Rating: Summary: best bond film ever Review: The most clever thing about this witty film is the fact that Sean Connery is basically playing James Bond - albeit a James Bond who just spent 30 years in the nastiest federal prisons the US of A has to offer. If the ludicrous plot, gratuitous destruction and cliched characters aren't a hindrance to you, then you are in for the a treat. This movie is not only ridiculously action packed, it verges on self-mocking, and has some of the best one-liners ever. With this dvd edition, The Rock gets the treatment that it deserves. Buy it and rejoice.
Rating: Summary: Good Movie Review: I say it was a good movie. Mostly because my dad was in it. He was one of the Marines carrying the Casket in the very begining another one of the marines there is a family friend so I say 5 starts plus I am into any thing involving the Marine Corps, so its a good movie to me.
Rating: Summary: Stupid. Review: 'The Rock' is yet another stupid action movie. It wasted some good talent like Nick Cage and Sean Connery, but think they were just trying to make money anyway.
Rating: Summary: Alcatraz Will Rock Review: Wow, wow, wow, wow, and wow. This film is brilliant in every aspect. This does have a fair bit of course language, but that's my only criticizm. It is a highly underrated movie, and I encourage all fans of action/drama to watch this before it becomes too old that you are too lazy to see it when you can see the latest release. In a summary, an ex-U.S. Marine (Ed Harris) and his team of mercenaries break into Alcatraz and ask the President for $100 Million to be split up among the families of U.S. Marines who have gone down in the line of fire, and threatens to launch missiles containing VX Nerve Gas as San Fransisco. Using a weapons' specialist (Nicholas Cage) and the only person to ever break out of Alcatraz (Sean Connery) and a team of Marines, they break into Alcatraz to sort things out.
Rating: Summary: Adrenaline Pumping RIde Review: This is an action movie through and through, but somehow it manages to be even more by adding some convincing subplots for the three main characters Nicholas Cage, Sean Connery, and Ed Harris, who act well in this movie. Ultimately the movie can be ground down to 3 men, all heroes, trying to make the world right, and the journey to do this leads to the captivating Alcatraz Island, a great setting with its cold prison and beautiful setting. All aspects of "The Rock" are well-done from the acting, to the action, to the special effects. This is the premier action movie of the 1990s and is a must-see.
Rating: Summary: A Big Turkey..... Review: Michael Bay and Jerry Bruchemer (or should I say Junk Man of Movies) made this 1996 unbelieveable loud film that featured no chemistry between Connery and Cage, and saw Ed Harris waste his acting talents on a shallow part. A bad movie made by a bad company named Disney Productions.
Rating: Summary: GREATEST MOVIE EVER Review: This is the greatest movie ever.... interesting plot... great action.... awesome car chase.... and of course Sean Connery. Great cast, Sean Connery, Nicholas Cage, Ed Harris all do a great job. BUY THIS MOVIE NOW you won't regret it.
Rating: Summary: The Rock Rocks Review: I remember that this movie came out in theaters while I was in high school around the same time as Independence Day. I saw the Rock first and liked it better. I know... many people would find that statement unpatriotic, but this movie has a good plot, good action, and just keeps you on the edge of you seat. This all comes from someone who generally prefers the romantic comedies, but somehow this movie captivated me and still remains one of my all time favorite movies. What can I say? This girl thinks that the Rock, well...rocks!
Rating: Summary: vanessa marcil Review: I just watched this film for Vanessa Marcil who plays Nicholas Cages girlfriend in this film. I honestly did not like the film and Vanessa barely had any lines. I payed no attention to the plot. All the action did not interest me.
Rating: Summary: im Sean Connery and im on The Rock Review: a top notch action thriller is one of the best action movies of 1996. its about Ed Harris and hes fed up with crap so he organizes a team and they hold up Alcatraz because he's going to launcha missle that'll kill a lot of people. Nicolas Cage, with Sean Connery(a man who knows Alcatraz like he knows his foes), Michael Biehn and a team of professionals go to The Rock and try to get the missles and stop Harris from killing innocent people. some stupid oneliners but otherwise its great with a car chase, missles flying, people eating toxic green balls. it has everything a action movie cooks up. theres a great team of other actors like William Forsythe, John Spencer, Vanessa Marcil, Tony Todd, Bookem Woodbine, John C. Mcginley, Steve Harris and Anthony Clark(who is gay and funny in this movie) that cook up those ingredients and give us a good ride
