A-Team Review




ANTI-SPOILER THE A-TEAM REVIEW

LOOK! IT'S A FRESH POTATO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Description

1000 decibel mayhem,

Impractical situations,

Sharlto Copley,

Plans coming together,

EXPLOSIONS!!


REVIEW: Just plain fun.

Went into the movie expecting very little. Left the theater, pleasantly surprised. I had a blast watching it. At it's heart the A-team movie is a "Popcorn" movie. It never tries to be something it's not. The movie is trying to be an enjoyable, funny, improbable action extravaganza. And it definitely accomplishes this.

Sharlto Copley (District 9), steals the show as an insane war veteran named "Murdock". He stars alongside Liam Neeson who also gives a strong performance as the leader of the A-Team, "Hannibal Smith". The other two stars of the movie round up the cast with two forgettable performances. Bradley Cooper plays the role of "Face", and provides us with his typical performance of generic "pretty" boy. While newcomer Quinton Jackson as "B.A." gives a wannabe Mr. T performance that begs the question, why not just use Mr. T?

Despite two poor performances the movie does end up providing us with some genuine entertainment in the hot summer months. Which is nice to see especially when one takes into account the many terrible movies that the summer of 2010 has provided us thus far.

Eat lots of Popcorn.
