After been a big fan of the old TV show The Sweeney i looked forward to this Movie, but along with many Movies done on TV shows this is a hatchet job. I struggled to stay interested as it was over the top, hard to follow with very little character analysis, in fact the main character (Ray Winstone) you weren't cheering on as a hero, rather not caring what happens to him. The tension between the Police Departments was just so predictable from past Cop shows or movies, and the shooting chase scenes were so over the top they were boring in the end. Really cannot say anything other than terrible, the real Jack Reagan character would be rolling in his grave.

With the array of bust stars this could have been a top notch affair, but it ain't. Sloppy story, poor acting, stupid flashbacks, and cutting scenes when they are just getting interesting. Very disappointing except for new on the scene Misty Knights, who has a long scene with Summer Cummings, which is the best part of the movie. And just when the movie could do with a good closing scene with Minka & Elizabeth Starr it is jumped to the ending. Good too see Starr Productions getting involved in movies of this genre, but it would not take much or stretch the expenses to have a stronger script, put some more effort into the acting and then they would be worth watching and/or purchasing.

A basic plot line, the Duke Of Knockers needs a wife and advertises in the US for a busty wife. En mass a group of busty girls arrive in England to show the Duke that they will be the best equipped to become the Duchess. But the Duke's busty maid will foil all attempts until the Duke realises the best has been there all along. Weak story line but hey there is only one reason why you would be watching this film.
