Welcome to the Rock

Rating: 10/10 (12 November 1998)

Sean Connery and Nicholas Cage team up for one of the most brilliant and explosive action movies of all- time! you It was accompanied by a stand out performance by Creep Show alumni Ed Harris. Now many would feel that all action movies have an unmotivated "bad guy" this film however showed true to life "villain." Harris is holding SF and most of the East coast for ransom. Why? Because he feels that America has forgotten the dead war heroes families. Sean Connery was put into the Alcatraz because he was the only one who ever escaped the Rock. An elite team lead by Michael Bien, The Terminator and Tombstone, to save 50 hostages and take out Ed Harris and his henchmen. Cage was put on the task force to dismantle 4 bombs pointed at the East coast. The movie was suspenseful, daring, humorous, and witty. Again a four star performance to Ed Harris in one of the most memorable villains. if that is what you call him, of all time.
