Review of The Rock (1996) by Rafiq U — 20 Sep 2012
The only time I'll give Michael Bay credit as a good filmmaker. A fantastic action movie, mainly because he utilized 90's Nicolas Cage (aka the only good form) and made Sean Connery exactly what he is, a ridiculous badass. If you don't like action and love slow ass shit, then don't watch this, on the other hand, if you do like fast paced action you can't get much better than this and I mean the one-liners... oh the one-liners. Ed Harris plays a strong character too and the major cast is pretty good, Michael Biehn is kind of wasted but it's good to see him there at least. The story is solid, nothing special, but it doesn't need to be if everything is tip top.
PROS: Sean Connery, Nicolas Cage, everything else.
CONS: There seriously aren't any.
