The Rock’s action movies have a way of giving you such an adrenaline rush that your heart is still racing long after you left the movie theater. After I saw San Andreas, I was driving home in such a panic, thinking any second now the earth was going to start quaking. Then I was wondering why I was driving towards it and not away from the epicenter that was featured in the film. At that point, I realized I was still on stable ground and then I was cursing him out for releasing a movie like that. Someone who was at the University of Miami for Hurricane Andrew should not be making disaster films that alums like me, who now live in LA, are going to see. So not over that DJ.
Anyways that was a few years ago, this year he has a new summer blockbuster film coming out. Another disaster film, but this one is about an Skyscraper on fire because the terrorists want something from inside of it. Something only DJ can get and they will hold his family hostage until he gets. I did not think that any movie could top The Towering Inferno, but this one might come pretty close.
I don’t know about you, but I will be there to see on July 13th. Although, this time I will make someone else do the driving. Preferably someone who does not live in a Skyscraper.
