The Rock and Siri star in an Apple “movie” that is actually bloody good

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is one of Hollywood’s hardest working superstars – worth over $200million US he’s got more films and shows to his name in the last few years than many would hope for in a lifetime.

So when he announced a new Movie with Apple – folks were curious.  Well, it’s a short film, and it would be a Tropfest winner if the “Object” for that year was Siri, or a Smartphone.

It’s one big promo for Apple’s Siri, and you can bet it’s the first of many with Apple looking to normalise the use of voice assistants as the HomePod launch draws near.

At first glance you’re thinking, no thanks. But, stick with me here – it’s actually bloody good.  I liked it.

It’s less than 4 minutes of your life.  Go on, click it.
