Between his high-octane debut, Bad Boys, and 1998's wannabe blockbuster Armageddon, hotshot director Michael Bay forged his dubious reputation with this crowd-pleasing action extravaganza. In it a psychotically disgruntled war hero (Ed Harris) seizes the island prison of Alcatraz and threatens to wage chemical warfare against nearby San Francisco unless the government publicly recognizes the men who were killed under Harris's top-secret command. Nicolas Cage plays the biochemist who teams up with the only man ever to have escaped from Alcatraz (Sean Connery) in an attempt to foil Harris's terrorist scheme. As one might expect, what follows is an action-packed barrage of bullets, bodies, and climactic confrontations, replete with enough plot contrivances to give even the most jaded action fan cause for alarm. It's a load of hooey, but the cast is obviously having a grand old time, and there's enough wit to make the recycled action sequences tolerable. If you're ordering this movie on Blu-ray, be careful with the volume knobs on your home-theater sound systems, because The Rock could cause partial hearing loss and structural damage to your home. --Jeff Shannon

Fantastic movie, finally on Blu-Ray. I already have this on DVD, and am glad I now have it in HD on Blu-Ray. Now, I'm good to go.

This is a great story of personal redemption, laced with awesome action sequences and spectacular sound. The angles and editing are fantastic, and the "crisis" of consciousness that the characters face, along with the humurous sub plot of Nick Cage's character all blend for a fun, entertaining action movie.

I've always been a fan of this movie, the Rock. Michael Bay catches a lot of flak about his Hollywood-esque action movies, but you can't find anyone that knows action better than him. This movie proved his abilities and put him on the map as an action director. The scenes are beautiful. Wonderful, colorful shots followed by more wonderful shots. The cast is full of great actors too like Sean Connery, Ed Harris, and Michael Beihn.
The disc itself is a great testament to HD media. ... Read More
