Terry Crews and Ludacris modernize the old folk tale, John Henry for the big screen.
According to urban legends, , Henry was the fastest and strongest worker to hit a hammer on the railroad, even beating a machine. In the movie out January 24th, Crews who plays Henry, is kicking butt and taking names... with a SLEDGE HAMMER on the streets of South Los Angeles.
From Saban Films, the movie centers on the titular character (Crews), a former gang member who is now living a more sedate life caring for his father ( Ken Foree). When two immigrants running from his former gang leader ( Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges) come across his way, he must decide whether to revisit his troubled past to help give the two children a better future.
