Movie Review
 

S.W.A.T. is a 2003 action crime movie and is a take on the old television series of the same name.

Tagline: Even cops dial 911

Jim Street (Farrell) is a hotshot cop for the Los Angeles Police Department. When his loose-cannon partner Brian Gamble (Renner) shoots a hostage, Gamble leaves the force, and Street is sentenced to the gun maintenance shop. When Sgt. Dan "Hondo" Harrelson (Jackson) is called out of retirement, he puts together an element, made up of Street, Chris Sanchez (Rodriguez), Deke Kaye (LL Cool J), T.J. McCabe (Charles), and Michael Boxer (van Holt). Almost immediately, they get thrown into trouble as coldblooded Alex Montel (Martinez) kills his uncle (and possibly his father) for control of the family's drug empire. He gets pulled over for a broken tail-light on the car he stole from his late uncle. Since the car is in his uncle's name, the police, who have a warrant for his uncle's murder, arrest him and decide to hold him until they can confirm his identity. After they discover he is, in fact, and international criminal, he offers "$100 million to whoever gets me out of here." All hell breaks loose as multiple plans to get him to a prison are unravelled by different groups who want the money. The final showdown is between a crew led by Gamble and SWAT. All ends well and Montel is finally brought to a maximum-security prison.

In the film's opening weekend, it earned $37,062,535. In total, it grossed $116,934,650 in the United States in 3,220 theaters and when including foreign grosses, it earned $207,725,639 worldwide.
