Samuel L Jackson and Colin Farrell star as SWAT team members who have in the past made more than a couple of mistakes. Eventually given a second chance they find themselves being attacked from all angles by gangs of terrorists, all after the one hundred million dollar reward offered on national television by the captive.

Not the greatest film ever made, due mainly to it's predictability and some extremely odd scenes in the middle of a city which shows the chaos that could ensue if all of the gangs suddenly decided to revolt.

If you like action and you don't see most film twists coming a mile away then this one may be for you. It is rather gory at times, which you may see as a good or a bad thing depending on your opinion. However, there is some light hearted humour to keep things going.

Definitely worth a peek if Return of the King is sold out.
