S.W.A.T.

Hondo Harrelson recruits Jim Street to join an elite unit of the Los Angeles Police Department. Together they seek out more members, including tough Deke Kay and single mom Chris Sanchez. The team's first big assignment is to escort crime boss Alex Montel to prison. It seems routine, but when Montel offers a huge reward to anyone who can break him free, criminals of various stripes step up for the prize.

S.W.A.T. landed in mixed territory on release, with critics generally finding it a watchable but formulaic action thriller that does little to distinguish itself from the genre. Audiences were somewhat warmer than critics, suggesting the film delivers enough crowd-pleasing momentum to satisfy on a surface level even when it doesn't linger.
