Based on the television series
Cast: Dwayne Johnson, Jason Momoa, Glen Powell, Wesley Snipes, Eiza Gonzalez, Gabrielle Union, Evan Alex, Ed Begley Jr.

Reaction: It was just Dwayne Johnson's second on-screen role for LRF (he voiced Steve in The Banded Ants trilogy previously), after AGOS: A Game of Survival. This film obviously performed much better than that film at the box office.


"The Fall Guy is an old school action film with an old school mentality. Jon Favreau handles the action well in the director's chair, and the lead role plays to Dwayne Johnson's strengths as a performer." - Perry Manson, CinemaBlend.com


"Writer Chad Taylor showed his ability to write action-comedy with the Booster Gold series, so it's no surprise that The Fall Guy delivers on both the action and comedy fronts." - Michael Carthage, Associated Press


"While Dwayne Johnson is good in the lead role, Jason Momoa honestly seems too likable for the role of the film's villain.  And given the villain's deeds, the film seems to have some difficulty deciding how serious it wants to be with its action and how funny it wants to be with its comedy." - Manny Duncan, San Antonio Express-News

Rated PG-13 for intense action violence, some sexual content, language and thematic material.
