When you realize that Hans Zimmer basically soundtracked your entire childhood! Chills.

General Hummel, the General that was loyal to his troops. This scene shows just how tormented the character is. Even helpless to rescue his men

"There not coming for us are they sir". Best most intense line in this movie

"They are not coming for us are they sir"? nowdays, more than ever, after my military service this conversation sends shivers all over my body.. R.I.P those who died for their country, you will never be forgotten ❤

Such an amazing introduction for a character like General Hummel. Ed Harris's performance in this film was hypnotic if you asked me. IMHO, I believe it is his very best performance out there, and General Hummel is most definitely one of my all-time favorite movie antagonists out there, I wouldn't even dare to call him a villain.

This opening wouldn't be as great as it is without the music. Goddammit, especially the first half.

You always salute the honor guard, non commissioned or not. The marines did a gun salute from their right shoulder by moving their guns in front of them. My friend is a marine and told me this.

A lot of action movies open with why the hero does what he does. The Rock opens with why the "villain" does what he does.

When the full on Zimmer score kicks in after the "they are not coming for us, are they sir?" line.... frigging epic.

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.
