I watched this one this week on the plane back home from Toronto: The teenage son of a succesful businessman (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) is being set up by his best friend and gets arrested for drugs posession and trying to distribute it. To get his sentence reduced he has to work with the D.A. (Susan Sarandon) but he refuses, he doesn`t want to be a snitch himself. So, good father as he is, dad goes out to do the things for him that need to be done. A pretty OK drama/action flick with a cool part for The Rock that on the other hand is filled from the front to back with prejudice and cliché`s about, among other things, Mexicans and drug dealing negro`s. Not very special but not bad at all either. 6,5/10
