S.W.A.T.

ActionThrillerCrime

Directed by Clark Johnson

Hondo Harrelson recruits Jim Street to join an elite unit of the Los Angeles Police Department. Together they seek out more members, including tough Deke Kay and single mom Chris Sanchez. The team's first big assignment is to escort crime boss Alex Montel to prison. It seems routine, but when Montel offers a huge reward to anyone who can break him free, criminals of various stripes step up for the prize. From TMDB

    Before Jeremy Renner got his big break with The Hurt Locker, Marvel & becoming a 2 time Oscar nominated actor, I referred to him as the bad guy from the S.W.A.T movie when I first saw this. #28WeeksLater really is a worthy & good sequel. A morbid, but entertaining & frightening follow up. #filmsky

    S.W.A.T. is the only movie I have ever walked out of (granted, it was a $2 midnight screening so I wasn’t out much). Just a cavalcade of mediocrity and early 2000s cliches.
