Rating: 10/10 (13 February 2000)

The Rock is a first class action experience, that keeps you in suspense through out the entire movie.
The Plot: General Frank X Hummel(Ed Harris), and a bunch of marines breaks in at a top secret chemical weapons storage facility, to steal the extremely lethal VX-Gas. He now takes over "the Rock" or Alcatraz island, and threatens to launch the VX-gas against the San Francisco bay area.The goverment sends out a Seal Team along with Stanly Godspeed(Nicloas Cage) & John Mason(Sean Connery). Now 80000 lives depend on a "lab-rat" and an ex-con to find and defuse the rockets loaded with the VX.
This movie delivers it all: action, thrills, kills, humor and the brilliant actors. Ed Harris who plays General Hummel, acts so beliveble, that you almost takes his side.
Rarely seen such a classic: 9Â½/10
