Last night on Disney+ using the Star channel I watched the 1996 film The Rock.

It starred an angry Ed Harris who was the bad guy, a young Nicolas Cage as a FBI dude who knows about chemical weapons, Sean Connery as the ex British secret agent who managed to escape from 'The Rock' in the 60s, and John Spencer has a FBI agent with 'history' with Connery's character.

It's a typical Jerry Bruckheimer / Don Simpson action flick, lots of chase scenes, explosions and more. What I found kind of funny was the soundtrack has Hans Zimmer involved with it. Most of the time I thought I was listening to the Pirates of the Caribbean score :)

The movie gets a 6/10 for me. It has not aged overly well but still a reasonable watch.
