A solid effort from Johnson and another sign that Waugh is a filmmaker to watch out for."
ges-sa.co.za | Snitch tells the story of a father (Dwayne Johnson) who agrees to go under cover for the American Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) in order to get his son out of jail. This movie is based on a true story and real life events.
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has been a busy boy lately. With numerous films coming out this year with his name in the headline, could he just be churning them out regardless of content? Or has he made his choices wisely? Let's have a look.
I thought the plot was so lame and that dude not convincing as a shot caller..the initial intro between the rock and omar if he was a real crim hed never get that deep with someone so quick on a deal just no realism thats just never going to happn with someone whos supposed to be versed in a life of crime
Jeremy of We Got This Covered wrote, "Ric Roman Waugh’s latest drama Snitch touches up on the hot topic of prison sentences related to drug busts. The problem with Snitch is it features action star Dwayne Johnson in a film with very little action. Snitch is an over-dramatic procedural drama that attempts to lay it on heavy with its over-acting and cookie-cutter characters that add up to zilch. The film works fine for straight-to-DVD material, but never overcomes its numerous problems to make it worth seeking out in a theater or paying full price for."
