Renegade Force

why do film directors always insist that actors portray fbi agents as dickheads? also, with the research facilities available to film makers, why do they make idiotic mistakes that mar their professionalism? case in point: in the court room scene where louis mandylor's trial is being held, his character is in full police uniform, including radio and sidearm. why? when the fbi guy walks out of the courtroom, he goes to a lockup to retrieve his sidearm. why was the person on trial allowed to have a gun in the courtroom but the fbi guy had to lock his up? at the scene where the fbi is preparing to storm the building where the baddies are hiding, one scene shows a cop loading the clip for his automatic weapon. that's utterly ridiculous! a cop would have his mags fully loaded before he showed up at an operation. it would be like a soldier loading his weapon at a battle.

"Rogue Force" delivers what it promises, and then some. You would be pressed to find more action per minute in a movie. While character development is minimal, obviously some thought went into the script, and that overcomes somewhat the undeveloped characters. Special mention must be made of the excellent, creative camera work, which greatly enhances the film. Michael Rooker, and Robert Patrick are both believable as the leads, while the supporting cast is merely adequate, and mostly just "cannon fodder". There are a few surprises along the way to the bang-up conclusion. If you enjoy action films, especially those with outrageous body counts, I highly recommend "Rogue Force". - MERK

Rogue Force was a violent, interesting, and sometimes silly movie. I have to admit though, a big part of the reason I liked it is because it stars my favorite actor, Michael Rooker. Rooker is typically great and entertaining, and Robert Patrick is up there too. The violence is pretty gory, which is a plus, and the plot was interesting enough.

It's a low-budget action film. You could do a LOT worse.

I really enjoyed this film having caught it on Channel 5. Both times it was on I missed the start.

Please note this film was also known as "Six Angry Men" over here in the UK.

Michael Rooker is a really underrated actor and this is another underrated film. It's as hard as nails. SWAT Cops kill bad guys, FBI HRT Kill SWAT Cops not before lots of SWAT Cops kill cops and FBI Guys.



You have to see this movie its as Rooker is as hard as nails and Patrick is the perfect choice for the leader of bad guys. This film will have you on the edge of your seat all the way through.

"Rogue Force" is brainless action at it's best. The plot: FBI Agent Matt Cooper (Rooker) has to stop renegade cops who are killing mafia members and other assorted bad guys. It doesn't seem like a problem, but they have gone too far, because innocents are also being targeted. He is saddled with a partner: Helen Simms (Diane Di Lascio) to bring down the ringleader Jake (Patrick).

What "Rogue Force" excels at are the action scenes. All the action is brisk and exciting. The climax in particular is the best. It's just non-stop bullets and mayhem. Rooker, Di Lascio, and Patrick put in good performances too.

In the end: "Rogue Force" is 90 minutes of cool FBI\SWAT action. The plot is routine but who cares when you're having a good time.
