Every morning I wake up on

The wrong side of capitalism

“Du, du-du, da-du, du-du-duh”

The Rock is disappointingly less than the sum of its parts, I think. The dramatic tension is all constructed around a communal concept of honour, unlike the Hong Kong films it visually resemble (which work with a confucian idea that honour is something the wise man can ‘roll up’ close to his chest). This leads to too much strong-jawed military angst interfering with the blowing up. On the other hand, it also leads to the sombrely martial soundtrack, which allowed Timbaland to find a sample for Brandy’s ‘I walked away’, so it’s not all bad.
