Why not? I’ll watch a one-legged Dwayne Johnson dangle off
of a burning building with Neve Campbell for 102 minutes. Sure, there’s more to
Skyscraper than that, but not much. And that’s all that matters
in what’s a serviceable, at times goofily over-the-top entertaining, at times
dreadful and dreary Die-Hard-meets-Towering-Inferno
riff. And I’m fairly certain the entire film was bankrolled by the Chinese duct
tape industry. Seriously, the silver-backed tape has a much more significant
presence than it has any right to.
