Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

eric262003 The little facial expressions on the main cast can indicate where the movie "S.W.A.T." is going. From Samuel L. Jackson's macabre smile, Colin Farrell's airy moment of stillness to Michelle Rodriguez's fearless glower. Sure they make those expressions like this movie has a lot to offer, but this film truly lives up to its abbreviated title, it all means total swat.And sure the performers can pose in their stances to look fearless and intimidating, but the story based loosely on the 1970's television series doesn't do justice because the action is awkward and forgettable and the crew behind it gave me the impression that they're on sabbatical. An though this film isn't the worst movie I've ever seen, it still doesn't deserve any kind of praising from me.The diversification of the character's traits might shed a bit of light towards the movie "S.W.A.T." Samuel L. Jackson plays the role of Sgt. Dan "Hondo" Harrelson who collaborates a squad of dedicated and determined criminal fighting cops. Among his squad members are the solemn but intense Officer Jim Street (Colin Farrell) and the tough and fearless Chris Sanchez played by Michelle Rodriguez. It's great that we can get into get into the characters and to some extent LL Cool J's role as Deacon "Deke" Kaye who actually is really on for posing to blend in during group scenes.But then the movie goes falls into the obvious trap of unfulfilling cliché crap. Olivier Martinez is French gangster Alexander Montel who storms into the Los Angeles scene and no sooner does he slash he crime boss uncle by the throat while having dinner together and chimes, "you take my money, I take your life." So we're being fed to the villain right away without any need of introduction because we already know he has evil intentions. And yet the only offensive misdemeanour he was committed to was getting pulled over for a bad taillight and spends the majority of the movie clad in a prison jumpsuit.They also seem to playfully set up a romantic entanglement between Street and Sanchez. They're drinking together and being flirty and the next day he comes to her estate. Are we going to see another side of Rodriguez's acting that is never revealed because her true potential is always sidelined? Well keep dreaming, because once the bell rings, the squadron is off getting ready for the grand climax.The score from the first scene will turn optimistic fans into thinking that the opening scenes should garner some sign of excitement. The opening scene ventures into the middle of a brutally violent hostage situation. But the narrative offers no information about the takers or the hostages. All we get is a lamented soul crying about her life bawling in tears. Who is she? Better yet, who is anyone? It seems that director Clark Johnson seems to care more about the action scenes that have no meaning or reason behind it.And even though we are enlightened to know which cop drinks Dr. Pepper and which one consumes a lot of junk food, but fails to inform its audience as to why Montel is a deviant criminal or even give a damn if he should be locked or to roam free. We are also later awkwardly fooled that the principal friction in the story is not between Street and Montel, but Street and former partner Officer Brian Gamble (Jeremy Renner). It just feels so randomized in delivery.In the end of watching "S.W.A.T." all I can say is that the ideas seem to be in place, but fails to be fully assembled and then decide to just leave it like that as if it's not worth piecing together. It's really all very forgettable. The talent pool of accomplished performers would be better if they never added this movie to their credit on a resume.

adonis98-743-186503 An imprisoned drug kingpin offers a huge cash reward to anyone that can break him out of police custody and only the LAPD's Special Weapons and Tactics team can prevent it. Although S.W.A.T goes over the top some times over it's running time it's still a very enjoyable action flick with a really great cast including Samuel L Jackson and Colin Farrell and i think everyone did a great job the performances for a movie of this scale were pretty good not perfect but not bad also. Also like i said the movie has explosions and action every goddamn second it just never really stopped. I'm going to give S.W.A.T (2003) a A and a 10 out of 10 pretty good action flick.

DesertDogMedia Title: SwatCondensed Storyline: A drug lord gets captured and offers a cash reward in the millions for anyone who breaks him out of police custody. He the tries to make the same bargain with the SWAT officers who are transporting him, so he pits the team against themselves. Notable Acting: Samuel L. Jackson, Colin Farrell and LL Cool J all did a great job at acting their parts, the others were good, but didn't steal my attention as much as the others did. Noticeable Camera work: Establishing shots of the locations Worms eye view of the helicopter Birds eye view of the swat van rolling in 180º rotation while they are on the roof of the bank POV shot of the worm cameraIncorrect Science: A sniper tries to take down a helicopter using a .50 Caliber Rifle, he tries hooting at the rotor and takes down the helicopter. This is incorrect or highly unlikely at best because the air around the blades is displaced so much that the wind around them would throw any bullet off course. In the sewer scene the SWAT guys try and use a claymore mine to blow the hinges of a door, this is also incorrect because claymore mines are a type of fragmentation weaponry, this means they fire out shrapnel and are used for their injuring power and not their explosive power. Overall Feel: You get to see the fall of two SWAT officers and then see their re-birth once they complete training again and get to grow with their new group. Along with seeing how some of them turn on each other at a moments notice. It starts out as a buddy cop movie but then changes into something different. It is still similar to that formula, but it is altered. So that makes the movie interesting and fun to watch ultimately. My review is short because this movie is hard to find online and my ISP has blocked most of the streaming sites I normally use.

poj-man I mean...really...how are you going to accomplish that? After you get the bad guy from the clutches of the law then what do you do to collect? Take a suitcase to some foreign country and then deposit the money in the bank? And yet...people in S.W.A.T. world are happy to seek the reward that is broadcast to be paid. It's yet another lazy Hollywood writing shtick.It's also as lazy as a police officer chasing a LA Laker clad criminal for city blocks only to have a conniption because Samuel Jackson catches the crook for the cop. The police officer and the criminal...after blocks of running...have no shortness of breath. There is not a single bead of sweat on the temple or forehead. Then they immediately discuss a job on the S.W.A.T. team and the cop accepts. No discussion of pay or benefits or Police Union hiring requirements. Nope! This film epitomizes big money, lazy writing and film making...as well as being full of product placement ad after product placement ad. Hollywood mailed it in 100% with this dreck and then they wonder why their films tank.
