    Such an amazing introduction for a character like General Hummel. Ed Harris's performance in this film was *hypnotic* if you asked me.

Sadly this happens in today's military. Im sure theres no crazy general out there who would put american lives at risk for such a cause but those men and sometimes woman deserve to be recognized.

    @ivansicardo8890 Před 10 lety +414

    Someone asked why the Marines don't salute back when general Hummel salutes. The fact is that he is the one that has to salute them. An honorable officer or non commissioned officer will always salute the honor guard. Honor guards provide funeral honors for fallen comrades. The honor guard also saluted him as well, they carried their rifles on their right shoulders and as he saluted they saluted by moving their rifles out in front of them, in the military that is how you salute with a rifle.

    • @stefan19909
      @stefan19909 Před 10 lety +4

      Well, as far as i know for the US Armed Forces the Honour Guard don't have a verbal command for saluting an Honorary Officer while they march with the Colours (Regimental Flag and the National Flag, Colours is just how we say it in Canada.) They instead just typically touch the rifle's butt while marching with their right hand as if they were going to do a Present Arms Command, but instead the drill movement stops there. (I might be wrong as to how the US do it, im used to Canadian Drill, Which is much different.)

    • @Dieseldickrick
      @Dieseldickrick Před 10 lety +16

      It actually has nothing to do with the Honor Guard, it's the fact that the Colors are not cased, meaning the flag they are holding while processing. Regardless of rank, the ensign is always saluted. It could've been a Pvt holding the flag and the BGen would still have to salute. The notion of salute has nothing to do with dominance, its respect. Saluting an officer is for their legal authority, returning the salute is their respect for those they lead. It's mutual. Rah.

    You may all like the radio communiquè, which I will agree is potent, but what shows the true character of this man is his loving nature. He didn't do what he did for his country, for his military, or for the money. This man did it for the love he felt for the brothers who died next to him and the sons he left behind that he could not get out. This aspect of love is further proven by the fact that he would not do it when his wife was around. For the love of husband and wife is stronger than any other. My favorite quote is this, "No matter what happens, PLEASE don't think less of me.

      Notice the very level delivery; in contrast to the frantic 'I've lost 15 men already' voice.
      The speaker (likely a junior officer) is downright despondent at that point because he knows the answer to his question.
      He knows he and his team are being left behind.

    One of the best openings for an action film, especially when it transitions to the infiltration on the weapons depot scene with the amazing soundtrack coming in.

    one of the best performances of Ed Haris .. i just loved him in this role ! He was born to do acting and lived to do uniformed/officers' roles !

    This movie has everything it needs to be a perfect movie, senior actors to give depth and to guide the actors (Specifically Connery and Harris) younger actors to give the need for guidance (mentoring is a must) and a great score and plot, specifically the reason for Hummel's act of "treason"

    One of the greatest opening scene in the history of action films, if not...films in general. This short opening alone rationalized all of Hummel's decisions...and why his men were willing to follow his path. Mr. Bay, I salute you.

    Micheal Bay is really the top in army movies. He really knows his job.
    Hollywood hasn't made a lot of good army movies. But this one along with a few other ones like Black Hawk Down , Tears of the Sun , etc. is one of my best and favorite one.
    Remembers me that there are men and women in this world ready to give up their lives to others.

  • @Warmaker01
    @Warmaker01 Před 10 lety +3

    "The Rock" was directed by Michael Bay, music by a frequent colleague of his, Hans Zimmer. There's a certain style Bay has always had with his movies, which he tends towards with the summer films he does. "The Rock" was his 2nd flick he directed, and hey! He had explosions galore! Even when showing the title there were explosions!
