The Rock

Alcatraz August continues with a look back on one of the greatest cinema summers of the 1990s! That's right... it's Michael Bay's THE ROCK! The ReconCinemation team continues their vacation with a deep-dive into Bay's arrival & early career, Don Simpson & Jerry Bruckheimer, Sean Connery's continued success, Nicholas Cage's huge career turn, the consistency of Ed Harris, the joy every time Michael Biehn is on screen & so much more! Plus the incredible depth of the supporting cast, how this film compares to other Bay "classics", early memories of the film, it's greater impact in film history & more!

Alcatraz. Only one man has ever broken out. Now, 5 million lives depend on 3 podcasters breaking in... it's THE ROCK!
