Before Michael Bay became known for franchises, he created The Rock, a quintessential example of his filmmaking style. Released in 1996, this action-packed film features an FBI chemical weapons expert and a former British prisoner who team up to thwart a rogue general threatening San Francisco. The movie blends heist, military thriller, and action, maintaining high energy throughout. It stars Nicolas Cage, Sean Connery, and Ed Harris among others. Roger Ebert praised it as blockbuster filmmaking done right. The Rock will be available for free streaming on Tubi starting April 1.
