Dwayne Johnson's whose star has shone strongly over the past few years, has become one of Hollywood's most active and box-office stars. The film is based on a classic video game with the same title

Rampage… a lot of bets a little profit
Commercial films are not necessarily as bad as some people think, but rather a collection of films that have no intellectual or dramatic depth. Their sole aim is to entertain the viewer by providing a dazzling and innovative visual experience based on an exciting story, which may be enhanced by other attractions such as comedy. , And when the film succeeded in achieving that equation that the viewer promises in advance became a good film… Did Rampage succeed in achieving it?
The answer is categorically “no.” The makers of Rampage have bet on a number of factors, but most of these bets have been misplaced and ended in failure.
Weak plot
Rampage's thriller triumphed at the expense of the plot, as the script was too weak and disconnected, and the plot was almost absent. The entire scenario was based on a “coincidence”, the purpose of which was to create an event that would ignite the conflict to allow as many scenes as possible. Motivation and excitement, forgetting that the degree of emotion of the recipient with these scenes is primarily related to the degree of his relationship with the characters and their interaction with the event, which is impossible to achieve through a very weak superficial plot does not pay the slightest attention to the presentation of the characters, or sufficiently prepare for the main turning point, or to give as much Convenient Hand rather than follow the path of a very simple story end information since its inception.
Between comedy and underrated
Comedy comes second among the set of factors that the film bet on attracting scenes and achieve pleasure, but the comedy in the film Rampage came to the events, and characterized by a lot of exaggeration and fabrication, as the comedy in general did not witness the slightest degree of innovation and innovation, in addition to the disappearance The stand-up comedy is almost although the nature of the film allowed a lot of it.
Representative performance
The lack of dramatic depth is one of the main features of various businesses, and therefore its characters are usually monolithic, ie tend to be superficial and do not carry any deep psychological dimension and without clear backgrounds, and therefore does not allow the actors a large space for creativity and highlight their artistic abilities, But at the same time, they are required to do more to persuade the viewer to accept the reality of characters who are essentially semi-cartoon.
Conclusion and my opinion in the film
Rampage, however, did not promise much, but even failed to deliver on those few promises, it was worse than a hollow, superficial film. … We had wondered - after the release of Tomb Raider - about the secret of Hollywood's insistence on delivering movies based on video games despite its frequent failures, and all that Rampage did was make the question more urgent.
