When vengeful General Francis X. Hummel seizes control of Alcatraz Island and threatens to launch missiles loaded with deadly chemical weapons into San Francisco, only a young FBI chemical weapons expert and notorious Federal prisoner have the skills to penetrate the impregnable island fortress and take him down.
Editor's Verdict
"The Rock is a pure action/thriller film. There is absolutely no mention of the Christmas season, themes, or iconography in the plot, setting, or resolution."
