It's got four of my favorite actors, Sean Connery, Nicolas Cage, Ed Harris, and Michael Biehn (if you don't know who that is, he played Kyle Reese in the Terminator).
compare this movie to golden eye which was only made 1 yr before the rock, and it looks like it was made 8 years before pointing out on special effects etc, michael bay de best
actually one thing i didin't understand in this movie is that why the goverment didin't pay the money to the General instead of destroying the rock by aircraft and killing the hostages.
@MrCrashtester90 yeh but the decision was taken, the president gave the green light to destroy the island and kill 80+ hostages instead of paying what ? 100 millions dollars ? how stupid could that be ?
@MikeRul3s well yea they should've payed but probably weren't able to get the money in time ? ... and the president must've thought that the marines were going to kill the hostages ..
@iKhicken like when you jump down the hole and go threw the sewers to prices cell.come to think of it as anyone realises price kindof looks like sean connery
I remember when just seeing the Simpson/Bruckheimer logo would get me hyped! You knew what to expect: big budget, well-written, stylish action! Man, they were knocking out hits in the 90s... Bad Boys, Crimson Tide, Con Air, Armageddon, Enemy Of The State... But Jerry lost his edge when Don died. After that he sold his soul to Disney and now puts out trash like the Pirates of The Caribbean movies :(
Hey, I'm Staney GoodSpeed, FBI Chemical Weapons Expert and you?
I'm going to kill you!
Do you like classic rock? Like Jano and the rocketman.
No.
That's to bad because your the rocketman.(Flip the switch and the rocket hits the guy, sents him out the window, and falling though a sharp pipew to his death).
there's a part in modern warfare 2 where you pop green flairs on top of a building so the f16's don't drop bombs on the area and u pop the flares just in time as the planes fly over just like in the rock.
Modern warfare 2 creators were influenced by this movie I bet.There are parts in modern warfare where you have a firefight in a bathroom/shower area.your breaking into a prison/castle that has s.a.m sites all around it to break out a prisoner.
This is one of the best movies in 90s and quite possible one of the best all time. i like that bad guys of this movies are americans, not iranians or russians like other movies. its good to have America versus America good versus evil battle.
i will agree with you on all of the films except con air (its awesome but not as awesome as the other movies) and I would replace it with true lies (now thats a movie which kicked ass!!
@rossd91 add armageddon to that list to complete it and the funny thing is nicholas cage is in three of those films which probably made him the most famous actor durig that period
this wouldn't even be a movie without the stars: ed harris, sean connery, nick cage, I mean geese, how could you fuck that one up? All the more reason michael bay is a fucking joke now...just builds monstrosities that cost too much, fucking joke of a director, fucking joke...
there are a lot of writers and directors in the world, it's what opportunity falls into their laps that matters, it's what makes or breaks them...sometimes stars do take bad scripts, terrible movie ideas that just don't ever pan out, true...the rock is also a great idea to put asses in the seats, but I think the directing of it is cheesy by today's standards...don't get me wrong, I love it, but michael bay came by an opportunity, he's a certain kind of director, replace cage with lebouff, and...
a film a can switch my brain off to, top film tho. think i'll have a beer, michael bay style, drink it slo mo, get on my knees and give it an action yell
the best movie in the action genre is face/off, then the rock. true lies and hard boiled. the lord of the rings and the bourne trilogies are good also.
My favorite movie forever!!
