Skyscraper
is a dumb fun action movie with a slow start. This movie is about a former FBI
agent who must save his family from a fire in the world’s tallest building.
Dwayne Johnson gives a good performance. He carries this movie and is the only
reason any of this works. Neve Campbell gives an okay performance but has very
little to do. Roland Moller’s villain is laughable and way over the top. Chin
Han is completely wasted as the owner of the building. Director Rawson Thurber
does a good job directing, especially in any of the scenes involving heights.
The script is extremely dumb with almost every big action scene stolen from a
better movie. The visual effects are mostly really good though some of the fire
effects could be better. At 102 minutes the movie takes around thirty minutes
to get going and then it remains moderately entertaining. Overall Skyscraper
isn’t a very good movie, but for fans of Dwayne Johnson, it is worth a watch.
6.5/10
