Featured review
Technically flawless
Now I've never been to a SWAT training nor have I any background knowledge about proceedings. Well other than having watched quite a few shows and/or movies about it. This being one of them. And it could not be farther away from something like The Shield. Even though some may argue that the main guy (also head of the group) in both shows has some physical resemblance.
Other than that though this is more of a clean cut show. The Shield dove into the dark minds and went to the gutter one may say. While the people of this show also have issues, it is nothing compared to the other show. Having said all that this is really and technically really well made. It looks like a lot of effort has been made and a lot of thought has gone into this. The way the team and all act is or at least feels like very close to how they would respond in real life.
Overall the characters may seem a bit one sided at times and if you are nit-picking you can also see some cliches here and there. If you can set those and your cynicism aside, there is a really good show to enjoy here though
