The Rock

[NFS4]

Haven't seen it in ages, but decided to fire it up on DVD. 90's, mindless goodness

John Mason: Your "best"! Losers always whine about their best. Winners go home and ****** the prom queen.
Stanley Goodspeed: Carla was the prom queen.
John Mason: Really?
Stanley Goodspeed: [cocks his gun] Yeah.

Definitely a solid mindless action movie. GREAT soundtrack too by Hans Zimmer and Harry Gregson-Williams

"i never saw you throw that gentleman off the balcony. all i care about is: are you happy with your haircut?"

I love that movie! It's something I can watch over and over again.


And, I second Hans Zimmer as the best soundtrack producer there is, his work in Black Hawk Down was brilliant.

I watched that movie when I had my tonsils taken out. I love that movie.

EDIT: and by tonsils I mean appendix.

 

[KeyserSoze]

I loved everything about this movie. Soundtrack, action, dialogue (Soo many great one liners), etc.

One of my all time favorites, have the DVD and CD.

Stanley Goodspeed: I'd take pleasure in guttin' you boy. I'd take pleasure in guttin' you... boy. What is wrong with these people, huh? Mason? Don't you think there's a lot of, uh, a lot of anger flowing around this island? Kind of a pubescent volatility? Don't you think? A lotta angst, a lot of 'I'm sixteen, I'm angry at my father' syndrome? I mean *grow up*! We're stuck on an island with a bunch of violence-for-pleasure-seeking psycophatic marines, SHAME ON THEM!
Stanley Goodspeed: Anyway, I only got one chemround and there's two left. Mason?
John Mason: Yes, I'm here. I was just thinking how wonderful it was when the inmates weren't allowed to talk in here.


:laugh:

As others have said, Hans Zimmer did a great job with the soundtrack. He also did the soundtracks to Gladiator, Black Hawk Down, and Crimson Tide, also good ones:thumbsup:
