No, nothing to do with
The Rock
, but rather the rock where some of the most notorious criminals were left to rot, Alcatraz. Most notable in American history would be Al Capone. This is one of the best straight-up action movies I have ever seen, and it was Michael Bay's second film. It also has the highest rating out of any of his films with a 66% on Rotten Tomatoes. This was always one of those films that I have heard of, but never actually seen.
It features great performances by Ed Harris, the one and only Sean Connery, and Nicholas Cage. What? Yes, even him. Great action set pieces, one of which will immediately remind you of a portion of Modern Warfare 2. The designers obviously watched this movie. Additionally you also get a great score by Hans Zimmer to punctuate the action. I could tell by the first ten minutes that this would turn into one of my favorite films.
It wasn't an award winner by any means, but who cares. If you are bored within the next few days, find a free steam online somewhere and give it a shot. There is some emotion in there for a Michael Bay film, trust me. The end nearly melts your heart, and you are left feeling good. This is a great film in my opinion for the ride it took me on (listening with HD headphones), and that's why I would give it a 5/5. Bay has been quoted in the past regarding his critics, "I make movies for teenage boys-- get over it," but this film is enjoyable for action fans of all ages. I'll post more amateur movie reviews periodically.
PS. Connery is a badass.

Nicolas Cage went on to steal the Declaration of Independence and Ed Harris became some douche who doesn't like Nicolas Cage.
BTW where the heck is National Treasure 3?

The Rock is one of my all time favourite films.
On the SCALONOID™ Cinema Index is 9.5/10
Also Nick Cage is the best actor.

It's a good movie, one where Cage actually tries to act.
A rare thing indeed.
