Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is back in his latest kid friendly flick, Journey 2: The Mysterious Island. He takes on the role of buff stepfather to Sean, the teenaged kid involved in the “Journey to the Center of the Earth” adventure. (Brendan Fraser couldn’t be bothered to make the sequel apparently).

I suppose it could be said that is was only a matter of time before Todd Phillips was going to set his “crude,” alcohol-fueled partying mind on teenaged subjects.

Many of the cast — Gandalf, Legolas, Elrond, Bilbo, Frodo — are back, this time to face off with the…
