After 10 years in prison, Driver (Dwayne Johnson) has a singular focus - to avenge the murder of his brother during the botched bank robbery that led to his imprisonment. Now a free man with a deadly to-do list in hand, he's finally on his mission...but with two men on his trail - a veteran cop (Billy Bob Thornton) just days from retirement, and a young egocentric hitman (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) with a flair for the art of killing and a newfound worthy opponent. The hunter is also the hunted. It's a do or die race to the list's finish as the mystery surrounding his brother's murder deepens, and new details emerge along the way hinting that Driver's list may be incomplete.This movie is exactly what you expect. They waste no time building up a story and just kind of throw it to you inbetween The Rock (you can try calling him Dwayne Johnson all you want - I ain't buying) knocking people off his payback list. Is it good? I wouldn't go that far. I'd be willing to say it's O.K. There definitely could have been A LOT more action than they had here and the big swerve towards the end could not have been less surprising if they tried. I really think that what holds this movie up is The Rock. This guy is just fun to watch. He always has been.
I wouldn't really recommend that people check this out. It's not really worth the trip to theaters or the money. I would wait for dvd or cable.
