Venice, Italy - Actor Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson was visibly moved to tears as his latest film, "The Smashing Machine," reportedly garnered a 15-minute standing ovation at the Venice Film Festival. The emotional reception saw Johnson, who portrays wrestler Mark Kerr in the film, embrace a colleague and repeatedly acknowledge the applauding audience. Eyewitnesses described a powerful moment as the cast and crew, including Johnson, stood before the rapturous crowd. "He was truly overwhelmed," one attendee noted, "you could see the genuine emotion on his face." However, the lengthy ovation has also sparked a debate among film enthusiasts and critics. Social media users questioned the frequency of such long ovations at recent festivals, with some comments pointing to previous instances like "Joker 2" also receiving a 15-minute applause. "Does every movie at the Venice film festival get a 15 min ovation… this is the 5th one I’ve seen," one user commented, while another added, "I don’t trust these standing ovations because yall gave joker 2 an 11 minute standing ovation, that was a major flop." Despite the online skepticism regarding the duration, the immediate reaction in Venice clearly indicated a profound impact of "The Smashing Machine" on its premiere audience, positioning Johnson's performance as a potential awards contender.
