The Rock ...?

I watched this movie when it came out, and I liked it, but I didn't expect this answer.

It has nic cage, sean connery, ed harris, John Spenser, David Morse, William Forsythe, Michael Biene, and just about every other great extra actor in it.

Incredible action movie cast!!! AND it has one of the best movie quotes of all time -

Mason: "Are you sure you're ready for this?"
Stan Goodspeed: "I'll do my best."
Mason: "You're best. Losers always wine about their best. Winners go home and fuck the prom queen!"
Stan Goodspeed: "Carla was the prom queen."
Mason: "Really?"
Stan Goodspeed: "Yeah!"

I remember Stan Goodspeed's entrance scene. He was in his lab and playing with a toy guy; it's a pretty comical scene. He then handled a doll that had poison gas installed, went home and started chatting with his wife Carla. I can't really describe the sequence well in writing, but it was a smooth yet eventful fine entrance of the character.

i agree - it is an action flick that is regularly forgotten, but when people see it again they remember why it did hundreds of millions of dollars at the box office and was so popular.

another of my all time favorite is Independence Day

Have you seen the new one, Live free or Die Hard? I haven't decided yet, but I think I might like that one better than the first. Smile

I have not, but want to. The other day I had to choose between the new Die Hard and Transformers and we went to Transformers.

The Die Hard movies are great. I liked The Rock, but not as one of my top action films. Con air has more action then The Rock, but it is close.

Probably would be either 300 or Crank. Crank was non-stop from beginning to end, and 300 was just awesome!
