Doesn't look like anything unique. I get the impression that I've seen it before from watching the trailer.

Same here. It still looks like it will be worth watching.

Exactly. That's pretty much the point of action movies. Nothing new, just mindless fun.

I've thought that The Rock was the heir apparent to Stallone/Schwarzenegger/Willis/etc as America's "action movie superstar" ever since Walking Tall and The Rundown came out. Then he spent the last couple years making kiddie movies. It's good to see him back in an action movie.

this has been done over and over in many movies.

Synopsis

After 10 years in prison, Driver (Dwayne Johnson) has a singular focus - to avenge the murder of his brother during the botched bank robbery that led to his imprisonment..

Wait, so it's not a kids' movie? That's a new one.

Oh and fail on showing an entire round flying instead of just the bullet. LOL Hollywood.

"Synopsis
After 10 years in prison, Driver (Dwayne Johnson) has a singular focus - to avenge the murder of his brother during the botched bank robbery that led to his imprisonment. Now a free man with a deadly to-do list in hand, he’s finally on his mission...but with two men on his trail - a veteran cop (Billy Bob Thornton) just days from retirement, and a young egocentric hitman (Oliver Jackson-­Cohen) with a flair for the art of killing and a newfound worthy opponent. The hunter is also the hunted. It’s a do or die race to the list’s finish as the mystery surrounding his brother’s murder deepens, and new details emerge along the way hinting that Driver’s list may be incomplete."

If you like action-shoot them up movies, this sounds like a film to check out. I am going to wait until it hits HBO.

I know QuickTime has trailers so I went there. I saw the trailer on IGN's site.

/wonders why there is not a dedicated movie trailer thread

Hopefully never. He realized how retarded that shit is and got out of it for good.

Who watches that shit anyway?

Should be a fun movie. Like most of his stuff, it probably will have a weak story line, predictable plot, and mediocre acting...but still fun to watch.
