The Rock (1996). Rock Me Like a Hurricane. 

This one of the movies that defined 90's action. Over the top, cheesy at times, still looks solid and is a lot of fun. So many great supporting actors in this.

There’s something to be said about the stand off in the showers scene between Ed Harris and Michael Bein. For being in a summer blockbuster explosion fest that was some S tier acting from all with fantastic editing and a score that led to a very gripping scene that I will never forget.

Con Air is a movie i just can't stop watching. It's not a good film but it is great entertainment.

My gran grew up watching Sean Connery Bond films and loved them. She also loved The Rock. I always thought that was hilarious XD

The best epilogue to the James Bond series.

The Rock is a minor classic, has a fond place in my heart. Lots of good stuff to enjoy

This movie was just fun, love the james bond reference , the military vets upset at the govt , its just a quintessential 90s movie

There was an incredibly interesting video that put forth the theory that Sean Connery’s character was in fact the Connery James Bond. Going through so many details there wasn’t a single scene or line of dialogue that would make it break cannon. And quite a few things that lined up with both time lines, and gave it credibility. Wish I remembered who made the video.

Thanks for the Twin Peaks joke. Very nice.

The ever expanding clarifications of "The rock, that is the prison not the..." got me every time. Particularly excellent writing in this one chum, nice one. More fatal explosions than a gender reveal party mad me lol. Good stuff :)

I’ve bonded with many a man quoting this film.

I'm all for Nicolas Cage marathon if you're in the mood for covering some movies of him in a row 😁

Great movie, when i first got a DVD player around 2002, The Rock was the 1st DVD I bought. It is very quotable "Your best, Goodspeed", "Your between a Rock and a hardcase", "I drive a Volvo, a beige one" . Also a fun fact, the design of the VEX Poison gas rockets, in the way they shown in the movie was deliberately wrong (they wanted to make them look cool), but the British government took the design from this movie and put into the infamous "dodgy dossier" in 2003 used to justify the war in Iraq. It was later admitted they just took it from the movie, following a Google search, I kid you not.

The JAMES BOND film we deserved!

“We salute you” 😂

The Rock - the best James Bond movie ever made - the real swan song for Sean Connery’s stint as bond 👍

“Rocky, you’re a bum!” I ain’t no bum

James Bond escapes from Alcatraz

As a young(er) man, I didn't 'get' Nicholas Cage. However, I have developed a deep appreciation of his talent, his ability to not take himself seriously, and to just take on any role, regardless of budget or prestige, just to do something new. Mandy, Pig, Renfield, Raising Arizona, Primal. and Colour out of Space, the only decent H.P. Lovecraft adaption. When he appeared in an oh-so brief cameo as Superman in the also-totally underrated Flash movie, I yelled out, scaring the cats let me tell you. By the way Colour out id Space is definitely worth a review.

Instant sub. Thank big flash drive !

" How's Your Bowling Arm " !

I was expecting The Scorpions! {:o:O:}

1996 was awesome!

Like this film a lot. However, I always think they missed a trick in the quips department. When that Irish American bloke is beating up Sean Connery he keeps calling him English. So, when Connery kills him, I wanted him to say, "I'm Scottish you wee shite!"

the sliders

7:30 LOLOLOLOL the fuck, dude??

It's obviously a bond film, which fits in very well when you accept bond is a code name

Thaaa Rock

Subscribed ❤❤❤

con air next 😛

7:24 does this mean Twin Peaks is next on the review list?

I know a lot of people like this movie, but I always thought it was garbage.

Good movie - terrible Script. That's all I have to say about this Movie (I give it a 6.5/10)

Spot On...And I will always love Connery, I'm Scottish... This was his lasht Jamesh Bond role...Q you are a Shite....For Shore Eyesh

Thumbs up just for slagging off the hack Bay.

Stam Fine Squite Good.

Pour one out for microfiche.

Entrapment was very good and Finding Forester is excellent (classic even). So not true that this was Connery's last good film.

Apart, from basically everything about the "Vx" (color, how it works, how Atropine works, etc.) it was a nice action movie... But the final straw was injecting a shitload of Atropine directly into the heart! Hollywood running rampant after firing all advisors and anyone with a tiny bit of knowledge about those things to keep the plot going. 😂😂😂

At this point in his career, Cage wasn't an action hero, nor the walking meme machine that he is today. He'd been in comedies or serious but quirky roles and was seen as a rom-com star as much as anything. When The Rock was released, he'd just won Best Actor for Leaving Las Vegas. Then we suddenly got The Rock, Con Air, and Face/Off back-to-back.

This one and ConAir are the quintessential mid-90s action summer blockbusters.

The Laura Palmer moment broke me. Wonderful dark humor.

"More fatal explosions than a gender reveal party." EPIC COMMENT WIN!!!!!!!!! That was one of your best asides since "Tom Paris is a dick!".

Ed Harris’ General Hummel was a great antagonist

I loved The Rock when it came out and still think it's a great action film.

With all bombastic ridiculousness that Michael Bay has given us this is by far the his best film. Great actors giving their all to make a fun action film. ❤ it.

I just went to bed just as another Stam Fine video dropped... And I have to wait til morning so I don't wake anyone up. 😢

Seeing as you showed a clip from 'Mystery Men' , I think that film should be covered in the near future. An underrated movie.

Thank-you for leaving the swearing in 😊

First time I've noticed your audio engineer, Franklin Martha Farquar

I second the recommendation to visit Alcatraz. The only reason I went when I lived in San Francisco was because a friend of mine's mom was visiting and wanted to go, so I tagged along to be nice. I ended up really enjoying it even though I really didn't feel like going originally. Really fascinating place, and it's very well set up as historic site.

It’s a decent bond movie 😂😂😂

Oh hey! The GOOD Michael Bay movie!

I'm sorry...I actually like the Transformer movies, especially the only 2 good ones.

Refreshing to see you reviewing a movie you actually enjoyed 🤣

One of my favorite Bond movies

Of all the movies Michael Bay made, the Rock is one of them. And I mean it.

thank you for your work!

the rock added "I shit you not" to my vocab

I was trained by the best...British Intelligence. Then "M" chucked me out and replaced me...with FIVE new guys. So you have the best of the best in one man: 007 and the only successful escapee from Alcatraz :)....and robbed a few trains of their gold in his youth. (The Great Train Robbery - also starting Connery).

How about Ghost rider 1 and 2? Amazing how Cage got 2 bites of the apple and not sure if 2 is a sequel or not. Also..Marvel?

Soooo…..when will you be doing Twin Peaks? It definitely ticks a lot of Stam Fine boxes. It could even lead to a series of SF reviews of David Lynch films (at least Blue Velvet).

Stam Fine. Always enjoyable.

Twin peaks incoming 😉 Connery's swearing just feels all wrong now that you mention it !

Even more good jokes than usual.

Nicolas Cage illustrious career.. : - The Rock : - Con Air

The movie Wild At Heart is the best Cage movie.

R.I.P. Sean Connery O.B.E.

I have a big soft spot for The Rock. 😂

Good review and nice TP reference.

He has made a comeback.

Thank God!!!

Notification Squad!!! :D

Forget Never Say Never Again, THIS was Sean Connery's final James Bond performance.

I wonder what makes this sci-fi

I loved this movie!

GOD DID THIS MOVIE SUCK!
