Review of The Sweeney

The Sweeney (2012)
5/10
Nice look but awful direction and story
25 January 2013
The film has a nice look to it. That blue tint looks good. The actors within are okay but not remarkable. The story is utter nonsense and has no logic behind it. And then there is the action. These coppers are absolute useless. The scenes are comical and the logic is baffling. Every single scene the director allows the crooks to do ridiculous things just so the story can move on. You spend the whole film wondering if they are being serious. As for the A-Team shoot outs...heavily armed men carrying heavy bags outrunning coppers...oh come on. The sound is good, the film looks good but the big fail here is the director. He clearly hasn't got a clue! and don't get me started on the coppers ability to shoot straight. Farcical :(

Not recommended, pity
