S.W.A.T.

Pros: Lots of action. Entertaining movie.

Pros: Cast, well choreographed action, soundtrack.
Cons: Very formulaic, captain was a bore.

I'm not really a fan of big budget, formulaic action peaces, I mean I fail to see the point of re-telling the same shallow story hundreds of times over, yet I had heard a few good things about Director Clark Johnson's (His first directorial film, but ...

Pros: colin farrell has a strong role, Michelle Rodriguez(Mmm mmm good)
Cons: story unclear at times, story is kind of weak (but enjoyable)

Pros: If you cant say anything nice, dont say anything at all.
Cons: The movie sucks on every level - and not in a good sort of way.

How I long for the 1980s - for this was truly the golden era of the Loud and Dumb Hollywood Action M ...

Pros: Will be a big hit among the Hitler Youth
Cons: Disgusting, stupid, and evil.

There is a moment early in SWAT when a poster for the Steve McQueen movie Bullitt is clearly visible in the background. This was a grave mistake on the part of the film makers. This quick allusion reminds the audience that Bullitt is ...

Pros: Action, comedy, acting.
Cons: Predictable, shady plot.

As you've probably noticed, it seems most of the movies coming out this summer are remakes of a TV s ...

Pros: I haven't really trashed anything in a long time. My fangs needed exercise
Cons: to say the least the subject matter deserves far better.

Watching S.W.A.T., the movie, is a lot like eating a Dairy Queen triple cheeseburger. Fast food is marketed and made in such a way as to sell the most possible while causing the least harm, marketed down to the mustard and ketchup packets, while you, the ...
