Last night on Disney+ using the Star channel I watched the 1996 film The Roc
It starred an angry Ed Harris who was the bad guy, a young Nicolas Cage as a FBI dude who knows about chemical weapons, Sean Connery as the ex British secret agent who managed to escape from 'The Rock' in the 60s, and John Spen has a FBI agent with 'history' with Connery's character.
It's a typical Jerry Bruckheimer / Don Simpson action flick, lots of chase scenes, explosions and more. What I found kind of funny was the soundtrack h Hans Zimmer involved with it. Most of the time I thought I was listening to Pirates of the Caribbean score :)
The movie gets a 6/10 for me. It has not aged overly well but still a reasonable watch.
I feel the other way. When I watch Pirates of the Carebbiean I feel like
I am watching The Rock.
The Rock is awesome.

Sean Connery for Jack Sparrow reboot?... :)

That sounds horrible :-S
Yep, especially given he's dead... the performance would be rather
flat.
Quite the opposite from the Highlander movie.Yep, especially given he's dead... the performance would be rather
flat.
Aww. I didn't actually know that. I guess no one lives forever.

I have to spin up The Rock, or Con Air, soon.

Here is a little piece of conspiracy for you: Sean Connery's character
is actually James Bond (thus the last time Connery played James Bond) There are quite a few websites your can head down the rabbit hole if
your interested. Cheers.
