Con Air was an enjoyable romp. The best lines were delivered by the guard:

USS Indianapolis. Men of Courage was an absolute disgrace. You actually felt embarrassed watching it. A total insult to the men of that ship.

Back in Uni someone taped our three piece band playing a good set. One of my flat mates dubbed over it with the fucking Rock. I hate that fucking film.

The rock , con air, and face off, are awesome films , if you don’t enjoy that sort of cheesiness then you have no soul. They are up there with the Expendables movies.

I can't believe that Gone in 60 Seconds isn't getting any love on this thread

Yeah, Con Air was an enjoyable romp... The Rock too, I guess... Face Off I don't remember enjoying as much, but there's no doubt they are all high-quality action flicks.
Cage has had to do a lot of shite films to service debts, so the quality has varied but there's no doubting his acting ability. Only his consistency. I thought he was very good in that one where he's the Vegas cop who finds out his mate was behind an assassination at a boxing match. It wasn't a great film - pretty 'plotline-by-numbers' - but Cage was pretty decent as a scumbag cop.

Gary Sinise as the crooked cop bad guy is pretty reliable, too.

those guys are incredibly popular for their summery pop laden bbq reggae output.
I actually lived at 1 Hyde St. A few years before fireman were getting bottled at the Hyde St keg race. Our version was very relaxed and civilised in comparison.
