Walking tall versus The Rundown

Which one did you think was better?

I loved both but I really enjoyed walking tall because it was based on a true story

Walking tall was actually decent, but the rundown was a sorry exscuse for a movie.

Walking Tall had more of a serious story. Whereas the Rundown was more of a cheap comedic action movie. I liked Walking Tall for being simple and not overdone.

i like walking tall because it was as u said tru story and involved normal poeple (ha.lets take this time to think of the rock in a normal crowd of poeple). i liked the rundown cuz it had at least some dry humor and the rock got his ass kicked by little guys. but walking tall hands down

It was a simple role. That's what I think the Rock should keep doing. He is not a bad actor, but certainly has had bad roles. In Walking Tall, he looks more human than barbarian looking. He should stay away from roles that are too super heroic type.

walking tall was a great movie, I love though in the rundown, when travis(seanne) has to pee and the rock is like pee, and has to pull his ziper down. Maybe that is just guy humor but it was funny.

Seriously, these movies star Dwayne Johnson as the main character...

You should all hang your heads in shame if you watched either of these movies before they came out on cable, because these weren't worth the cost of admission into the theatre, nor wre they worth the $4-5 dollars you'd pay to rent them at Blockbuster...

Walking Tall was barely over an hour long, too. My head is definately hung in shame.

I didn't say it was bad, I was complaining about the bang for the buck.

I would say that about most movies now a days. I mean 7-9 bucks a pop. That sucks anyways.

i liked both but i thought the Rundown was better. That may just be my love of comedy though. Rundown was funnier.

HAven't seen Walking Tall yet, but I liked The Rundown a lot, fun movie, and a bonus of Walken in the film.

Idiotic Question. The Rundown by far.

Walking Tall was horrible. The fights were retarded and the cameral angles during them were god awful. Plus, the Rock took on like 5 large security guards and yet he got his ass kicked by the pansy main bad guy. Btw, many of you seem to like it because it is based on a real story. The key here is "based on". Walking Tall had drama (come on, the Rock being serious?) and action (poorly executed). Very dull movie.

The Rundown, although not great, was pretty good in the sense that it had a little comedy and action. The action sequences were fun to watch because they were (intentionally) comical. Plus Christafer Walken was hillarious.
