm not an action hero movie junkie, but I think he definitely has the potential to be the next big action hero star and more.
That said, I'm totally looking forward to seeing him in DOOM!

Everything about him, his arrogance, his pinhead, his unnaturally large teeth, his grotesquely arched eyebrows, his attitude, his strange resemblance to a cross between Conan O'Brian and a mutant rodent...I can't say anything else. I'll get a mite bit upset.
