A fun little action movie

Rating: 9/10 (16 December 2007)

The first thing I must say is that I love Michael Bay movies. Even Pearl Harbor. (will be awaiting flames for that) I have not seen all of his movies yet, and this is the most recent of his that I have viewed. I used to think that Transformers was his best film, but all of that changed when I saw The Rock. This is a great movie all around. The chemistry between Sean Connery and Nicholas Cage is great, and Ed Harris is great as a villain. (He also does a great job in Enemy At The Gates) Sure there is some cheesy dialog, but then again, what is an action movie without a little bit of cheese? Some of the action is over the top. But once again, that is what you would see in your normal everyday action movie. The only things I can say bad about this movie is the fact that there is not enough of it. Oh well, what can you do about it? 9 stars out of 10, due to the fact that there is not enough of it.
