Today I am going to take a look at the 1996 film "The Rock" starring the late Sean Connery, Nicolas Cage and Ed Harris.. This is a fantastic action movie, the basic storyline is that a group of soldiers have gone rouge with there general and are threatening a nerve gas attack on San Francisco - A Terrible thing to do but as you find out The General (Ed harris) has a very good reason for doing this...
Alcatraz is a great place for this to be set from, and without giving to much away it ties in nicely with the characters. I find it a bit hard to take Nicolas cage seriously as an actor after 10 million memes but he does play his parts well in general, Sean Connery is great here, im not a bond fan as such so this is the movie I really associate him with, Ed Harris steals the show and the other supporting actors are well cast.
Great 90s action movie, well worth a watch.
Movie rating - 8/10
