Dwayne Johnson has come to terms with the tepid critical reception to his latest movie, the live-action “Moana” remake.
The muscled thespian spoke with People about his reaction to the film, which drew the ire of critics.
“Our first two reviews came out,” Johnson said. “I’ll never forget it … They were amazing. I was like, ‘Wow.’ [Then] it went another way, as sometimes happens. That’s just the way it goes because we’re in this business. [My wife and I] had a lot of these conversations at home, at the kitchen island late at night when the babies are asleep. The challenge was, ‘OK, let’s remember, though, what’s going to be beyond this opening weekend. Let’s remember what’s happening right now and the noise that’s happening right now.’”
Despite the lack of critical adoration, Johnson said he’s proud of the film and that it brought joy to people.
“If you love it, great. If you don’t, no problem,” Johnson said.
