Every Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson movie, ranked
So many muscles, so many action films
29. The Tooth Fairy (2010)
Watch Now: /
Very large adult man Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is transformed into the tooth fairy with results about as fun as an actual trip to the dentist (this bad joke is better than this entire movie).

28. Doom (2005)
Watch Now: /
One of Johnson’s worst box office showings of all time is also fittingly one of his worst movies. It’s an adaptation of the video game "Doom," which has a first-person fight scene that’s more sickening than the film’s gratuitous violence.

27. Planet 51 (2009)
Watch Now: /
In his first animated feature, "Planet 51" suffers for a number of reasons, including a distinct lack of Johnson’s real-life muscles.

26. Baywatch (2017)
Watch Now: /
A rare flop for Johnson in his recent career, Baywatch was a childish reboot of the campy TV show that no one needed. Sure, this could have been listed dead last, but who doesn’t like watching Johnson, Zac Efron, and the rest of this cast run around in swimwear?

25. Walking Tall (2004)
Watch Now: /
It was Dwayne’s fourth movie ever, and it's one in which he does things that are way out of the legal boundaries of a small-town sheriff.

24. G.I. Joe: Retaliation (2013)
Watch Now:
Believe it or not, there have actually been two live action films made based on the G.I. Joe toys in the last decade. What’s more impressive is the second stars Dwayne, Bruce Willis, and Channing Tatum. Unfortunately, it does not include those brilliant from the early 2000s.

23. Be Cool (2005)
Watch Now: /
You'll notice that Johnson rarely wears a hairpiece in most of his movies. But, of the few times he does, his hair in "Be Cool" is by far the best.

22. The Game Plan (2007)
Watch Now: /
In nearly all of Johnson's roles, he plays an athlete, soldier, driver, law enforcement, or some sort of mythical hero/villain. "The Game Plan" marks the actor’s third movie from 2006-2007 in which he plays a football player.
PHOTO: Disney
21. Race to Witch Mountain (2009)
Watch Now: /
Johnson is just your regular, everyday Las Vegas cab driver who picks up a couple of young aliens and dragged into a wild adventure to retrieve their spaceship.

20. Faster (2010)
Watch Now: /
This is actually not part of the "Fast and the Furious" franchise.
PHOTO: TriStar Pictures
19. Journey 2: The Mysterious Island (2012)
Watch Now: /
This sequel-ish to "Journey to the Center of the Earth" was a short-lived attempt to create some sort of Jules Verne cinematic universe.
PHOTO: New Line
18. Gridiron Gang (2006)
Watch Now: /
The Rock and Xzibit use football to rehabilitate a bunch of troubled teens.
PHOTO: Columbia Pictures
17. San Andreas (2015)
Watch Now: /
An apocalyptic earthquake along the San Andreas fault basically destroys all of California.
PHOTO: New Line
16. Pain & Gain (2013)
Watch Now: /
Surprisingly, this is not a Michael Bay documentary about Dwayne Johnson and Mark Wahlberg’s lives.
PHOTO: Paramount Pictures
15. Get Smart (2008)
Watch Now: /
In this reboot of the beloved Mel Brooks and Buck Henry TV series, Dwayne Johnson is Agent 23, who absolutely would not be in a hypothetical "Get Smart 2."
PHOTO: Warner Bros.
14. Snitch (2013)
Watch Now: /
The tagline for "Snitch" is “Justice on his terms,” which could be the tagline for 99 percent of Johnson’s movies.
PHOTO: Summit Entertainment
13. Hercules (2014)
Watch Now: /
For anyone who really just wants to see The Rock shirtless and killing folks, "Hercules" is the movie for you. But, if anyone is a modern-day son of Zeus, it might as well be Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.
PHOTO: Paramount Pictures
12. The Mummy Returns (2001)
Watch Now: /
As the trailer teased, “a force more powerful than any the world has ever known is about to be unleashed.” Little did producers of "The Mummy Returns" know, they were doing just that by releasing The Rock into the world in his first film appearance as The Scorpion King.

11. The Scorpion King (2002)
Watch Now: /
Here it is, Johnson's first-ever starring role, back when he was still billed as The Rock. A spin-off of the "Mummy" franchise (), our dude proved he had what it takes to anchor a big-budget Hollywood production. And the rest is history.
PHOTO: Universal Pictures
10. Southland Tales (2007)
Watch Now: /
Upon its initial release, "Southland Tales" confused critics—even star Justin Timberlake . Though this follow-up to "Donnie Darko" from director Richard Kelly was initially booed at Cannes, it has since .
PHOTO: Universal Pictures
9. The Other Guys (2010)
Watch Now: /
Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg are the titular other guys opposite Johnson and Samuel L. Jackson’s cool cop duo. For anyone hoping to see a movie where Johnson and Jackson co-star in some sort of "Bad Boys" type situation, this is not that movie—but still fun nonetheless.
PHOTO: Columbia Pictures
8. The Fate of the Furious (2017)
Watch Now: /
Now we enter the stretch of this Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson movie ranking that becomes a ranking within a ranking of the last four "Fast and the Furious" movies. The worst of these is "Fate of the Furious," otherwise known as Fast 8, which was more exciting for its off-screen muscular guy feud between Johnson and Vin Diesel.
PHOTO: Universal Pictures
7. Fast & Furious 6 (2013)
Watch Now: /
This is the one where Dom’s crew basically becomes spies to help Hobbs take down Ortiz—who did not die five movies earlier, and actually has amnesia.
PHOTO: Universal Pictures
6. The Rundown (2003)
Watch Now: /
Let’s take a break from the "Fast" movies to include "The Rundown," which is an underrated buddy flick from Johnson’s early career. Johnson gets into an interesting situation with an angry monkey and Christopher Walken is the villain!
PHOTO: Columbia Pictures
5. Central Intelligence (2016)
Watch Now: /
It’s absolutely worth putting "Central Intelligence" this high, mostly for the film’s ability to transform The Rock in to an extremely obese high school nerd. Plus, the whole revenge fantasy of him going to his high school reunion looking like The Rock as we know him.
PHOTO: Universal Pictures
4. Fast Five (2011)
Watch Now: /
Back to the "Fast" franchise. Since street racing had become boring in five movies, Dom and Co. are now a professional heist crew that are being hunted down by DSS Agent Luke Hobbs in Johnson’s first appearance in the movie series.
PHOTO: Universal Pictures
3. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017)
Watch Now: /
More than two decades after the original, the "Jumanji" title returns with a sequel in a time when board games have been largely forgotten. Can this franchise still hold up? Will anyone remember or care about this Robin Williams adventure classic? It turns out the answer to all of these questions is yes. In a movie that perfectly picks up where the '90s one left off, "Jumanji" does everything a good Johnson movie should, with The Rock as a sensitive and sweet giant supported by the hilarious cast of Jack Black, Kevin Hart, and Karen Gillan.
PHOTO: Radar Pictures
2. Furious 7 (2015)
Watch Now: /
Though Johnson’s Hobbs is recovering in the hospital after a fight with Jason Statham’s Deckard Shaw for most of this movie, "Furious 7" takes a deserving place near the top of this list for the most The Rock moment of all time. Hobbs breaks out of the hospital, steals an ambulance, and jumps it off an overpass to collide with a drone that’s chasing the team. Hobbs is fine of course—he kicks out the windshield of the ambulance, picks up a minigun and says, “I am the cavalry.” Oh yeah, then he takes on an enemy helicopter and saves the day by shooting a bag of grenades hanging from the helicopter from a 100 yards away with a pistol. It would be completely unrealistic if it were anyone but Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
PHOTO: Universal Pictures
1. Moana (2016)
Watch Now: /
At first glance, an animated Disney movie might not seem the most fitting choice to be named Dwayne Johnson’s best movie, but this film is certainly the closest one to the actor’s heart. "Moana" is inspired by Johnson’s own Polynesian heritage, and he based his character, Maui, on his grandfather, a Samoan high chief. It perfectly captures Johnson’s family-friendly, sensitive-giant essence—especially , "I have never cried consistently... through a movie more than I have with this movie.” The titular heroine, Johnson said, reminds him of his own daughter, who is “ambitious and has a really strong point of view.”
