 S.W.A.T August 11, 2008
Surely, one of the best movie I've seen on blu ray. Crisp & clear picture, great sound as well. One of my favorite cop movie.
Highly recommend it!!!

I barely remember watching the original series in the '70s, but having just seen this version, I can tell you that it was absolutely fantastic!
"The end." -- Frank Calliendo as Dubya.
FANTASTIC!!!! July 20, 2008
I saw this on a "normal" dvd. Then I decided to see it on BLU RAY. It looks great. Has some good action.

For the life of me, I don't understand why so many dog this movie. It's entertaining, well acted, and the plot is fairly original. As far as rough and tough police movies go, this one is solid the whole way through, with believable action, all sorts of spectacular gun play, and enough machismo to fill a police station armory.
Old-school sergeant Hondo (Samuel L. Jackson) gets a chance to put together an elite S.W.A.T. team, he snatches up the rebellious Street to go along with other police force lepers Chris Sanchez (Michelle Rodriguez), Deke Kay (LL Cool J), Michael Boxer (Brian Van Holt), and TJ McCabe (Josh Charles) hell-bent on proving everyone wrong. (Absolute great casting for a tough-as-nails cop drama!)
The jist of the action revolves around Alex Montel (Olivier Martinez), a criminal who makes an on-air promise to deliver $100 million dollars to whoever frees him. Naturally, every delinquent, desperado, and dreamer sees dollar signs, thereby initiating the cat and mouse game between good guys and bad guys.
Samuel L. Jackson is superb as always, dominating every scene in which he stars, and solid performances are turned in by Rodriguez, LL, and Farrell. The ending sequence is full of intrigue and excitement, with the best (only?) car/plane chase seen in cinema history. S.W.A.T. delivers what it promises: a hyper, cop tale with plenty of fast-paced action sequences, cool, likable characters, and a pretty exciting ending.

S.W.A.T. DVD
Samuel L. Jackson stars as the leader of a S.W.A.T team with Colin Farrell as his assistant in a high action, thrill a minute movie with more exotic guns and other weapons than you can count. Supposedly a very realistic movie, I wouldn't know, I`ve never been a member of a a S.W.A.T team and wouldn't want to be either.
The Team escorts an international criminal to prison who has publicly offered a very large reward ($100 million) to anyone who can get him free. Highly recommended to fans of Samuel L. Jackson and S.W.A.T teams.
