I have a soft spot for The Rock, the next movie in the "Bayhem" marathon I watched on Blu Ray with commentary by Michael Bay, Nicholas Cage, Sean Connery and Ed Harris. This movie has everything you'd want in a summer blockbuster and the commentary is great at covering all the bases from casting Connery in a role where he felt like Bond all over again to the breakthrough of Cage as a star. For me, it's the pace of the movie and the way that the action unfolds to leave the best parts of the movie on Alcatraz towards the end yet you never feel anxious to get there.
