Not sure how many of you recall the bank robbery that turned into a full scale shootout in LA some years back, the Criminals had automatic weapons and body armor and pretty much held off the LAPD for a time.
This new movie on FX Sun will be about this event, it looks to be pretty good.
Cool, I will check it out. Simular premise is used in upcoming SWAT film. I love when they use rifles and automatic weapons, body armor, and SWAT/SDU teams in action films :)
Despair from the looks of the previews in seems to capture the actual event detail for detail, good cast too.
i herd an ad on the radio the other day about this film. seems interesting, but i dont know...
didnt the cops have to go to K-Mart to get bigger guns? i seem to remember something like that happening.
I wanted to check this out, I remember watching the event on the news and thinking it was almost as cool as that guy who stole a tank and drove down the city streets.
It was a guns shop.Quote:

I missed it except for the last 45 minutes, which was pretty entertaining. I hadn't watched TV in a while, so I was surprised that the guy could flip people off and not get blurred and people could get their heads shot at. Pretty crazy.
Damn, I missed it :( Is it going to be replayed on FX again? If so, can someone tell me the date, so I can tape it?
It's on FX, home of The Shield -- that show gets away with using "asshole" and "shit" and pretty graphic violence.Quote:

They replayed and are airing it again now. So maybe this weekend due to interest in the SWAT movie they may play it again in the near future.
I think that why they doing it, since SWAT definately have some simularities to the actual events in this movie.
I will give it some more time to come to dvd, and rent it then.
