Has Dolph ever had a box office hit?


Not counting films like The Expendables, has he ever had a hit film that he headlined?


Where does fantasy end and reality begin?

Really, it's part of the fun of the actor. Finding movies he's been in that you've never heard about. Tragically, he actually CAN act once in a while compared to the A-listers.

Bad timing mostly. The guy's had extremely bad luck with that. The action genre collapsed just when he was gaining traction. Also he made some bad choices and didn't focus enough on strategically planning out his career. He also had two kids and decided to concentrate on raising them so he moved to Spain for ten years and missed out on a lot because of that. He got pigeonholed into the action dude compartment and since the genre moved out of theaters and onto DTV he followed because that's were the fan base was.

He killed it as the Street Preacher in Johnny Pneumonic. He was the best thing in the movie.
