During one of his morning patrols, Mitch discovers a small pouch of drugs washed up near the Huntley Club, which is now under the ownership of Businesswoman Victoria Leeds (Priyanka Chopra).

At the Upcoming Tryouts for New Lifeguards, three People stand out : Surfer Summer Quinn (Alexandra Daddario), an old Friend of Holden's, Ronnie (Jon Bass), a chubby nerd with a crush on C.J. Parker (Kelly Rohrbach) and Matt Brody (Zac Efron), a former Olympic Swimmer who fell from grace after vomiting during a Race and now has to perform Community Service as part of an unspecified Plea Deal....

OUR REVIEW :

There is no doubt that Dwayne Johnson has a staggering amount of charisma... Dwayne Johnson stars alongside Zac Efron, Alexandra Daddario, and Priyanka Chopra in the big-screen remake of the popular '90s television series, where lifeguards attempt to uncover a criminal plot that threatens all that is good and pure in the world of beach life. Zac Efron and Dwayne Johnson lift heavy things and Zac Efron has no top on while Dwayne Johnson has a really great singlet on....During the early parts of the movie, the character of Ronnie is heavily featured along with his romance with lifeguard CJ in multiple uncomfortable situations.... The good-looking men and women of the team are all on display with their slow motion jiggles intact....

But you might also say the storyline is incomprehensible, the jokes are all dick jokes/overdone, old or flat, the acting is wooden, the dialogue worse, it´s far too long, there´s some problematic scenes in there where you think really ?

Anyway, Dwayne Johnson is an extremely likable guy and he joins other cinema celebrities who have said they don´t make movies for critics; they make them for the fans.... So, if you are one of them, do not hesitate !
