Review of The Sweeney (2012) by Jeff W — 14 Sep 2012
It's interesting to see a London so unfamiliar it could have been abroad. Steven Macintosh is the only actor actually acting and at least his character fits in with the law enforcement aim of the story.
The thuggish rather than slightly dodgy cops were impossible to side with and repeatedly put themselves and the public in harm's way. Even I know you won't hit your target if you're running as you shoot.
The Orange phone ad showed more promise. Plan B a big disappointment after Harry Brown.
