Every Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson Movie Ranked From Worst To Best
9. Central Intelligence
In much the same way that Johnson successfully took us back to a golden-age of disaster movies, Central Intelligence was a long-awaited return to the classic Buddy Cop genre that dominated the early 2000s. Lethal Weapon, Rush Hour, Blue Streak, National Security, I-Spy, Bad Company, Exit Wounds, Nothing To Lose, Half Past Dead, if I had all the time back I spent watching these things in my youth I could probably learn Mandarin fluently.
Surprisingly though, Central Intelligence was a far smarter and nuanced film than the genre had really seen before, with a strong anti-bullying message and a touching central relationship between Johnson and Hart. Don't worry though, they blow plenty of sh*t up as well.
