Weekly Poster: International Poster For Dwayne Johnson’s ‘Faster’

One of the g0od-looking upcoming actioners this year include Dwayne Johnson’s short-lived return back to action movies with ‘Faster’. Too bad he’s following that up with a sequel to ‘Journey to the Center of the Earth’. But the movie looks predictable but pretty compelling. The U.S. poster for the movie just showed a muscular hand. For this international poster, the star is the sell.

A stint in prison usually has one of two effects on a man – it either breaks him down or makes him stronger. For Driver (Dwayne Johnson), a 10-year sentence proved the latter. His strength was not just fueled by time, but also by a hunger to avenge the murder of his brother during the botched bank robbery that led to his own imprisonment. Untouchable on the ‘inside,’ he made plenty of enemies in prison – men who were counting the days until his release so they could exact their own revenge on the outside. Now, on the day of his release, he is hell-bent on reaping vengeance upon the four men responsible for his brother’s murder. With a list of names and addresses in hand, he sprints out of the prison gates and is immediately on his mission.

For a straight up revenge flick, it doesn’t seem to bring a new twist to the plot but Dwayne Johson always had a great screen presence in such kind of action flicks and can break or make this movie. Of course, the movie has to be some good too.

Nevertheless, I’m looking forward to seeing Johnson not babysit kids or fly around with wings for once.
