THE ROCK: Michael Bay directs Ed Harris as Francis Hummel, a gung-ho general armed with deadly chemical rockets and aided by violent cohorts, who takes over the island of Alcatraz, holding 81 tourists hostage. Hummel promises to deploy the missiles over San Francisco if Washington doesn't make amends--to the tune of $100 million--to ignored combat victims. A cadre of Navy Seals is dispatched to calm the situation, assisted by the mysterious, macho John Mason (Sean Connery), the only man to ever escape from Alcatraz, who must now help the Seals break back in. Joining them is mild-mannered chemical weapons expert Stanley Goodspeed (Nicolas Cage), who is unaccustomed to such things as guns and military maneuvers. Their high-octane mission is filled with surprises, particularly after Hummel and company quickly annihilate the Seals--leaving Mason and Goodspeed to save the day all by themselves. ARMAGEDDON: A low earth orbit space station is in the middle of a repair mission with the space shuttle when an unforeseen meteor shower obliterates them both in this Michael Bay-directed film. This sudden event sends fireballs hurtling to Earth and scientists scurrying to telescopes. An amateur astronomer is the first to spy a gigantic fireball headed towards the planet and notifies NASA. Turner (Billy Bob Thornton) informs the president of the asteroid and describes it as being "the size of Texas," a planet-killer. With eighteen days until impact, NASA frantically tries to find a solution but ends up turning to an outside contractor. Harry Stamper (Bruce Willis) and his team of oilmen (played by an all-star cast including Ben Affleck and Steve Buscemi) are called upon to save the planet as only they can. ENEMY OF THE STATE: This Tony Scott-directed thriller starts Will Smith as Robert Dean, a labor lawyer unwittingly in possession of evidence related to a serious politically motivated crime. Government agents eager to hide their guilt believe that Dean is onto them, and proceed to turn his life upside-down, ruin his reputation, and frame him for various incidents, thanks to the latest in high-tech government surveillance techniques. In an attempt to clear his name and reclaim his life, Dean teams up with the reclusive Brill (Gene Hackman), a former federal employee who has as much high-tech equipment and expertise as the government itself.
