Dwayne Johnson and director Brad Peyton have previously collaborated on the fun family adventure sequel “Journey 2: The Mysterious Island” and 2015’s surprisingly sophisticated, excellent action/thriller “San Andreas.” But film No. 3 for this duo isn’t nearly as successful; more proof that the Johnson charm-o-meter is continuing to trend in the wrong direction.

“Rampage” is based on the 1986 video arcade game about giant animal monsters destroying cities and battling the military. For this film version there is also the element of genetic engineering thrown in. When an experiment on a space station goes wrong, an explosion sends three containers with DNA-altering chemicals to Earth.
