SpecialsTarget Disturbing yet enthralling
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
ctomvelu1 Clever story line has a SWAT team training in an old hangar, only to cross paths with not one, but two gangs who are also inside the hangar, looking for a particular container. Problem for the SWAT people: All they have with them are blanks while the bad guys are armed to the teeth. Michael Jai White and Steve Austin co-star. Fast-moving, with lots of fights and running gun battles. Some comic moments, which help. The big showdown near the end is all too predictable, and Austin isn't required to do much acting (he was much better in "Damage"), but this is a passable video on all other counts. The luscious Lexa Doig is along for the ride.
KineticSeoul I had pretty low expectations for this movie but it turned out a bit better than I thought it would be. The thing that drives this movie is that it doesn't take itself seriously and the constant comedic dialogue makes this movie watchable. Even when the characters get angry and obnoxious it's done in a comedic manner. If you take this movie seriously you might get a bit irritated but if you watch this with a open mind and watch it for what it is, it's actually watchable. I have to admit though the main reason I decided to watch this was because it as Steve Austin and Michael Jai White in the same movie. And they are the main characters in this. So the plot is this, after a group of LAPD SWAT team doesn't do there job the higher ups wanted they get forced to do a training exercise in a warehouse. But in the same warehouse coincidentally two rival gangs are fighting over a briefcase. The plot however suffers from plot holes and very stupid characters, but for a straight to DVD movie it's passable to some degree. For a straight to DVD movie with a very low budget this one is actually watchable, mediocre at best though.5.5/10
Wizard-8 Steve Austin and Michael Jai White definitely have the stuff to be B movie stars, but they need to take care when it comes to choosing the right B movie projects. "Tactical Force" isn't a step in the right direction. While this is far from the worst movie I have seen, there isn't much in this movie that makes it worth seeking out. There are a number of sloppy touches to be found - dark and murky photography, locations (filmed in Canada) that were clearly not the American locations the movie claimed to be, plus a surprising number of unclear moments where it seems that footage was missing or was never filmed in the first place. Also, the movie has a lot less action than you may think it has, and none of the action is particularly involving. The script has the occasional witty line, but its sense of humor is not enough to save the entire film. This movie should only be watched when you can see it for free, and you can't find anything better to watch.
Tony Heck "You want to do this the easy way or the hard way?" After a S.W.A.T. team led by Tate (Austin) get suspended they are assigned to undergo a re-training exercise. During the training they hear something and are left to stop an actual crime, with no real weapons. This will be a hard movie to review. The movie itself is not all the bad. The action is good and it moves pretty quick. The biggest problem with the movie is the dialog. Being an action movie starring a wrestler I can usually overlook stuff like this, but the words were distractingly bad. Lines like "Eat my grandma" shouted before firing a gun really take away from the action and makes you laugh throughout the movie instead of wondering what is happening. This will be the worst comparison ever but the action to dialog problems are "Star Wars" quality. The dialog is that bad, not so much the acting, just the dialog. Overall, a pretty entertaining movie that is made worse by the talking. Action is a B, dialog is a D. Taken together, I give it a B- Would I watch again? - I don't think I will.
