SWAT. is a 2003 movie & is a take on the old television series of the same name. It is directed by Clark Johnson. Jim Street is a hotshot cop for the LA police department. When his loose-cannon partner Brian Gamble shoots a hostage, they break ties particularly after that of an abrasive superior, Gamble leaves the force & Street is sentenced to the gun cage. When Sgt. Dan Hondo Harrelson is called out of retirement, he puts together a team, made up of Street, Chris Sanchez, Deke Kaye, T,J. McCabe & Michael Boxer. Almost immediately, they get thrown into trouble as coldblooded Alex Montel kills his uncle in control of the familys drug empire & he gets pulled over for a broken tail-light. Since the car is in his uncles name, who had warrants against him, they arrest him & decide to hold him until they can confirm his identity. After they discover his identity, he offers $100 million to whoever gets me out of here. All hell breaks loose as multiple plans to get him to a prison unravel by radical people who want a slice of that money. Posters Of Swat

Samuel L Jackson & Colin Farrell swagger through S.W.A.T., a guns-and-big-trucks macho extravaganza based on the 1970s TV show of the same name, in which police teams are brought in to take care of extremely dangerous situations. Jackson plays a sergeant brought out of retirement to form a new squad, which includes rebellious Farrell & tough babe Michelle Rodriguez.

After a lot of training & head-butting with a smarmy police captain, the squad gets assigned to transfer the head of a European crime cartel whos declared on television that hell give $100 million to anyone who gets him out. Every scumbag in Los Angeles descends to claim the money, turning a routine transfer into a bullet-filled gauntlet. Despite some gaps in logic & a generic flavour, S.W.A.T. will satisfy most action-movie junkies.
