an all time great

Rating: 10/10 (14 February 1999)

i was pleased to see that the rock doesn't depend TOO much on guns,missiles and brawlin. ed harris does well as a marine who has tired of the government draggin its feet on giving restitution to the soldiers he has lost during his tours of duty. his only option he sees is to hold san francisco ransom with nervegas missiles or pay several million toward his cause. cage is also well suited as a lab rat recruited by the feds to help bring down ed harris and his hired mercs.sean connery like ed harris also has a dinosaur sized bone to pick with the feds from being jailed for 30 years without a trial for having evidence the g'ment wants hidden.last but not least,lovely vanessa marcil is cages soon to be wife who has just told him of their expected child.although her part in the film is not very large,it only makes you wanna jump through the screen and do the "grab you cha cha cha" with her when she does appear. only one person seems to have not enjoyed this film that i saw.perhaps he too has been screwed by the government had has yet to hold a city ransom and meet his demands.oh well.
