Dwanye 'The Rock' Johnson's new A24 movie The Smashing Machine may not have had a successful theatrical release, but the sports biopic has earned a rave review from none other than Oppenheimer director Christopher Nolan.
"It’s heartbreaking. I think it’s an incredible performance. I don’t think you’ll see a better performance this year," said Nolan of Johnson's portrayal of MMA fighter Mark Kerr, whilst speaking with director Benny Safdie in the most recent episode of The Directors Guild of America's The Director's Cut podcast.
