The GOAT is back & DDL doesn't disappoint in #Anemone, giving another tour-de-force showing.

The film itself shows potential for debut director Ronan Day-Lewis, but some rookie mistakes keep it from greatness:

I'm going to be on the higher-end on #TheSmashingMachine.

A more vibes-based film than I anticipated, but I was personally wow-ed by how much "The Rock" was able to embody and get me to care about Mark Kerr's arc:
