Review of The Sweeney (2012) by Marti G — 03 Apr 2013
Good enough airplane-watching fare, but a substandard Dirty Harry wannabe thriller from the UK. No Clint Eastwood here muttering memorable lines. A more charismatic leading man would've helped. Also, an unrealistic romance contrived to make the major plot point was ill-conceived.
The redeeming feature was seeing Damian Lewis in a small role apparently relieved to be speaking his native British again in between Homeland seasons, but God knows why he took this part.
