The Rundown
Bulls, guns, whips, gold and one sacred cat.
When Travis, the mouthy son of a criminal, disappears in the Amazon in search of a treasured artifact, his father sends in Beck, who becomes Travis's rival for the affections of Mariana, a mysterious Brazilian woman. With his steely disposition, Beck is a man of few words -- but it takes him all the discipline he can muster to work with Travis to nab a tyrant who's after the same treasure.

Doesn't really hold up so well as back in the day. This was supposed to be the big break out action movie for The Rock and it's a decent watch although not as good as I remember when I first saw it. He's still young and not yet become the loudmouth douche political pawn he his today.
The acting is decent and most of the FX are good save for some shoddy cgi scenes, but it is 2008 so still not too bad. There are some
funny scenes and the action is over the top, loud and cartoonish. It's probably more of a 3.5 really but I rounded it up to 4. As for
woke, well it's the usual evil rich white man taking advantage of the good noble natives and the leader of the rebellion is female. Walken plays a good over the top villain and there are a few preachy scenes but nothing too bad in my opinion. If you've never seen it before and watching it for the first time the woke score probably goes up and the movie score goes down.
