Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
View MoreIn other words,this film is a surreal ride.
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

View MoreA SWAT compound comes under fire from an international terrorist who relentlessly and violently pursues a mystery man who was apprehended by Seattle SWAT after a raid went horribly wrong. S.W.A.T.: Under Siege is a film or a sequel at this point that i didn't expect to like but little did i knew. This movie is action packed from start to finish sure it's full of one liners, over the top action and cgi blood but that's why i liked it in the first place. Plus where else are you going to see Michael Jai White killing a bunch of dudes with a Minigun? It's fun, it's gory and most of all it has Michael Jai White and Adrianne Palicki killing @ss and taking names. I loved the first 2 movies and i sure as hell i enjoyed this installment too.
View More"S.W.A.T.: Under Siege" should delete its writer's credit and replace it with a line crediting everybody who has written an action film in the past. The plot draws heavily from "Assault on Precinct 13" and "Safe House," with a lot of familiar tropes seen in dozens of genre films. What few mild surprises the plot offers generally happen off-screen, although it is not easy to predict which characters will die, who will kill whom and the order of their demises. The biggest surprise seems borrowed from "Showdown in Little Tokyo" and is surprising only because the film hadn't yet developed the characters – although, to their credit, it is a great improvement on the SILT scene. The bad guys who are really good and the good guys who are really bad could have simply worn T- shirts identifying themselves. The dialogue alternates between pretentious, execrable, familiar and unnecessary. Production values are generally adequate, although marred by over-reliance on distracting jiggly-cam shots. However, the fight scenes are capably executed. Michael Jai White is highly proficient and other cast members demonstrate considerable skill as well, including Marsden, Zagorsky, Jaeger and Palicki. The fight choreography is competent, although uninspired. The special effects incorporated into the numerous gun battles are handled well. Advocates of diversity in films should be encouraged by the ethnically diverse cast. However, skeptics will note that most of the Asian, Hispanic and black performers are in background roles and underutilized. The director seems to have attempted to give a couple of them more screen time with prolonged noble demises, but the shots seem more distracting than empowering. White delivers his dialogue with a heavy accent and another character is given an urban 'tude, but as in many films with large casts, the diversity seems more a result of casting decisions than screen writing choices.
View MoreI actually enjoyed this movie - very happy with the quality and the premise - reasonably okay with the direction and dialogue. Granted it could have been even better - anything can be improved - but it was still an enjoyable film which managed to get us to care about some of the characters. Cinematography was good, fights scenes were good and happy enough to give it a 7/10. Sam Jaeger was great in the lead role and Adrianne Palicki is always a delight to watch - and even Michael Jai White did a surprisingly good job. Worth watching!
