Évaluation de amirali-67780
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has done a lot in his career-action blockbusters, comedies, even family films-but nothing prepared me for the raw, unfiltered power of The Smashing Machine. For me, this movie isn't just about Mark Kerr's story. It's about Johnson finally proving himself as one of the great actors of his generation. Hence, my personal title: Redemption of the Rock!
From the very first frame, Benny Safdie's direction pulls you into a world of blood, sweat, and broken dreams. The fight sequences are brutal yet beautiful, shot on grainy 16mm film that makes you feel like you're inside the cage. But the real fight here isn't against an opponent-it's Kerr battling himself, his addictions, and the weight of expectations.
Johnson completely disappears into the role. The prosthetics, the physicality, the mannerisms-he is unrecognizable. More importantly, he lets go of the Hollywood superhero image and embraces vulnerability. There are moments where you can see the pain in his eyes, the quiet collapse of a man who seems unstoppable in the ring but fragile in his own home. This is acting on a whole new level.
Emily Blunt also deserves massive credit. As Dawn Staples, she balances compassion with exhaustion, embodying the emotional toll of living with someone who can destroy himself as quickly as he destroys opponents. Their chemistry is heartbreaking, messy, and utterly real.
The audience at Venice gave the film a 15-minute standing ovation, and I can see why. It's not just a sports movie-it's a tragedy, a redemption story, and an exploration of what it means to be human when your identity is tied to strength. For me, this is the role that redeems Johnson as more than just a global superstar. It's his proof that he's an actor who can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the best.
The Smashing Machine isn't just a film-it's an experience. Brutal, honest, and unforgettable. If you only know Johnson as "The Rock," prepare to have your perspective shattered. 10/10.
