WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE (2003)

PETER BERG

Plot

Beck is a reluctant bounty hunter sent deep into the Amazon to recover his boss's son, Travis. It soon turns out things are not as simple as Beck had hoped, Travis is close to uncovering a priceless treasure and the town's sadistic mining boss wants in on the action, as do the local resistance fighters. The rest of Welcome To The Jungle follows a well worn action format, but there's a lot of self depreciating wit, the comic strip violence comes thick and fast, and damn…The Rock makes a pretty amenable steroid enhanced alternative to his rather aged action peers.
