John Cena is no Dwayne Johnson ( aka The Stone )


This movie was terrible.

I didn't think it was terrible.

I thought it was predictable but not awful.

But agreed.
For whatever reason and I don't know why,
Jon Cena has no charisma on screen,
even though you know he is likable.

Yeah, the movie is a lot of fun to watch with kids. But we can clearly see his acting skills are not on par with the multi-talented Johnson. He feels too formal all the time and needs to breathe more and loosen up. I don't think he can change that, however. I also saw him in Bumblebee on the same night and he is far more comfy there as a serious army officer.
