:tongue The Rundown - Review by Bdjuf

Here we go again, I went to see The Rundown (with the rock) yesterday

The story has an interesting plot, something I havent seen often before, its about a retrieval agent (goes and gets stuff for ppl, in exchange for money). He is told to do a specific thing in the brazilian jungle (I wont tell you what, cuz I will ruin the movie)
Anywho, he goes there to do it and complications arise, of course

The main thing I didnt like about the movie was the camera.
maybe it was because I was sitting too close, but I found that the camera angles changed too often, and things were faster than ordinary, giving you a headache. For example, if they want to show that the guy is holding a gun, they would show the gun, then half a second after the guy charging the gun, half a second after the bullet inside the gun, and its like your having a friggin epilepcy

so yeah, camera, I didnt like it, but it didnt ruin the movie for me

what I DID like about the movie, was NOT the action scenes (although they were pretty cool, no guns...) but the sense of humour in the movie! I found it to be a funny movie

in conclusion, the plot, combined with the good sense of humour, make this an overall GOOD movie, not great, not bad

I would recommend this movie to anyone who feels like watching the rock kick some ass and make you laugh
