If I did not misunderstand your description, I think you would like to get the XML data and parse it, right? Regarding to this, you may handle with wrong variables in the response callback. You should println(data) to check the XML document.

For parsing XML data, you could consider SWXMLHash. The Alamofire request could look like:

Alamofire.request(.GET, "http://my-web-service-domain.com", parameters: nil)
         .response { (request, response, data, error) in
            println(data) // if you want to check XML data in debug window.
            var xml = SWXMLHash.parse(data!)
            println(xml["UserDTO"]["FilmID"].element?.text) // output the FilmID element.
         }
