S.W.A.T. (2003)
Synopsis: Jim Street is a former S.W.A.T. team member, who along with his partner Brian Gamble, is thrown off the team in the aftermath of a controversial decision they made during a robbery/hostage standoff. Gamble quits the force in disgust, but for Street, being a policeman is his life and he agrees to a demotion, hoping to someday have the chance to redeem himself and once again wear the privileged S.W.A.T. uniform. He gets that chance when team commander Dan "Hondo" Harrelson is assigned to recruit and train five top-notch officers for a new Special Weapons and Tactics unit. After weeks of rigorous physical training, the new team is immediately thrown into action when a notorious drug lord, offers a $100 million bounty to anyone who can free him from police custody. As they escort the kingpin out of Los Angeles into the hands of the Feds, the S.W.A.T. team is pursued by a ruthless and well-armed band of mercenaries

Brings back memories of Combat Mission's Bravo Team. {**sigh**}

Lot of action in this movie, and Colin is in it. Oh yeah, I am so there.

I'm seeing it either Saturday or Monday.

I love summer movies!
For their complicated plots, wonderful directing...
Yeah, who am I kidding, Colin Farrell, Olivier Martinez, heck LL cool J!

How can I not see this movie? One good reason?

Zhora · 08-09-2003, 01:11 AM

I'm there!

Woohoo!

Sounds like a fun one.

CashMoneySoviet · 08-09-2003, 11:07 AM

God, I want to see this, although reviews haven't been too great, I still want to see it.

The lines in the trailer by Michelle Rodriguez alone are enough to make me not want to see this movie.

Other than that, though, what I've seen looks decent.

It's supposedly based on a 70's TV show, which I never saw.

Saw it last night. It had some good, fun action, and the actors were very believable as SWAT operators. The story was okay, too. My friends and I enjoyed it. All I have to say about Colin

I just saw it, I liked it a lot, but in my opinion Terminator 3 was better. The movie was overall good, can't wait for the DVD, thats gonna have some good stuff.

Overall 3.9 out of 5 for me

I wanna see this too.... Does anyone else notice that all of a sudden America was BOMBARDED by Colin Farrell (not that there's anything wrong with him), but WOW.... It seems like if he doesn't have a movie opening in a week, he has a rental coming out!
