The Last Post (2017)
Has the potential but let down by dire action scenes
I was really looking forward to this series, however it is disappointing. I can ignore some of the issues such as the inaccurate process etc. The military action scenes are really pathetic. The portrayal of the SAS was disrespectful , they looked like a bunch of raw recruits . I hope it improves as many of the other scenes work well
The Sweeney (2012)
The Sweeney but not as you know it - a pitiful attempt to make capital from the original
Very few "remakes" work and they tend to vary from good (where you disassociate the re-make from the original) The Man from Uncle being a good example.
One word sums this film up = DIRE.
Ray Winstone's portray of Regan is wooden, unconvincing and looks as though he needs a zimmer frame .
The original Sweeney was brilliant because it reflected reality and was believable . The story is not too bad , but most of the acting is dire (why people such as Damien Lewis got involved is unreal). The actions are just stupid.I actually fast forwarded most of it.
It certainly ranks as one of the worst 10 films I have ever seen, I am glad I did not waste my money on it
