"SAS: Rise of the Black Swan" centers on a special forces operative named Tom Buckingham (played by Heughan) who sets off with his girlfriend Dr. Sophie Hart (John-Kamen) on a romantic train ride to Paris, where he intends to propose. During their journey, a group of violent armed mercenaries called the Black Swans — led by Grace Lewis (Rose) — take control of the train and hold all of the passengers hostage. Tom manages to escape from the train, and then starts his new mission: to save Sophie and the rest of the passengers on board.
"SAS: Rise of the Black Swan" is receiving generally positive reviews, with Peter Gray of The AU Review dubbing it "occasionally messy and never subtle, but aesthetically it's deliriously pleasurable and far better than it has any right to be." If you're in the mood for a heart-pounding action movie with a touch of government conspiracy, a hint of romance, and butt-kicking galore, give "SAS: Rise of the Black Swan" a watch.
