Well, I really don't see what the big brew-ha-ha is about The Rock being in TMR. I read a review of the movie today in my local paper, which stated that the real purpose of the movie was the prove that The Rock will be next summer's big action hero. WHATEVER! The man never even uttered a coherent word in the movie and got maybe seven minutes total screen time--and half of that was his CG face and nothing more! All he did was slice and dice and look Vaguely Menacing.

That's my two cents.

I saw TMR opening night [night before last] and although it isn't as good as the original [and what sequel ever is?] I liked it a lot because the film was still able to poke fun at itself as in the original. However, I felt bad for poor Jonathan because he didn't serve a real purpose. Music-wise, going in I though Jerry Goldsmith was still doing the score and was surpised to find out that Alan Silvestri composed it. I was pleasantly surprised with the score and how true he kept it to Goldsmith's original while simultaneously making it his own.
