The Rundown was released in 2003 and did decently. It made around 47 million domestically and around 80 million worldwide. The movie is about a bounty hunter who does one final job to retrieve his boss’s son from the Amazon where they wind up teaming up to find a lost treasure. The film stars Dwayne Johnson, Sean William Scott, Rosario Dawson, Christopher Walken, and Ewen Bremner.

I thought The Rundown was a fun action movie. This was one of Dwayne Johnson’s earlier movies. It was released a year after The Scorpion King. This also came at a time when Sean William Scott was most known for starring in the American Pie movies and seemed to be actively starring in movies. Dwayne Johnson and Sean William Scott had good chemistry. They played their parts well as did everyone else.

The movie is not too long. It’s just about right. There is a basic plot but nothing too complicated. It would have been a bit too tedious if it was any longer. The movie is fun but it’s nothing special. It’s fairly generic. The main cast plays typical roles of what they are known for. Christopher Walken is the main antagonist in the movie, and he pretty much does what Christopher Walken does. Dwayne Johnson played the role of action star well. Sean William Scott was essentially Stifler from the American Pie movies just in an action movie.

The Rundown is a good length and an easy watch. It has fun action scenes and there is good chemistry between the leads. It is not the greatest action movie but it’s not the worst either. It falls somewhere in the middle. It’s a cool movie to watch if there is any interest in seeing Dwayne Johnson’s early works.
