The Rock’s core fan base may have a problem adding the film to their permanent collection.
The miscast Rock never comes close to matching Joe Don Baker’s sweaty, ungainly, force-of-nature hick heroism.
As a vehicle for Dwayne Johnson’s wrestler alter ego, the essential action drive of the film is pure cotton candy.
If not handsomely produced, the features on this Scorpion King DVD edition are nonetheless expansive.
Here’s something pointless but kind of fun nonetheless.
