| Welcome to the Now Playing Reviews Database where
you can find our opinion of films which have had a cinema release in the UK.
Each of these movies are reviewed from a gay perspective, giving them
both an overall star rating plus our exclusive gay rating. The more stars out of a possible 10, the
better the film; similarly the more pink triangles, the greater the gay interest. A full list of
all our reviews appears below, and this week's current films are found on the Now Playing Main Page.
Most films are now available for rent on DVD and we recommend ScreenSelect who operate an efficient online rental service by post with no late fees and you can keep up to 3 DVDs for as long as you like. If you'd like a film permanently in your DVD collection, then the best prices are normally found at Amazon. | |
S.W.A.T. Movie Rating:  Action-By-Numbers | |
| Lieutenant Dan "Hondo" Harrelson (Samuel Jackson) trains a new, young S.W.A.T. team (Colin Farrell, Michelle Rodriguez, LL Cool J, Josh Charles, Brian Van Holt) for the LAPD. Their training gets put to the test pretty quickly when a rich international terrorist (Olivier Martinez) in police custody offers $100,000,000 to anyone who can spring him from jail. Suddenly, thugs come out of the woodwork, blowing things up and making life hell for the rookie crime-fighters. | |
| The movie suffers from corny dialogue and a by-the-numbers approach to action filmmaking. Add to that so much intense violence that it becomes something of a strain. But if you don't find it a strain watching hot young actors brave a hailstorm of bullets and bombs, this one's for you. |
