People may have been worried about the upcoming Baywatch movie because, let's face it, there's not really any reason for it to exist. With the inclusion of mega-star Dwayne Johnson and the recent addition of Zac Efron however, opinions may be starting to change. Personally, I was swayed by the news that the movie wouldn't be porting over the TV series' tone and sense of humor, but rather a 21 Jump Street type of feature adaptation. That's much more interesting. Making things even more interesting, and reinforcing the idea of a very adult level of humor in this movie, are Johnson's recent social media posts about the film's R rating.
In case you don't believe me, take a look at what The Rock himself has been saying about the Baywatch movie:
