'Snitch' is Far from Rock-Solid

The Rock turns into a Snitch in his latest film about what a father would do to save his son.

Editor's Note: "Snitch" is showing at Cherokee 16 Cinemas in Towne Lake and at Carmike RiverStone 15 Cinemas in Canton.  Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson plays a father whose estranged son is framed on a drug-dealing charge in "Snitch." With his son facing a hefty sentence, The Rock pleads with the U.S. Attorney (played by Susan Sarandon). He soon learns that the only way to get his son's time reduced is to help them find a bigger fish in the drug world. As you might guess, The Rock does just about anything to save his son. You'll be surprised to know that Johnson does more acting and less action in this movie. Nice try Rock…but the film seeks to make a statement about the futility of the war on drugs, only to take a back seat to its thriller …
