HHH
Attention all guys: This one's for you. Jam-packed with fight scenes, scantily clad ladies and all the important wrestling moves, "The Scorpion King" is guaranteed to make the men swoon. Don't fear though, ladies, The Rock's muscles and die-for-his-lady attitude equal that of any good Harlequin.
The movie may not make any socially conscious statements, but it's a great date flick. Even though he struggles at some points, The Rock puts a great deal of passion into his character, and there were enough corny one-liners to make me chuckle out loud. I didn't feel all that enlightened when I left, but I definitely had a good time.
Bare Bones Recommendation: Grab your favorite guy and head to the movies (Trust me, he'll love it.). If you're low on cash, definitely rent the movie when it hits the new release section.
