This is the exception to the rule. No, Michael Bay does not make good movies. Nicolas Cage does not make good movies. Sean Connery hasn't made good action movies since his James Bond days and Ed Harris...wait. Ed Harris is in this movie? Hang on, this might not be as cancerous as we thought at first glance. Oh hey, IMDB, Michael Biehn plays the Navy SEAL CO? What, and Aaron Sorkin had a hand in the script? Ok, so think about The Rock this way: the best elements of the James Bond movies, Bad Boys without Martin Lawrence, if Ed Harris channeled George C. Scott's Patton, a Michael Mann-esque score, and The West Wing's Patriotism combined with The Social Network's quick, punchy dialogue.
