Review of Walking Tall (1973) by Anthony S — 17 Jan 2010
If you are looking for fight scenes featuring Dwayne Johnson you will find a few of them here. I think Dwayne Johnson is actually a rather good actor and he wants to keep moving as far away from wrestling as possible, unfortunately for me this is not one of his better movies.
The film starts with Dwayne coming home from the army to discover his home town which is now full of crime and corruption, not a very original story line... Anyway Dwayne decides his town should take no more of this crap and goes on a rampage with his bit of 2x4 lumber.
The best part of the film is the fight scene in the lumber mill at the end when he has final got to the head honcho and old friend who is played by Neal McDonough but I found the film to be missing something, it had lots of different elements but never enough of one, I would have just liked to see maybe one more fight scene.
