Esquadrão de Elite

If you watch this and you have a Deja Vu (how french of me), than you're onto something. This is a remake of the British movie "Sweeney". It's not point for point and it takes certain liberties (it's shorter for that matter than the original), but it does have a lot of moments too. The relationship between the Reno character and three other characters in this are nicely drawn out.

Not as fine as those that are shown in the British original. But the charming nature of the cast at hand here and the well shot action scenes, really give it a lift. The important parts have been transfered to this french version, but as said this is a smaller affair (no pun intended). If you've seen the Original you might therefor feel a bit cheated upon ... not unlike someone in this movie!
