Simple reason. It costs to damn much to go to a movie(especially if you're a family) to be spending it on some shit like this. Especially when it will hit redbox in 2 months. Hell, I kept procrastinating on going to see A Quiet Place and by the time I realized it was out of theaters it was already coming to redbox and that was a good movie. Some shit like this will be out mid September at the latest.

I think Die Hard owes a great deal of its success to Alan Rickman's Hans Gruber. Having such a great villain who was both charismatic and genuinely interesting gave it an extra level that 99% of all action films don't have. Great writing and great characters beats great effects any day.

Both of them have Jumanji 3 green lit already. Seeing a star all the time gets annoying. Let us miss you once in awhile. Take a break.

That is not a fair comparison because of the amount of output from the Rock vs. Tom and RDJ are different. Let’s compare, shall we? From 2015 -2019, Tom Cruise will have done six movies in total. Only one came out a year except 2017 where it was American Made and The Mummy. Now we can say what we want about the quality of those movies, but they feel different. Robert Downey Jr, from 2015 - 2018 did one film a year where he reprised the Tony Stark character. He will do it again in 2019 and will play Doctor Dolittle. So, I don’t see why I would get sick of seeing them. In that same time span, The Rock will have done 11 movies, two WrestleManias, more episodes of his show, and a cameo in the shitty Jem and the Holograms movie. But if Robert Downey Jr and Tom Cruise had that kind of output than I would get sick of seeing them.

Honestly, I like the Rock. I've liked him since his wrestling days, the guy is charismatic as hell and can be entertaining as hell. The thing is, movies still need to be entertaining and still need to have something other movies don't have. Skyscraper had a all too familiar premise and a depressed looking Rock. Nobody wants to see the Rock looking sad or grimace.

It's not just the summer with too many blockbusters on top of each other nowadays, but around Christmas too, especially this year in December. There is both Mortal Engines and Spider-Man Into the Spider-Verse on the 14th, Mary Poppins Returns on the 19th, ant Alita Battle Angel, Bumblebee, Aquaman, Holmes & Watson, and Welcome to Marwen on the 21st. There is no way all of these movies are going to do well. And like Korey said, people don't really have breathing room when one or two blockbusters come out once a week, let alone on the same day, within the time-span of one week.

The main reason why the movie Bell is because the movie is in giving people what they want. The entire reason people like the rock, is because he is the rock. He's a massive man. He is the size and charisma level that most men wish they were. So we want to go see movies where can you dominate as The rock. We don't want to see Dwayne Johnson. We don't want the rock to play an average guy.

Having the name Dwayne Johnson I end up hearing from friends and randoms on the street about how well each and every movie of his does. This number 3 at the office sadly won't change that haha. Rocky will be alright. Everyone gets one...or a few..Nick Cage.

I remember seeing this trailer initially before the movie came out and I thought to myself ok he’s a one-legged man jumping across buildings. I just felt like Hollywood is like “this is too close to this movie so let’s do it but there’s a catch he has one leg”. It’s like they ran out of stuff for him to do.

I think The Rock needs to minimize. Do something smaller with smaller stakes and more intimate action scenes. Something akin to a John Wick or the first Terminator movie. Something smaller in scale, with more focused man v man action set pieces.

I was told that parents were disappointed because they took their kids to the movies to be entertained and distracted but ended up having to console their scared kids. I have been told by parents that it was not a good film to watch with their kids; especially kids who are scared of heights. It's a real thing/fear.

Not to take anything away from Arnie (he brings his own brand of charisma no easily replicated) but this really shows that he was very fortunate to come up around the same time as guys like Cameron and Verhoeven, who were on their creative prime during the 80's/90's. Don't get me wrong, there are very creative directors/writers around now as well. Unfortunately, all their projects don't require a mountain of a guy to be the main character. Also, the business has changed quite a bit. Not that he is doing too bad now but I've always said that the Rock came up 1-2 decades too late. Imagine him now but during the 80s or 90s.

That scene where The Rock jumps onto the window of the skyscraper wasn't even an intense thing and it didn't even made me ask "Woah is he even gonna survive that jump? Is he gonna make it???" because come on, it's The Rock. The producers are too chicken to kill him off so of course he's gonna survive that jump, so its not intense or exciting tbh. It's like Martin said, no matter how many obstacles he goes through he's gonna end up being fine and dandy.

The Rock never makes me want to see any movie he's in. I just see it on Netflix and even then I'm pausing looking at other movies. The Rock is just boring to me.

There’s 2 reasons why people go to the movies. 1 people can’t wait until it come’s out of blu-ray because they’re so EXCITED! 2 they’re out with friends and or date and want something to do.. Skyscraper fit’s none of those categories.
