A first-rate, slam-bang action thriller with a lot of style and no little humor.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

It's a popcorn-movie deluxe.Full Review

Peter Travers
Rolling Stone

A raucous, in-your-face, commando-style action thriller that makes provocative use of Alcatraz as a lunatic's lair and San Francisco as a sitting duck.Full Review

Peter Stack
San Francisco Chronicle

Although not as expertly-crafted as "Die Hard" or "Speed," The Rock is exhausting in its own right -- and that's just one of several convincing reasons to see this film.Full Review

James Berardinelli
ReelViews

This is a pure popcorn picture that benefits heavily from its trio of highly skilled, charismatic leading thesps, an unusual setting that provides plenty of visual stimulation, and a confrontational standoff that actually stems from a legitimately provocative premise.Full Review
