Customer Ratings & Reviews

I am so glad to have this in my collection again. I had this for dvd and now on blu ray.

Solid performances from Cage (the beginning of his odd action film star run), Connery, and Harris, along with a (relatively) more coherent/better script make for a much better film than the typical Bay action film.

This movie is entertaining has many great sequences and two incredibly charismatic performances by Cage and Connery

I love this movie! Every since I saw it at the theaters, I knew I would own it for my collection. A must own!

The rock on Blu-ray looks great. Great action film with a awesome staff. Buying this is a no-brainer.

One of my favorites. Had to get it in Blu-Ray. Nicolas Cage/Sean Connery are awesome together

Blu-ray brings the picture and sound to a whole new level! Awesome movie!

Great action movie from beginning to end with 3 good actors

A thrilling and explosive film led by a trio of fantastic actors (especially Cage)

Before Michael Bay became a joke with his almost comedic style over substance films of the last decade or so, he was actually showing signs of being a pretty great action director. Which is why the Rock, for any faults it does have, is on just about anyones short list of greatest action flicks of the 1990's. The blu-ray should also be on anyone's shortlist for how good a 1990's catalogue title can look and sound. Supported with a high-bitrate encode, the film pops with resolution and depth in contrast and black levels. Even more than that, the lossless LPCM surround track will be like taking off tinfoil off your surround sound speakers when compared to the DVD. Definitely worth a pickup, especially since it's often at the right price.

Loved this movie back in the day. Lots of action. A great nick cage flick.

Have seen this a few times and wanted to add it to my dvd collection;

The Rock is about a group of soldiers who set up on Alcatraz Island and threaten to use a weapon of mass destruction on Fransisco unless the families of a group of fallen soldiers gets paid for their loss. Sean Connery and Nicholas Cage team up for an unlikely duo, a man who spent most of his life in prison without ever being charged with a crime and a government chemist, to prevent any civilian casualties. Even though the ending was extremely predictable, the movie is well worth watching.

This movie, in my opinion, is a great action flick that has a stellar cast. The talent represented in just the main 3 is immense and then you have supporting actors that are excellent in their own right. I would recommend this for anyone that enjoys action flicks and Nicolas Cage and Sean Connery.

Still one of my favorite movies and very happy to have it on Blu-ray! The LPCM 5.1 track 'rocks' my theater room. This was an early arrival to the format back in 2008 and it still looks and sounds good 14 years later.

Very entertaining popcorn movie and one of the best Bay-Bruckheimer collaborations. If you are looking for high art, this one isn't for you, but if you are looking to be entertained for an hour and a half, it is. As with all these types of movies you have to suspend disbelief for some of the plot points and some of the obvious problems with physics and geography, but that is easy enough given the fast-paced action.

How can you go wrong with Sean Connery as an ex-spy, Ed Harris as a slighted Marine and Nicholas Cage in his prime? You can't, because this is an awesome movie. Backed up by music by Hans Zimmer, this is definitely one worth adding to your collection!

A favorite action piece with Sean Connery to boot. The tension and acting was great by all....As long as you throw reality out the window and just take it in for what it is and trys to be. It's a lot of fun to revist these types of films on a rainy afternoon.

Great movie. Though I'm not too thrilled that U.S. Marines are the villains in the movie. Overall it's a good movie which shows Marines fighing against The FBI, Navy Seals and one Convict with a special past who are all trying to stop the Marines.

This is a good movie that is a fun ride. May want to review before letting young kids watch. The blue ray gives excellent sound and color and entertains as if in a movie theater. Sean Connery is great and I highly recommend this movie.
