The Rock defintely rocks on blu-Ray!

At San Francisco in Alcatraz, a group of terrorists lead by ex-general Hummel (Ed Harris) who demand a ransom as they threaten to launch missles with deadly gas into the San Francisco bay area if they don't get what they want. FBI chemical warfare agent Stanley Goodspeed (Nicolas Cage) now must join up with former criminal Mason (Sean Connery) to rescue the hostages and stop the madmen from threatening the city.

Explosive and action packed thriller which is Michael Bay's crowning achievement besides "Transformers" delivers all the thrills and chills that anyone needs. Jerry Bruckheimer and the late Don Simpson lavishly produced this movie and Michael Bay was just perfect to do this movie, the movie does co-star Tony Todd ("Candyman) and Michael Biehn. It's got excellent action sequences, terrific performances by the cast, humor, a little romance and a good plot makes this a sure fire crowdpleaser to any action lover out there.

This Blu-Ray makes the movie never looked or sound this great before! the extras are phenomenal like a movie showcase spotlight that shows scenes that showcase the ultimate in HD pic and sound, Audio commentary, World Premier of the movie, featurettes, interviews, Trailers and TV Spots.

The Rock!

This bd version makes a great movie greater! At this price, you should get your hand on it and smell in your dreams.

Great Movie w/ the Best Picture Quality Available

I've always been a fan of this movie, the Rock. Michael Bay catches a lot of flak about his Hollywood-esque action movies, but you can't find anyone that knows action better than him. This movie proved his abilities and put him on the map as an action director. The scenes are beautiful. Wonderful, colorful shots followed by more wonderful shots. The cast is full of great actors too like Sean Connery, Ed Harris, and Michael Beihn.

The disc itself is a great testament to HD media. Very clear picture, especially for a movie 12-13 years old. The audio will blow you away. Extremely crisp and LOUD. It's also packed full of extras, although some are really quite useless. Most extras are in standard def too.

I paid $15 for this movie. Being one of my all-time favorite action flicks, I think the purchase was well worth it with a combination of great visuals, extremely entertaining cast, and a healthy dose of in-your-face-action coupled with it being all presented in HD. You literally get a lot of bang for your buck. ;) Don't knock Michael Bay until you see this action classic.

Great action ride, sound is amazing!

This is a great story of personal redemption, laced with awesome action sequences and spectacular sound. The angles and editing are fantastic, and the "crisis" of consciousness that the characters face, along with the humurous sub plot of Nick Cage's character all blend for a fun, entertaining action movie.

Okay, but not Great

Okay, so I bought a PS3 console yesterday, and decided to get a Blu-Ray movie just to see how awesome it was.

Comparing the BD vs. the DVD in an up-sampling DVD player, there was no discernable difference.

The movie itself is fun -- like another poster said, the plot is something of a stretch, but it's got the awesome Simpson/Bruckheimer explosions, firefights, and camera angles/cinematography.
