Red One: Dwayne Johnson Movie Gets Terrible Rotten Tomatoes & Metacritic Scores

As a seasoned gamer who’s been through countless cinematic adventures, I can’t help but feel a tinge of anticipation mixed with apprehension upon hearing about Red One. The duo of Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans is an intriguing prospect, no doubt, but the less-than-stellar reviews from the critics have me questioning whether this film will live up to its potential.


The upcoming film titled “Red One,” starring Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans, appears to have received negative reviews from critics. Preliminary reports suggest it’s garnered low ratings on both Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. Set for release in the U.S. on November 15, 2024, director Jake Kasdan’s production carries a massive budget of $250 million.

Negative critic reviews lead to weak Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic scores

As the holiday season approaches, Red One plans to offer an entertaining action-adventure film for Christmas. This movie teams up Johnson and Evans for their first time as a lively duo. Despite being a week away from its theater release, the film’s ratings on review sites have sparked conversation on social media platforms.

Based on Rotten Tomatoes, the film “Red One” has earned a rating of 33% after being reviewed by 21 critics. Similarly, on Metacritic, the movie received a score of 37 from 9 reviews by critics. As mentioned before in ComingSoon, the film garnered mixed reactions, with many describing it as average. Additionally, the production encountered challenges, resulting in a delay of one year due to the SAG-AFTRA strike.

On the contrary, Dwayne Johnson discussed his collaboration with Chris Evans in an interview with People. He stated, “I laughed a lot during our work together. I’m known for disrupting takes by laughing – it’s just how it goes. Chris is incredibly funny, and he’s also extremely talented. I initially suspected that we might have good chemistry. So did he. And indeed, we did.

“According to Rotten Tomatoes, the official summary for Red One goes like this: When Santa Claus, also known as RED ONE, gets abducted, the Head of Security at the North Pole (played by Dwayne Johnson) joins forces with an internationally notorious bounty hunter (Chris Evans). Together they embark on a thrilling, action-packed journey across the globe to rescue Christmas.
