Review of The Rock

The Rock (1996)
8/10
A movie that proves to all the nay-sayers that Michael Bay certainly has talent..

I mean, come on. This is the kind of bubble gum pop-rock entertainment with gratuitous violence every single mainstream viewer is waiting for. Big deal if you only watch independent movies. This flick was properly made and genuinely exciting.

Adrenaline-pumping, interesting, and just genuinely solid, this movie has great sound effects, visual effects, proper acting, a decent story and bedazzling camera use.

Michael Bay has kind of made a whole lot of bad movies after this perfectly entertaining work. Armageddon, Pearl Harbor, the Island, face it, it was crap. And now he is going to make a Transformers movie. But a PG-rated, teen-orientated version for god's sake. Come on Mike, we know you can do decent stuff!!
