They Say What They Say

I've pretty much spent the entire day doing laundry and housework, and now I've just finished watching SWAT the movie. Yes I know it's been around for a while, but it sometimes takes me a little while to get to these things.

It was as expected; quite cliched and littered with hokey dialogue and plot holes.

But young Joshua Charles was suitably cute and cocky, right up to the moment he went 'bad'. Of course there was never any real explanation of why he did so, aside from one brief scene in a restaurant where he orders French champagne and utters some silly line about playing in the clouds. I suppose that was meant to purvey the idea that he's living above his means, hence his turn to the dark side.

Anyway, it was watchable and a reasonably good way to fill in a Saturday night with nothing on TV. Now I'm watching Kiss Me Kate. Howard Keel in tights. Oh my.
