The Rock

[Ashley, Mark]

Where did you see it?

By the way has anyone seen the latest Eddie Izzard video (I think it's
called Dressed to Kill), with the mini mockumentary at the beginning about
Alcatraz?

I agree totally, Ed. I can spot a movie that's supposed to be fun. (Hey,
I can "do" fun!) But you're right. Michael Bay *wishes* he was Scorsese.

I like good action movies, or even silly action movies, as much as the next
guy, but this one was just so sickeningly predictable, so badly acted, so
embarrassing to watch that I bailed out. 'Course, with the edited curse
words, that might have made it less "funny."
