Primatologist Davis Okoye shares an unshakable bond with George, an extraordinarily intelligent, silverback gorilla that's been in his care since birth. When a rogue genetic experiment goes wrong, it causes George, a wolf and a reptile to grow to a monstrous size. As the mutated beasts embark on a path of destruction, Okoye teams up with a discredited genetic engineer and the military to secure an antidote and prevent a global catastrophe.
Rampage isn't as fun as its source material, but the movie's sheer button-mashing abandon might satisfy audiences in the mood for a brainless blockbuster.

| 245012 | Keith Garlington | Keith & the Movies | Rotten | 1.5/5 | 2022-08-24T22:23:12.000Z | 2022-08-24 22:23:12 | The bulk of the problems with “Rampage” lie with the script. Four writers are credited (or to blame, depending on your perspective) with putting this hodgepodge together. |
| 245013 | Brian Eggert | Deep Focus Review | Rotten | 0.5/4 | 2022-03-14T03:36:55.000Z | 2022-03-14 03:36:55 | Neither deliciously campy nor elevating the material, Rampage feels like it checks every box mandated by the studio's publicity department, while leaving everything onscreen achingly boring, unless you're an 8-year-old boy. |
| 245014 | Kip Mooney | College Movie Review | Rotten | C+ | 2021-08-21T04:01:05.000Z | 2021-08-21 04:01:05 | The dialogue usually follows a pattern of passable human conversation, super-clunky exposition, then a B-minus quip. |
| 245015 | Nicholas Oon | Maximum Hype (YouTube) | Fresh | 6.7/10 | 2021-08-14T10:00:10.000Z | 2021-08-14 10:00:10 | The movie serves its purpose, and it knows exactly what it wants to be: a mess of bodies and buildings with huge monsters...and the Rock. |
| 245016 | Carolyn Hinds | Black Girl Nerds | Rotten | — | 2021-07-30T23:13:23.000Z | 2021-07-30 23:13:23 | The thing about Rampage is that while there is a fair amount of action, it's interspersed with sub-plots that don't really add anything to the story and has quite a few typical character clichés. |
| 245017 | Richard Crouse | Richard Crouse | Rotten | 2/5 | 2021-03-04T16:11:41.000Z | 2021-03-04 16:11:41 | The kind of big budget b-movie where it takes four credited writers to come up with bon mots like, 'I can't believe we survived that,' and 'Thank you for saving the world.' |
| 245018 | Alix Turner | Ready Steady Cut | Fresh | 3/5 | 2021-01-30T18:21:02.000Z | 2021-01-30 18:21:02 | Rampage is a riot. The roars, the destruction, the explosions, the huge jaws, and the stern brows. |

If you think too hard, the experience will be tainted...I had a good time because I expected fun nonsense. |

In that case, to quote The Rock, this movie is a "500-pound bag of monkey crap." |
| 245025 | Tom Beasley | Flickering Myth | Rotten | 2/5 | 2020-08-14T15:01:11.000Z | 2020-08-14 15:01:11 | There are some ropey moments that stick out like a sore thumb, and the stabs at emotion are utterly useless. |

| 245030 | Steven Prokopy | Third Coast Review | Fresh | — | 2020-06-09T20:11:04.000Z | 2020-06-09 20:11:04 | It's undeniably entertaining and moves like a locomotive let off the tracks. There's not a lot of time to get deep or explore the characters, but does anyone really want that from a Dwayne Johnson movie? |
| 245031 | Dan Scully | Cinema76 | Fresh | — | 2020-03-20T22:01:43.000Z | 2020-03-20 22:01:43 | As far as cinematic adaptations of video games go, Rampage is one of the better ones. |

| 245034 | Rhys Tarling | Isolated Nation | Rotten | — | 2019-09-30T19:51:19.000Z | 2019-09-30 19:51:19 | It's completely without a pulse, despite the initial appeal of the Rock and his big mutant ape buddy George fighting other skyscraper sized beasties... This should've been a layup. It's not. It's a big fat expensive miss. |
| 245035 | Chris Sawin | Slickster Magazine | Fresh | 3/5 | 2019-09-02T12:50:13.000Z | 2019-09-02 12:50:13 | Rampage is pure unfiltered cheese and the type of big budget B-movie trash that would kill as a late night feature on cable television. Rampage isn't really a work of art, but it is popcorn entertainment at its most disastrous. |
| 245036 | Noah Berlatsky | NBC News THINK | Rotten | — | 2019-08-29T17:31:15.000Z | 2019-08-29 17:31:15 | "Rampage" is a goofy, mediocre film. |

| 245044 | Peter Gray | This is Film | Fresh | — | 2019-05-04T04:50:49.000Z | 2019-05-04 04:50:49 | Rampage was never going to be a movie one would take seriously, and director [Brad] Peyton and the unstoppable charisma that is the [Dwayne] Johnson know their brand and how to work it accordingly. |

| 245080 | Rendy Jones | Rendy Reviews | Rotten | 2/5 | 2018-08-25T16:55:17.000Z | 2018-08-25 16:55:17 | Fails to come close to being a solid recommendation due to the convoluted plot and inconsistency of tones. |
| 245081 | Sarah Gopaul | Digital Journal | Fresh | — | 2018-08-24T18:11:28.000Z | 2018-08-24 18:11:28 | No one goes to this movie expecting depth or realism; it promises humongous beasts, action and "The Rock", and it delivers. |
| 245082 | Tom Santilli | AXS.com | Fresh | B- | 2018-08-14T15:02:20.000Z | 2018-08-14 15:02:20 | If you go into a movie called "Rampage" that stars Dwayne Johnson, you pretty much know what to expect...and this movie does a fairly good job of meeting that low-bar. |
| 245083 | Andrew Pollard | Starburst | Fresh | 8/10 | 2018-08-07T18:50:54.000Z | 2018-08-07 18:50:54 | All-out destruction? Check. Muscles, guns, and explosions? Check. Slimy villains? Check. Cheesy dialogue? Check. Giant-ass monsters? Triple check! |
| 245084 | Chelsea Phillips-Carr | Scene Creek | Fresh | 3.5/5 | 2018-07-19T17:32:05.000Z | 2018-07-19 17:32:05 | In sum, Rampage is cutting to the chase: presenting something easy to digest and fun, without anything to make you stop and think. |
| 245085 | Jeff Beck | The Blu Spot | Rotten | 2.5/5 | 2018-07-16T21:00:49.000Z | 2018-07-16 21:00:49 | Even with the always-charismatic Dwayne Johnson in the lead, Rampage can't help but be an action-filled mess that suffers from a rather silly plot and a tedious, overblown climax. |
| 245086 | Peter Howell | Toronto Star | Fresh | 2.5/4 | 2018-07-12T20:11:04.000Z | 2018-07-12 20:11:04 | It's not a good film; it's actually a supremely silly one. But with Dwayne Johnson once again flexing his pecs in the cause of popcorn distraction, it's not entirely bereft of amusements, either. |
| 245087 | Felix Vasquez Jr. | Cinema Crazed | Fresh | — | 2018-07-12T05:00:29.000Z | 2018-07-12 05:00:29 | It's not a stellar bit cinema by any means, but I imagine it'll allow for some fun late night screenings on basic cable in the next few years. |
| 245088 | Aisha Jordan | Black Nerd Problems | Fresh | — | 2018-06-14T17:10:59.000Z | 2018-06-14 17:10:59 | From the - 'wait how did he get there so fast?' moments, to the cringe and chuckle-worthy one-liners, you know this movie came to play. |
| 245089 | Maria Sherman | Jezebel | Rotten | — | 2018-06-12T23:35:28.000Z | 2018-06-12 23:35:28 | So if you can distill enjoyment from its overwhelming How is this not parody? tackiness, then you, too, will get something kick-adjacent outta Rampage. If not, well, at least The Rock's hot. |
| 245090 | David Nusair | Reel Film Reviews | Fresh | 3.5/4 | 2018-05-29T14:45:11.000Z | 2018-05-29 14:45:11 | Rampage opens with a stunningly entertaining pre-credits sequence that feels like the climax of an entirely different movie... |
| 245091 | Meg Downey | CBR | Fresh | — | 2018-05-18T18:18:45.000Z | 2018-05-18 18:18:45 | It's a surprising show of self-awareness in a genre where restraint is generally the enemy. |
| 245092 | Jim Lane | Sacramento News & Review | Fresh | 3/5 | 2018-05-15T19:31:09.000Z | 2018-05-15 19:31:09 | This videogame-inspired folderol is just as insane as it sounds, but it's enjoyable in its mechanical, greedy-eyes-on-the-boxoffice way. |
| 245093 | Sarah Ward | ArtsHub | Fresh | 2.5/5 | 2018-05-03T23:35:56.000Z | 2018-05-03 23:35:56 | It's the rollicking barrage its title intimates, yet amounts to merely passable entertainment; a minor critter in its habitat, rather than a behemoth. |
| 245094 | Jim Schembri | 3AW | Fresh | 3/5 | 2018-04-27T05:20:24.000Z | 2018-04-27 05:20:24 | A fun, largely nonsensical film; based on the old arcade video game. |
| 245095 | J. Olson | Cinemixtape | Rotten | 1.5/5 | 2018-04-26T21:41:11.000Z | 2018-04-26 21:41:11 | Johnson's big opportunity for a memorable one-liner comes and goes with a sheepish "Well, that sucks." Touché, "Rampage." |
| 245096 | Erick Estrada | Cinegarage | Rotten | — | 2018-04-25T20:38:38.000Z | 2018-04-25 20:38:38 | The main draw here is the action sequences. Other than that Rampage provides no novelties despite another charming performance from The Rock. [Full Review in Spanish] |
| 245097 | Jack Bottomley | Starburst | Fresh | 8/10 | 2018-04-25T20:37:57.000Z | 2018-04-25 20:37:57 | Rampage is no doubt one of the most enjoyable movies ever based on a game but it's also a great big dollop of monstertertainment with a heart, morals, action scenes and well-designed creature roster as huge as its lead man's arms and charm. |
| 245098 | Kevin A. Ranson | MovieCrypt.com | Fresh | 3/4 | 2018-04-25T20:37:56.000Z | 2018-04-25 20:37:56 | It's a throwaway but a fun one: think "Sharknado" with a bigger budget and superior production design fit for a popcorn matinée. |
| 245100 | Fausto Fernandez | Fotogramas | Fresh | 4/5 | 2018-04-25T20:37:15.000Z | 2018-04-25 20:37:15 | [Rampage] gives you everything you expect from it. [Full Review in Spanish] |
| 245099 | Perri Nemiroff | Collider Video | Fresh | 6/10 | 2018-04-25T20:37:15.000Z | 2018-04-25 20:37:15 | Hokey dialogue and a terrible villain, but the charm of the Dwayne Johnson/George relationship and the fact that the destruction scenes are truly reminiscent of the game make Rampage some solid action-heavy entertainment. |
| 245101 | Jason Best | Movie Talk | Fresh | 3/5 | 2018-04-24T08:37:37.000Z | 2018-04-24 08:37:37 | As popcorn movies go, Rampage is gleefully ridiculous. But if you can swallow Johnson's preposterous character - a special-forces soldier before he became a primatologist - then you shouldn't have any problem with its humungous, rapidly mutating beasts. |
| 245102 | Ed Whitfield | The Ooh Tray | Rotten | — | 2018-04-21T13:14:31.000Z | 2018-04-21 13:14:31 | We don't want to see The Rock trying to reason with these beasts using sign language, we want to see him do all the s*** his gorilla proxy does. |
| 245103 | Todd Jorgenson | Cinemalogue | Rotten | — | 2018-04-20T15:40:32.000Z | 2018-04-20 15:40:32 | The exhausting barrage of mayhem and noise borders on sensory overload. |
| 245104 | Robert Roten | Laramie Movie Scope | Fresh | C+ | 2018-04-19T23:55:55.000Z | 2018-04-19 23:55:55 | This is not a particularly smart or believable film, but it does deliver action, heroism and, especially, escapism. I found it entertaining, mainly because of the action, the special effects, and the three main characters. |
| 245105 | Carl Kozlowski | Pasadena Weekly | Fresh | A | 2018-04-19T21:36:16.000Z | 2018-04-19 21:36:16 | In other words, just turn off your brain and get in touch with your inner child and the feeling you had the first time you saw Star Wars. Yes, it's that good. |
| 245107 | Oggs Cruz | Rappler | Rotten | — | 2018-04-19T21:01:39.000Z | 2018-04-19 21:01:39 | In Rampage's case, the bigger it gets, the blander. The film is one gigantic waste of time, one that not even Johnson, the MSG of Hollywood blockbusters, can salvage. |
| 245106 | Beth Accomando | KPBS.org | Fresh | — | 2018-04-19T21:01:39.000Z | 2018-04-19 21:01:39 | Rampage is by no means great filmmaking, but it does tap into the kaiju-inspired source of the video game to deliver what the 12-year-old in me loves: crazy big monsters destroying everything in their path. |
| 245109 | Mark Ellis | Schmoes Know | Fresh | 3/5 | 2018-04-19T18:20:59.000Z | 2018-04-19 18:20:59 | I liked the set-up and the mythology. The villain took me out of it a lot, but other than that, I enjoyed the ride. |
| 245108 | Kristian Harloff | Schmoes Know | Rotten | 2.5/5 | 2018-04-19T18:20:59.000Z | 2018-04-19 18:20:59 | Without The Rock this movie would be unwatchable...I think because I liked San Andreas a lot more than I should have that I was hoping for that kind of fun. I didn't get it. |
