Error creating thumbnail: File missing Faster (2010)Faster is a 2010 action film starring Dwayne Johnson as an ex-con who sets out to avenge the death of his brother (Matt Gerald ) after they were double-crossed during a heist years ago. During his campaign of revenge, he's tracked by a veteran cop (Billy Bob Thornton ) and an egocentric hit man (Oliver Jackson-Cohen ).
The following weapons were used in the film Faster :
Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan Driver (Dwayne Johnson ) uses a 2.5" barreled Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan throughout the movie. The unfluted cylinder indicates that it is chambered for the .454 Casull cartridge or the .480 Ruger. However the .480 Ruger model has been discontinued, and shots in the film confirm it is loaded with .454 Casull rounds.
