In this exciting action film directed by Michael Bay and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, Nicholas Cage plays a chemical weapons expert, Dr Stanley Goodspeed. When ex marine General Hummel (Ed Harris) steals rockets filled with VX poison gas and takes over Alcatraz prison Dr Stanley Goodspeed (Cage) is called in due to his expert knowledge in the field. Firstly they need to break in to Alcatraz to manually disarm each rocket. John Patric Mason (Sean Connery) is the only man to has surrived the escape from the infamous prison and is released to help break them in. Mason was jailed for life for stealing secrets such as the truth behine the JFK assasination. A rocky road is ahead on the island and a exciting and twisting story line keeps the audience entertained from start to finish. Superb acting and casting makes this film what it is, a fantastic movie.

The deluxe edition bursting at the seems with extras for lovers of the film.

Disc 1:
Audio Commentary with Nicholas Cage, containing comments from other members of the cast, director and producer.

Disc 2:
