Movie Review

Grade: C+ The Rock kicks, smashes and shoots his way to victory in the "slightly true" story called Walking Tall, a movie based on the exploits of one Sheriff Buford Pusser. In this remake of the 1973 hit, Pusser has been replaced by character Chris Vaughn, character back stories have been replaced with action and plot has been replaced with... well, action. This movie proves that action may be enough. Read the full movie review
