Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

The film is entertaining, but no mere mortal has that much upper body strength.

I Love Hong Kong. I Love Skyscrapers. I Love The Rock ( and many of his films ).
I didn't love this film.The Opening Shots of Hong Kong, it's Skyline and especially the fictional supertall skyscraper are beautiful.
Sadly - that is about it.Could not care for any of the characters in this film. Be it protagonists or antagonists - everything and everybody felt bland.I'm sure everybody involved worked hard - maybe owed to the fact that it is ( tries to be ? ) a tribute to some of the GOOD old fashioned action flicks.But the end result just feels wrong / dull / disappointing.I think it was an attempt at a 'supersized' globalized version of Die Hard but just didn't work out.Have a look at Dwayne Johnson's other action flicks and you'll be happier.( Or just watch the actual 1988 Die Hard ).

Usually I like movies with "The Rock" - but this is lame. It has some good ideas but it is not thrilling. Noticeable: The biggist tower of Hongkong is burning and I saw no single fireman in the whole movie. That's Hollywood.

Skyscraper is just another Dwayne Johnson movie where he is a sole hero, passing through all stages of disaster, untouched, like a master gamer. The movie employs a very desperate screen-writing filled with plot-holes and forced clichés that make the piteousness of the suffering characters appear ingenuine.
