As a die-hard fan who has seen my fair share of action movies over the past few decades, I must say that Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s highest-rated film on Rotten Tomatoes, “Fighting with My Family,” stands out as a true gem among his impressive body of work. This wrestling dramedy, directed by Stephen Merchant and starring the talented Florence Pugh, has captured the hearts of both critics and fans alike.
Dwayne Johnson has starred in some of the most beloved action movies of the last two decades, yet his highest-rated movie on Rotten Tomatoes is an often-overlooked 2019 dramedy called Fighting with My Family. It may not have the brand recognition of Fast & Furious or Jumanji, but this wrestling film has inspired overwhelmingly positive reviews from critics and fans. At the time of this writing, it has a 93-percent positive score with an average rating of 7.3 out of 10.
Fighting with My Family is a film penned and helmed by British humorist Stephen Merchant, featuring Florence Pugh portraying aspiring wrestler Paige. The ensemble includes Lena Headey, Nick Frost, Jack Lowden, Vince Vaughn, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. As the title suggests, it’s inspired by a 2012 documentary called The Wrestlers: Fighting with My Family, but presents a made-up tale of wrestling enthusiasts reaching fame instead. This film has garnered favorable reviews from audiences – boasting an 86% positive score on the Popcornmeter, and an average rating of 4.2 out of 5 stars.
It’s important to note that while Johnson has been part of other films with better ratings on Rotten Tomatoes, this is his highest-rated live-action appearance. His roles in other movies have either been as a producer or voice actor, like in Moana, which currently boasts a 95% positive score.
These kinds of scores could be affected by viewership as well, but that doesn’t seem to be the case here. For example, if we compare Fighting with My Family to something with greater reach, like Furious 7, they have a comparable number of total reviews – 242 and 279, respectively. However, Furious 7 has an 82-percent positive score a 6.3 out of 10 average rating. Things are not so even in the audience scores. While Fighting with My Family has over 5,000 self-submitted user reviews, Furious 7 has over 100,000.
A significant element in this context is the passion of wrestling enthusiasts, particularly those who follow the WWE. The film portrays a dramatized version of SmackDown, with numerous genuine wrestling celebrities and famous venues like the O2 Arena. Fans of wrestling flocked to see this movie, both in cinemas and digitally, providing them an opportunity to spark their children’s interest as well.
My Family’s Fight had a restricted cinema release and managed to gross $41.5 million despite having a production cost of just $11 million. Currently, it is not available for streaming with a Prime Video subscription or on MGM+. Instead, you can rent or buy the movie from PVOD outlets, or alternatively, find it on Blu-ray or DVD.
