…this no-nonsense film version captures what made Thaw and Waterman household names; Sweeney 2’s ‘hard-living professionals against moral-free crims’ storyline still captures something admirably down-at-heel about 70’s Britain law enforcement…

An improvement on its predecessor, with this Regan behaving more like the one seen on the telly.

Stripping things back to their core, it's a more satisfying approach and manages to feel truer to the appeal of the series and at the same time expand upon it.
