Last week Becky and I decided to go see the new movie with John Cena called 12 Rounds, at the Kerasotes theater in Castle Rock, CO. The Fandango website at 12 Rounds describes the movie as follows.

WWE star John Cena headlines his sophomore action picture as a police officer whose wife is kidnapped in New Orleans. Daniel Kunka provides the script, with Deep Blue Sea’s Renny Harlin handling the directing duties for the 20-million-dollar Fox Atomic/WWE Films production. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, All Movie Guide…

The Review The Merry Gentleman movie
12 Rounds stars another professional wrestler turned movie star, John Cena, as an ordinary cop with amazing abilities.  His character finds himself at the wrong place at the wrong time and ends up busting a mass murderer by accident.  In the process of the arrest he accidentally gets the criminal’s girlfriend killed while trying to arrest them both.  It wasn’t really his fault, but the bad guy thinks he was responsible and is out for revenge.

12 Rounds is like a cross between a Bruce Willis Die Hard film and Speed, if you ever saw that one, with Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves.  There is plenty of action and excitement as you go on 12 Rounds of mayhem caused by the bad guy sending the cop on wild goose chases around the city to prevent potential disasters from taking place.

The movie has some great plot twists and it’s actually pretty exciting and not a bunch of sex or swearing in the film, just plenty of non-stop action.  We both thought it was pretty entertaining and although we didn’t know the actor from his wrestling career, he pulled off this character really well.

Becky and I both thought 12 Rounds was Worth The Trip and if you don’t get a chance to see it in the theater, be sure and put it on your rental list.  We both like action flicks, so this one lived up to its expectations.

John – *** Worth The Trip
