You know what you're getting into watching The Rock. Nicholas Cage being Nicholas Cage before it became a meme. Connery adding some chops. Michael Bay adds the crashes and explosions. Ed Harris took what could have been a paper thin role and infused some meaning and urgency into the antagonist. In the end, the hero saves the day. Solid popcorn flick.

An old-fashioned goodies battle the baddies with everything depending on an unlikely duo of a chemist and former criminal. Setting this warfare at Alcatraz works well (even if it does not organically emerge as part of the plot; it's a rather heavy-handed plot device, but it still works). Cage, Connery and Harris make for an effective trio. It's certainly action packed (Bay doing his thing).

It is the most prototypical 90's action film. Which isn't saying much, as it really couldn't be made today. The roles for women fail the Bechdel test. The gay hairdresser scene made me cringe when I saw the film when it was new. And the Department of Defense would (rightfully) hate a film that paints soldiers out as sociopaths. Still, it gets a slight marginal recommendation as a time capsule, and for the great chemistry between Cage and Connery. You can tell those two had fun making this.
