\"\"\/Watched “Walking Tall<\/a>” on DVD. It is a good movie, but it is terribly late. If it was made 15-20 years ago, it would be one of the greatest hits somewhere along with “Commando<\/a>“. Seriously. It has everything a hit action needed 20 years ago: a special forces muscular soldier, a sexy girlfriend, small town, crooked sheriff, and a simple story built upon revenge. It was pretty difficult to do all of this right two decades ago, but now it is classics and they teach this stuff at school. So this movie is late.<\/p>\n

The only two things which are fresh here: The Rock<\/a> and photography. The Rock is not particularly interesting or anything. Camera on the other hand provided me for some satisfaction.<\/p>\n

Verdict: 5 out of 10. Pick it up if you are about to do some time travel. Otherwise, get something fresh.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
