By-the-numbers explosion flick -- no surprises.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 28, 2010

As summer shoot-'em-ups go, this is pretty well executed, with plenty of macho posing and gunfire.

Solidly entertaining without being spectacular.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 1, 2006

he high definition SWAT training footage resembles a US Army recruitment ad, appropriate since 온라인카지노추천 journeyman Johnson imagines downtown LA as an unpatrolled Baghdad, swarming with guntotin' mercenaries pursuing their share of the bounty.

Is there an actual character in S.W.A.T.? A plot? A single intelligent or exciting sequence?

| Original Score: D | May 4, 2005

There is something sneakily gratifying about all this.

Reasonably entertaining for the first half-hour, after which your eyelids will be heavy.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 15, 2004

It's just a shame there's not more substance to the style. Plenty of crash, bang. Not a lotta wallop.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 25, 2003

A sleek but vacant exercise in cop movie clichés.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 19, 2003

A rigmarole of stranded clichés and thrill-free action-movie legerdemain.

Surely something more original than this could have been mined from the history of North America's largest and most professional police force.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Aug 10, 2003

The director, a 온라인카지노추천 guy named Clark Johnson, doesn't shoot action very well, which is sort of a handicap.

You can't get mad at it -- except for the two hours of your life it steals from you.

| Aug 9, 2003

Director Clark Johnson strives for realistic detail and action. Unfortunately, such adherence to technical purity proves to be a weakness for the movie.

Full Review | Aug 8, 2003

There have been far worse movies this summer, but the best justification for seeing this spinoff of the mid-'70s 온라인카지노추천 series is if your date or mate is holding you hostage in the theater.

S.W.A.T. has blockbuster ambitions, but it develops characters and plot at a leisurely pace better suited to the small screen than the big one.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 8, 2003

As summer popcorn movies go, you could do worse than S.W.A.T.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 8, 2003

SWAT is better than Gigli, but so is most outpatient surgery.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 8, 2003

What we have here is a model for the paint-by -numbers, perfectly generic, proudly soulless summer action flick.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 8, 2003

A lifeless trudge through squandered opportunities and god-awful dialogue.
