Yup, that’s my first thought too. However hard I try, I can’t justify the money some of these actors get paid. 50m for Dwayne - he is an average actor at best, somewhat entertaining, but 50M?

Movie itself was meh. I can’t get the 2 hours back :(

It's not about how much $ Dwayne deserves, but how much of the % he deserves. I'd argue 1/4th of the money makes sense, since a lot of people click on movies just because he's in it.
