SWAT
- Rating:
- Director: Clark Johnson
- Starring: Colin Farrell
- Details: US / 117 mins / (12PG).
Disgraced cop Farrell teams up with hardened SWAT veteran Jackson to guard a drug baron who has publicly offered $100 million to anyone who can free him. The good-cop bad-cop routine is formulaic but the action is entertaining enough if you're not looking for anything too cerebral.
