25 Biggest WTF Moments From 2016 Movies

18. Fat Rock - Central Intelligence

ant man giant
Warner Bros.

The buddy action comedy opens with a flashback to 1996, when Robbie Wheirdicht (Dwayne Johnson) is an overweight high schooler, who gets caught singing En Vogue's hit song "My Lovin' (You're Never Gonna Get It)" while showering.

A group of bullies pull Robbie out of the shower and hurl him into the gym, where a presentation is taking place to honour Calvin "The Golden Jet" Joyner (Kevin Hart). Robbie slides across the gym's floor in the nude, as the assembly laughs at him, except for Calvin, who gives him his jacket to wear.

The scene itself is odd enough, but what clinches the WTF factor is seeing The Rock's face pasted onto the body of a fat teenager. It's hilarious, but also extremely creepy, because the CGI isn't quite good enough to be convincing, falling into the dreaded uncanny valley.
