    I'd say so, but don't expect it to be clever

    its entertaining thats about it

    very simple plot wouldnt challenge a 5 year old but as a dumb action film it succeeds and is one of the better shot ones.

    more swat showing off then actually doing much swatness

    Don't think I will bother going to see this. It just looks like more American "were the best in the world and no one else can do this" rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbishe to me.

    I'll probably see it after my exams if there is nothing else on. It looks fun and Colin Farrell is always watchable.

    My friend described it as "CounterStrike: The Film" which i thought was quite accurate and funny.
    Ending was poor.

    Must admit it looks dreadful. I love the cliche in the trailer

    'This is what we trained for ! '

    Oh please

    Overly far fetched, American "Look at us aren't we great" pile of ****

    Some good action scenes if you ignore the plot.

    Was predicatble and not as good as I hoped, but I wouldn't call it crap, though it did follow the lines of...

    If it's a poilce movie the cilvilians get mowed down, if its a SWAT movie, the civilians and police get mowed down, if its an FBI movie, the civilians, police and SWAT get mowed down, if it's a.... etc etc.

    saw this the other night - was kinda predictable but i wasnt too bothered - it kept me entertained for the duration, had all the ingredients of a non-groundbreaking action movie. its not classleading but its very watchable once off.

    6/10 - non groundbreaking action packed and worth watching
