People always focus on the first line and forget the comeback.
"Carla *was* the Prom Queen".
I love this movie.
Sean Connery is eternal.
There is a great theory that Sean Connery's character in this movie is actually an older James Bond and it fits so well that I think the movie gets even better if you see it that way. It's totally unofficial of course and Bruckheimer himself dismissed the idea
Recommendation: Please react to "Enemy of the state" and "Con air"
I'm 100% convinced they thought of the Rocket Man joke first, and tried to create an entire movie around it.
Yes
😅😅😅😅
It really says something about how great a character Hummel is that the movie feels the need to have his henchmen betray and kill him to make sure you're rooting for the right side during the climax.
If no one betrayed him, the movie would've ended prematurely.
What I liked about Hummel was that, while his methods were wrong, he was doing it for the right reasons. His only mistake was recruiting men that he never served with to help him. Once he realised that he couldn't go through with launching the missiles, he was screwed.
@@bluejays25 He made more than just one mistake. Including thinking that the government would actually pay now.
The Man, The Myth, The Legend......Sir Sean Connery.... One of the best actors of all time in my opinion!!
"First of all, it's because I'm a Beatle-maniac; and second, these sound better." is still funny as heck because Nic Cage is known for his love of Elvis.
He even married Elvis daughter...didn't last long....
I actually think the stand off scene in the bathroom is the best scene in the film. Ed Harris is doing all of this because of lost soldiers lives. And now he’s being forced to take more soldiers lives for his cause, which is what makes his “redemption arc” work for me.
Its my favorite scene as well. I just think its difficult for non military ppl to understand the mentality of a soldier/marine in battle.
He didn't need redemption. His plan never included actually killing people or firing the missiles and annihilating thousands of people at once He wasn't a bad guy to begin with.
Best and most quoted scene on the movie.
“The same blood in the same mud”
He was actually trying to save them. He still kept pressing the SEALS to surrender even again after he had said, "I AM NOT GONNA REPEAT THAT ORDER" he could tell one small misdirection would cause a catastrophe, which as we know, happened.
Yup. That scene always makes me tear up.
This is Michael Bay’s best movie by far, it’s awesome in every way. The cast is stacked with so many great character actors as well as the three leads.
Not a high bar though. 😂
It feels like his Magnum Opus, even though it’s earlier in his career. Everything is his style done perfectly. Even the weird cheesy jokes work alongside Nic Cage and Connery giving an insane performance (and I mean that quite literally).
For me it’s The Island. This one has many of the Michael Bay scenes which get ridiculously excessive, the car chase being the big one. Where in The Island I feel everything is more balanced and dare I say grounded.
@@neonsmoviereviews7969 The Island is so underrated, but I would wholeheartedly agree that that one gives the rock a run for its money. Man, that was GOOD!!!
@@Ivy94F As a fellow Island fan, if you want that story explored in a non-Michael Bay fashion check out Never Let Me Go
"They have the high ground here"
Ok. Thanks there, Obi-Wan
Met Tony Todd. Apparently Bay was in full crazy genius mode making this.
There is a genuine theory out there that the rock is a james bond movie in disguise, because the time lines between connery bond and Cpt John mason are a mach. Also Frank Hummel's tours in 'Nam fit within the timelines.
Mason is Bond.
It may line up correctly but in the end it's not
@@MrMagicianJr you sure about that?
Makes ‘em all more fun. 😉
@MrMagicianJr The screenwriter literally says it is James Bond.
@@PorterJustPorter yet some pretend to believe otherwise… 🤔
The Rock and Con Air, the truly best 90s movies. I've watched both SOOOOOO many times. They are the perfect brainless summer actions movies that we desperately need again today. Sure we have movies like Fast and Furious, but the 90s action movies just felt different.
Gotta throw Face/Off in there too
Yes that’s the holy trinity of Nic Cage 90s awesomeness.
Con Air is a cinematic masterpiece, though I'd say the way they killed their villain (John Malkovich) was way over the top: run through the leg with a stick, thrown through two windows and into live power lines, and then head crushed with a piston. Why couldn't they have done that to the "23 hearts" guy?
90 action flicks were something else.
I don’t understand why people like Con Air so much. It’s fucking terrible.
If you guys love the action and comedy in this movie than you two should check out Broken Arrow(1996) starring John Travolta and Christian Slater! It's directed by John Woo! And John Travolta plays and awesome bad guy in that movie like he has in Face/Off!
we have a copy on DVD and my dad watches it at least once a year. It's really fun.
I still remember one of the stupidest tag lines ever from that saying "And for the first time ever, a high speed chase with Humvees!!" or something like that.🤣🤣🤣 BUT, I love that freaking movie!!! Had a serious crush on that park ranger lady.
@@clevelandcbi Samantha Mathis is the only good thing about that movie.
@@BDogg2023 Travolta being an action villain was the best thing about it.
@@jp3813 _"I said, goddamn what a rush!"_
5:56 that reaction! ROFL you boys literally made me spit out my drink.
“I’m pregnant.”
“AHH!””AHH!”
I know, I hope his kids never see that...ever...lol, if he has any.😂
YES!!
LOVE THIS MOVIE!!
DIE HARD ON AN ISLAND!
There were talks of a Sequel that was going to have Goodspeed, Nic Cage, going on the run after he is accused of selling the microfilm on the black market, while trying to prove his innocence. This was cancelled as Sean Connery, RIP, retired from acting, Michael Bay was too busy working on BAD BOYS 2, The Island, and Transformers, Nic Cage was working on the National Treasure films.
I feel like that could've been a total classic from the late 90s. In an alternate reality it's making it's deserved waves in the reactionsphere.
Goodspeed, Mason, & Hummel could've gotten their own prequels. Maybe less action for Goodspeed though for character consistency.
You guys really need to watch the movie "Falling Down"
The Rock is one of my favorite Sean Connery films ever and it also has one of my favorite movie quotes of all time. “Losers always whine about their best, winners go home and f-ck the prom queen!”.
As far as the SEAL team leader essentially putting himself and his team in a no win scenario? If he surrendered, now Hummel has more hostages. I also look at it like this. Michael Biehn, the team leader, gave that speech hoping to maybe convince the Marines to change their mind. Also, if him and his men are dead, they can't be leveraged as hostages. Also, if by some MIRACLE they maybe managed to kill Hummel in the ensuing gunfight, maybe the other marines would have stopped with no leadership? Wild conjecture I know but I always saw the scene as a no win scenario. Maybe he knew the marines were going to kill them anyway if they were willing to break their oaths to take a whole entire city hostage.
I just thought that they took that oath to die defending their country at all costs and so they did. The young one as well. He didn't want to be the one who the brass would probably think "chickened-out" on the fight because he was the only one who came back alive.
This is the US military. If the top leader is dead, then the 2nd in command will assume command. Force Recons are highly trained, skilled and very independent.
I feel if he surrenders then Mason and Goodspeed wouldn’t have had the chance to complete the mission.
Sorry, but there is not a whole lot that is more dangerous than Marines WITHOUT leadership to rein them in. Officers are like the speed limiters on go-karts at indoor tracks...remove them from the equation and things escalate quickly...
Michael Bay's 2nd film sandwiched between Bad Boys (1995) & Armageddon (1998). The first of the Nicolas Cage 90s action trilogy followed by Con Air & Face/Off the year after. One of the many Die Hard scenario movies of the 90s along w/ Speed, Air Force One, Cliffhanger, Broken Arrow, etc... The best thing about this though is that it feels like a crossover between three main characters: Goodspeed, Mason, & Hummel. Each of whom can easily carry their own prequels.
The Rock, Con Air and Face/Off. The Beige Volvo Trilogy!
Those are fun films. My dad and l enjoy watching them. We also like The Long Kiss Good Night and The Negotiator.
My dad would yell "Zeus's butthole!" whenever he stubbed his toe or something. I miss him a bunch
My mother always said that Sean Connery was my real dad.
The Rock (1996) on Octokrool and Cinebinge on the same day!
coincidence?? that's what they want you to think...
This is s 007 movie... just putting it out there in case no one else says it
There is a theory that the Mason character is actually James Bond after betraying MI6
Top 90's action, Sean Connery basically playing a retired James Bond!.
According to the Chilcot report, an allegation in an MI6 report about Iraq’s supposed chemical weapons capability before the 2003 war to remove Saddam Hussein appeared to have been lifted from this film. A section of the inquiry’s findings about the build-up to the conflict in the autumn of 2002 found that MI6, formally known as the Secret Intelligence Service or SIS, feared a source might have taken inspiration from The Rock,. The report details how MI6 sent information to “a small number of very senior readers”, including Tony Blair.
Sean Connery character is the actual James bond. The timeline checks out with James bond story and history
I loved this as a kid! Great memories 😊❤
One of the first movie I remember seeing and thinking the bad guy wasn’t a villain and actually had a pount
Amazing movie,amazing cast,amazing music...amazing EVERYTHING!!!One of my all time fav movies!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You guys are my favorite movie reactions channel! Please don’t do the trend of breaking bad, or the last of us. Blah blah blah. You guys do great movies, 80’s, 90’s classics. Please keep this format and movie selections. Awesome work you two!
I hate when reactor do the same movies.. everybody is different I guess
@@tellmeajoke4645 I’m subbed to a handful of reactors and every couple of months they all release reactions to the same exact movie within days of each other. It’s weird. They’re all usually movies I like though so I don’t really have anything to complain about.
The Sopranos would be right up their alley.
@@jjc5871 I think it has to be the fans and patreon subscribers that are doing this. I saw two reactions to the same 80s movie on the same day one time!
@@jjc5871 I was JUST thinking the same thing! Is it coincidence?? Because I don’t get how that ends up happening.
This movie is incredible. Easily makes my top 10 movies of all time.
It's definitely a fun action film
This is still one of my favorite movies. When I first saw this, I too had a problem with the SEAL team getting killed off in the shower room but it is Hollywood and Stanley & Mason are the main characters.
Fun fact: the Navy Admiral with the mustache is a real deal SEAL and military advisor for this and Tears of the Sun with Bruce Willis. Have a great weekend guys!
Great film. Good fun and it's always nice to theorize if Sean Connery is James Bond in this movie or not.
Michael Bay always adds an unexpected dramatic situation, like the scene in the shower, where it seems that everything is going to go to shit and the mission is going to fail, in Armageddon he did it too, at one point in the space mission, something happens where it seems like everything is going to fall apart, it's okay for me to add an unexpected wow factor, it works for me.
Great cast such a classic action movie glad you guys finally seen it.
Some movie conspiracy theories, say The Rock is a Bond movie. The years match Mason was in Alcatraz between (You Only Live Twice 1967) and (Diamonds Are Forever 1971) with (On Her Majesty's Secret Service 1969 With On George Lazenby as Bond).
Link to the full conspiracy th-cam.com/video/9FdnevXjqdc/w-d-xo.html
BUT it´s onley a conspiracy :)
The timeline matches perfectly. This IS the final Sean Connery Bond movie.
This is Sean Connerys' last James Bond movie. RIP to the best Bond.
Michael Bay's latest flick, Ambulance 🚑, would be another great watch. Nice throwback, to movies like The Rock.
Recommendation for you to react: Evil Dead II (1987), this movie is excellent and hilarious.
Yes! And then "Army of Darkness"
This is a good movie, other great action movies are the Pierce Brosnan 'James Bond' movies.
I'm really glad you guys are watching this movie. There have been rumors this is unofficial James Bond movie.
Connery is playing Bond. Hints are all through it. Example: "Im Goodspeed" "Of course you are." Verbatim from one of the Bond films.
I love this movie completely. The casting is still one of the best of any action ever made. It gives me Con Air (1997) vibes every time I see it. I was disappointed when the Navy Seals get massacred. I still hate when any fight or gunfight is totally one-sided in any series or movies. The Navy Seals should have definitely been able to kill a few of the Marines. That aside, this will always be a badass movie.
You obviously didn't watch "Revenge of the Sith". Besides, Navy SEALs aren't invincible.
@@eatsmylifeYT Actually I have seen Revenge of the Sith. When did say anything about Navy Seals being invincible? I said I hate one-sided fights and gunfights. No matter how many times they have them.
I’d love to see you guys do some type of classic comedies like marx brothers
There is a popular fan theory that Connery is actually his James Bond. Timeline roughly lines up that he simply got caught and he got left to rot.
Tuco, Dr.Cox, Candyman - best movie military squad ever)
I remember watching this in the theater with my dad. One of my favorite memories. Having seen some of Connery's Bond films on TV, with my dad, and The Untouchables and Indiana Jones 3, I was a big fan. As was my dad since he was a kid when he was Bond. In this movie, they kind of hint that Mason could very well have been interpreted as "old Bond, " since he was a Brittish operative in the 1960's. Love this reaction. Would love to see you guys react to Connery in his Bond films.
I was going down memory lane of seeing this with my dad. A few times. It was so much fun.
And we had the same history of loving him as Bond & in the Untouchables and Highlander.
i LOVE this movie. These kinds of movies were always so insane in the theater with a full crowd.
AND EVERYTHING you guys didn't like i agree with, lol. I remembering being very confused with the Marines when i saw it in the theatre. Real Marines don't act like that. My bro in law was a career Marine and saw combat in the Gulf in the 90s. NO WAY would he have just gotten killed like that.
Though it’s not explicitly stated in the film, the details are set up where Mason COULD be James Bond 007. Mason was captured around the same time the role for 007 changed, he was a British SAS Spy..
So the fan theory is that Mason is the original James Bond. Who was captured during a mission they even say Mason isn't his real name. There's more to it but not gonna put it all down. Just a fun thought.
I forgot this movie existed! Thanks guys....and thank God for Mr. Sean Connerry Yummy!
having lived in san fransico i love the part when they destroyed the metermaid cart to bad the metermaid wasn't in it
years before playing Tuco, Raymond Cruz was amazing as an l.a. detective in The Close and Major Crimes. toughest detective on the shows with the kindest heart.
The Michael Bay camera pans out of Nicolas Cage after the car scene chase was like Will Smith and Martin Lawrence camera round panabout.
you should see ALL of the Sean Connery's movies cause all of them are just great.....such a great actor..... always good to see your reaction 😊
My new favorite quote is "Let's write an angry letter first and see if it escalates to terrorism."
It's about time these guys finally watched The Rock!
One of two of my favorite Michael Bay films, next to The Island.
Great one too!
You guys have the best reactions! I love it. If you're going to do a series, I wish you'd consider REACHER. It's 8 episodes and I haven't seen many channels react to it. Thanks for this one.
Commander Anderson of the Swat Team was Micahel Biehn from Terminator
I think the fact the main villain actually had a sympathetic cause was an interesting and smart choice. He wasn't a bloodthirsty killer, just a misguided good man who wanted some justice for the families of the soldiers who served under him. Evil baddies are generally a dime a dozen, and often forgettable. But when you can empathize with the villain, it can deeply enrich a story.
That shower scene only happened because of that marines unique addition to the sensor that no one else but him new about. The seals would have disabled the sensor in any other circumstance.
Sean Connery is such a great actor.
Goddammit you dorks.your commentaries after the movie are the best on youtube..Jesus h man I'm here for it
I do like that Michael bay was getting yelled at by the studio and Sean Connery told them he was going a good job and to back off. The studio backed off after this and let him create his movie.
Sean Connery's character is James Bond.
The going theory amongst fans of this movie. Is Mason is James Bonds real name. That at the end Connery's run. The UK decides to retire him and basically let's the US bury him and assign a new person to the Bond persona.
"Did they tell Picasso, No Brush!"? More than once I'm sure.
You know that shower scene directly influenced CoD: Modern Warfare 2 mission "Gulag."
This movie is the proove that, a long time ago, Disney made rated-R movies.
You guys should react to James Bond movies!
This is one of my favorite ensemble cast movies ever
ITS HAPPENING AGAIN! all my favorite reactors are doing the same movies right after each other.
Great movie. You should see Sean Connery in The Name Of The Rose (Still as an old man) beside his James Bond movies . Also Nick Cage has some great movies beside Con Air and Face Off. movies like The National Treasures movies (Which are both great), Snake Eyes a great thriller. 8 mm a really dark and powerful movie. The Sorcerer Apprentice a really great fantasy comedy movie.
This maybe the first time since l saw The Rock when it first released that someone didn’t like the Shower Scene.
And you missed that the Seal Leader is Michael Beihn from The Terminator,Aliens,Tomstone.
Michael Biehn (correct spelling) also played a SEAL in The Abyss.
CineBinge and OctoKrool reaction to "The Rock" on the same day? Is it Christmas already?
LOL I love how you guys reacted to this phone. Sean Connery and Nicolas Cage work so well off of each other with their sarcasm and action antics. I know how you feel about the shower scene room. Along with the speech before. Speech wasn't meant to hype them up, it was too humble his man because they had an attitude going in like they were badasses that couldn't be touched. They were going after men who had anywhere from fifteen to thirty years more experience than them wanted them to understand not to go in thinking it was going to be easy. Now the speech in the shower room was his ridiculous way of trying to convince them that he had respect for what they were fighting for but you sell your soul to the government basically as a patriot to defend this country no matter what. Yeah I didn't go along with that idea either. There were actually a lot more scenes cut from the them being picked off but this is what ended up with a film focusing on Sean Connery and Nicholas Cage. Still holds up as a classic film
Seriously for 90's Action Movies The Rock is in my Top 3 for the entire decade...was 16-17 when it came out 🤘 🪨 🤘 🌉
Why was Goodspeed a good driver? Because he was in Gone in 60 seconds.
The "Losers always whine about their best" line I have never forgotten that line. Whenever someone says "loser" in a game I think of that line.
Only two of the SEALs in the shower scene were actors, ALL of the others were active duty SEALs from SEAL Team Six. They argued there was NO way SEALs would go into such a bad location, but Michael Bay argued it was needed for the movie. They went ahead and did the scene, then promptly left the set. Every one of them was piss mad.
Michael Bay got his start by directing the "got milk?" Commercials in the 90s
I loved how you both shrieked at the same time when she said she was pregnant.
I loved the Green Smoke scene because Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 (2009) paid homage to that.
Good movie love the video Octokrool stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
There's a theory that Sean Connery's character WAS actually a retired James Bond
music in this movie is on another level. 10 out of ten
sean connery is the best thing about this film he plays mason brilliantly.
I'm shocked ! Nobody really ever react to this epic film and it's my fav movie of all times with my fav actor Nic Cage 👌🏾🔥
Considered by many as Sean's true last Bond film. The only film of Bay's that I actually like.
Another great reaction from you guys! Would you two consider reacting to a couple fantasy/adventure movies from the '80s? I'm not sure if you to have already seen these, but they were my top favorite '80s films during my childhood. First one is the Neverending Story, and the other is the Labyrinth starring David Bowie and he even wrote the music for that film as well, GREAT soundtrack!
I love this movie! I think one of the big nostalgia parts of this movie is that I believe a lot of the music comes from 1 of the old og rainbow 6 games i had on pc or it is very very similar
This is a movie from back in the 90s, so its probably the other way around. Clancy’s stories go well with that Zimmer sound, so it makes total sense. I might check it out because I love this score.
@@Ivy94F The original rainbow 6 came out in 98 But I'm not sure which one I'm thinking of It's one of the 1st couple. But you're right this movie probably came out before the game
Theres a theory that Sean Connery's character in this is supposed to be James Bond.
In the morgue, you can see the shift back and forth between them. In the firefight, Stanley cowers and is overwhelmed while Mason is in his element, he's been killing bad guys since he was a pup probably. As soon as the shooting stops and the defusing stars, Mason is somewhat timid in the face of such a colossal agent of destruction, and Stanley is cool and commanding as he is in _his_ element.
Stanley owns what seems to be a fairly classic car at the end of the movie, even if it is in rough shape. So I wonder if he wasn't a car guy in his younger days and so knows how to handle himself behind the wheel.
Whenever I get a telemarketer and they ask who I am, I say, _"This is Brigadier General Francis X. Hummel, United States Marine Corps, from Alcatraz...OUT!_ (slam phone)
*Tough to do on a smartphone though
Favourite line -
I'm only borrowing your humvee.
Winners go home and fk the prom queen
Absolute Classic!!!!
One of my favs as a kid.
I'd love to see a reaction to 48 Hrs (1982) one day.
Love this film and the soundtrack. Also Tuco! 🤘
