Connery ages gracefully.

Rating: Null/10 (28 June 1999)

Sean Connery is one of those men (like Ricardo Montalban) who ages like a fine brandy. For his presence alone I'd forgive a lot. But fortunately, there's not a lot to forgive. The Rock is an action pic -- plausability in retrospect isn't the issue. It just takes you along for the ride, and with one of the sexiest guides ever to grace the screen. (This may explain why women seem to like The Rock more than men do.)
Nicholas Cage is endearing as a bungling geek-type who should have been issued a new pocket protector instead of a sidearm. His perpetually stunned facial expression fits the character.
The Rock isn't War and Peace, but it's great entertainment. Enjoy.
