So many plot holes, unbelievable story. Freaking sad.

Ten years earlier, FBI tactical unit leader Will Sawyer (Dwayne Johnson) is injured in a hostage situation. He is saved by his surgeon and future wife Sarah (Neve Campbell) although he loses his left leg. In the present day, he is hired by tycoon Zhao Long Ji who has just finished his record breaking skyscraper in Hong Kong. International terrorist Kores Botha has his own plans. The police are confused and suspects Will as a terrorist who started a fire in the new building. Will has to run from the police and the terrorists while trying to rescue his family trapped in the burning building.This is trying to be Die Hard with a healthy dose of Fast and Furious. Unlike Die Hard, much of this is outrageous to the point of illogical. The action is over the top. The Rock is superhuman and quite frankly, Neve Campbell is Mrs. Superhuman. I can live with the ridiculous action but I don't think the characters make sense. There is the really inconvenient switch placement in the blades of non-sense but why would the bad guys leave The Rock alone after capturing him and his daughter. Whatsup with the crazy Enter The Dragon room? These terrorists have all kinds of stuff. They should at least try some explosives on the door. This is far from Die Hard. It has no humor. It's not even trying to be funny. John McClane is a human being who gets hurt a lot. The Rock here is impervious and impregnable. That's this movie. It is hard to feel for non-human non-humorous impregnable characters.

It's a good movie to watch with your friends, just to spend a night. Good, not great, I expected more. DO NOT compare this movie to die hard.

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.
