Review
S.W.A.T is an action packed film that starts with a heart racing bank scene and finishes with an equally heart racing plane crash / fight scene that leaves the audience in need of an EMT Unit for the adrenaline induced heart attack. The entire cast and crew have created an instant classic they should be proud of, everything from the casting choices to the on-screen chemistry between the actors, to the fast moving storyline and endless obstacles thrown at the SWAT team worked. However, similar to theme song, the film rushed towards the end as if they knew 'time was running out'.
