Face off, is brilliant, nic cage and john T turn in very bold and dramatic performances, this film keeps you on the edge of your seat all the time and the plot is brilliantly crafted. This is a very entertaining film, full of great ideas and great acting.
The rock, is a fabulously entertaining film, with great performances from Nic and the great sean connery adds his expertise. This has a good strong plot with plenty going on to keep you interested.

Review: ...A mega-movie that actually delivers what mega-movies promise: strong characters, smart plotting, breathless action and a gimmick that hasn't been seen before... (New York Times, )
...FACE/OFF is relentlessly exciting, thanks to Woo's operatically staged fight and chase scenes and the bravura acting of the two stars... (USA Today, )
