In my opinon, the extravagance and hilarity in this movie outweigh the lack of a subtantial plot, and as such the lack of devotion to carrying through with an overtly complex allows a slick comedic sense to be inserted into the movie.

Overall a great "mans" adventure that will appeal to a specific demographic. Harshly reviewed by the critics, but nonetheless, a great film.… Expand

Great! Ridiculously misunderstood by the critics! Has its tongue firmly in its cheek and is carried off with wit and sly self deprecation. If academic depth was what they came looking for, then why did they come here?

Now I can remember as a child sitting with my dad and watching the A-Team and loving it and then watching it again in my late teens on bravo and still enjoying it but realising an action series where only 2 people die in the whole thing isNow I can remember as a child sitting with my dad and watching the A-Team and loving it and then watching it again in my late teens on bravo and still enjoying it but realising an action series where only 2 people die in the whole thing is not really that hardcore. This being said this remake had the worrying start of a franchise where every episode they blow up cars but everyone gets out ok and making a flame-thrower out of a butane bottle and a cigar. Now this film is no where near this and is only the A-Team in spirit and this is no bad thing. Take this for what it is a re-branding of the A-Team to modern standards and if you watch it in this frame of mind then it becomes a good, witty action film, there are some one liners in the film which are pure laugh out loud class. There are all the subtle nuances which are from the original series and all the jokes between the characters are still there, but this is by no means and important part so if you've not seen the series it won't hurt you. There are some issues with it if you really want to be critical the portrayal of BA my second favourite character to Dwight Schultz Murdock is a little light, he's great in the action but the philosophy bit gets in the way, in one scene he is quoting Ghandi and then in the next beating down on one of the bad guys. Casting on the whole is very good Liam Neeson is good as usual and seems to be in everything at the moment.

So all in all a very enjoyable film worth watching for anyone. Action From Start to Finish and it doesn't let up much apart from where it needs to. 8/10… Expand

http://tvtastic.wordpress.com/2010/07/09/the-a-team-film-2010/ I need to start off this review by pointing out the film's biggest flaw. No, it's not the fact that it's another example Hollywood being lazy and rebooting another classichttp://tvtastic.wordpress.com/2010/07/09/the-a-team-film-2010/ I need to start off this review by pointing out the film's biggest flaw. No, it's not the fact that it's another example Hollywood being lazy and rebooting another classic franchise, it's not the fact that Mr. T is nowhere to be seen, it's not even the fact that whole movie is just another in a long line of predictable action flicks. No, the biggest flaw in this movie is one person: Jessica Biel.

The young lady can't act, plain and simple and she's poorly cast in every single film she's in. Seriously, is the audience truly supposed to believe that she's not only an officer in the U.S. Army but a Special Forces-type who they actually put in charge of things? Now this wouldn't even be an issue if she were routinely in exceptional films that could withstand her brand of crap or even if she were in truly awful films where should could just blend right into the scenery but she never is. She's always in these borderline-good films and she's always a freakin' anchor that pushes a decent film into the realm of crap-tastic. Honestly, the only kind of films that she should be doing are the ones that involve hand-held cameras, minimal dialog and the obligatory pool boy. The problem she has, though, is that there a thousand other chicks in that particular film industry who look exactly like she does.

That being said, fortunately you experience 20 minutes of phenomenal frenetic action before we even see her dopey self so the damage she normally causes is mitigated. Other than Biel, the only two major flaws in this film are Liam Neeson's inability to pull-off an American accent and of course, the ridiculous "flying tank" scene which is oddly reminiscent of the beyond-retarded F-35 jet scene in Live Free or Die Hard and in both cases I recommend fast-forwarding through them or leaving the room and pretending they never happened.

But, honestly, The A-Team is exactly what you'd expect it to be and surprisingly it doesn't suck because of that. It's obviously a reboot and it's been modernized for 2010, but the casting was excellent (despite Neeson's accent issues) and the characters were written very true to their TV counterparts from the 1980's, and in fact (and people are going to hate me for saying this) maybe even a little deeper and a little better.

The action sequences in this film are fantastic (albeit a little on the unbelievable side at times) the villains are entertaining and there's enough classic A-Team nostalgia thrown in to make even those most skeptical fan appreciate this new take (yes, they do go all MacGyver more than once, just like they did regularly on the show). I think the main reason all of this works is because Stephen J. Cannell is the top-billed producer and it's obvious he was there to make sure that his baby was taken care of.

The dialog is clever and decently written and the film moves at a very good pace and I could think of a lot less fun ways to spend 117 minutes. Is it going to win any Oscars? No, but it is certainly one of the best action films I have seen this year. I hate to say this, but the way this film was done, with the deference and reverence shown to the source material is very reminiscent of last year's mega-hit Star Trek and yes, I would know. And rest assured, like Star Trek, it was made very clear at the end of this film that this won't be the last time we'll be seeing these beloved characters on the big screen.… Expand

Criticism of Blackwater mercenaries in the Iraq war (as well as in New Orleans after Katrina), and ideas about a financial crisis come together to form a little conspiracy. Unexpectedly funny. Fast-paced action entertainment.

The A-Team quickly lets you know that your in for an OTT ride of pure ladish fun with 4 crazy soldiers, and any attempt to read to much in to the reality of most of the situations will just be met by laughter from those who actually get what the film's about. The characters are portrayed very well too, with Face & Murdock being 100% bang on for the roles. Smith isn't far behind but BA is slightly, he's still good but a 7/10 compared to the rest of them and a bit more fisticuffs with him wouldn't have hurt. It's just junk-food OTT action at it's finest - one critic posted "If you're looking for logic or finesse, The A-Team can be numbing" - that's like expecting romantic tension and sophisticated dialogue in a Bruce Lee film.

It's not exactly food for the mind, but it does feature a likable cast of hilarious characters.

The movie is action packed, hilarious, suspenseful, and it keeps you on your feet not knowing what is going to happen next. Its worth a watch if you have the time to view it.

The film is packed with exiting and entertaining scenes that's also is fun to watch. The amount of action is the best thing about this movie, it’s massive, and I never got bored!

The A-Team is both cool and touching to watch, and combined with great music is this film much better than The Expendables (2010), even thought the ending could have been better.

The A-Team is pulpy, campy action movie cheese. But, that doesn't mean it's a bad film. The shoot-em-up violence and overall feel of the movie emanates The Expendables. What a coincidence, considering both movies are from the same year.

The A-Team is far better than I expected. I didn't watch the television series it was based on but I knew that it would be a struggle trying to replace the now famous characters.

Liam Neeson is great as the group leader Hannibal and Bradley Cooper does well as Face. Rampage Jackson was also stronger than I expected as Mr T's character is the most difficult to portray effectively. The whole A-Team had great chemistry together and provided as many laughs as thrills. I'd like to see a sequel.… Expand

A movie not many expected and many thought unnecessary. To my surprise they did it really well and earned my respect.

To my surprise they did it really well and earned my respect. The A-Team was one of the most successful TV series from the eighties and is considered a cult classic. The TV series was the story of 4 former special forces members and Vietnam war veterans that were framed for a crime they did not commit. They however escaped and helped people in need. It had a great and rememberable cast with George Peppard, Mr. T, Dwight Schultz and Dirk Benedict. They had a great chemistry together. The episodes while having the same structure where exiting and enjoyable. They got the combination of action and humor right. Also a plus was the building of stuff or upgrading vehicles that helped them overcome the odds. Like I said it was a well received, a fondly remembered series and my favorite from the eighties. So the stakes were high and many remakes failed over the years and some had even the original cast. They transferred the set up to the modern times. The story is good for this setting and I consider it respectful to the source material. The humor work's well and together with the action rounds up the revival. I hesitate to write this but while they transferred the setting well to modern times it feels also a little bit off but strangely I will blame the modern times :-). Lets go to the cast. While I think the original A-Team is unbeatable the new cast is remarkable good. Liam Neeson, Bradley Cooper, Sharlito Copley and Quinton Jackson do a great job in playing the beloved characters. The rest of the cast delivers also a good performances. The stunts, sets and score round up the experience. Overall while not as good as the TV series (maybe partly influenced by nostalgia) it is a fitting remake. It is remarkable that they made something in this category that is not considered a failure. Look at all the newer Terminator, Die Hard and other sequels or remakes of older movies and series. It is mostly guaranteed to fail with some exceptions. So I give it a good rating and pay my respect.… Expand

If you're looking for a fun popcorn flick, then you don't need to look any further. funny funny funny.
The A-Team is a can of soda like a good, cold can of soda on a hot summer day, it's curiously refreshing, tasty and it hits the spot.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is an action adventure film, with some comedic elements also present. Its clearly a homage to the cult 80s TV show (of the same name). I found it an easy watch, with plenty of effects (mostly explosions and gunfire related visual effects), a relatively fast plot pace throughout and some good performances. Unsurprisingly (to those who remember the TV show), its very macho in tone and the camerarderie between the various team characters comes through strongly i.e. their quite cocky and full of bravado. There is a strong theme of personal one-up-manship and ingenuity . They all come across as quite youthful, although visually some are more youthful than others (comparing, say, Liam Neeson to Bradley Cooper (sorry Liam!)).

The dialogue is fairly unimaginative, yet decent enough I suppose, not the worst I've ever heard and the film in general is certainly relatively entertaining. None of the main characters seem to be entirely, or overly, struggling with the situations they find themselves in, certainly for the most part. Of course its easy to say that its hardly the most realistic of films as far as the plot is concerned but then that is often the case with such action films. I found it an entertaining watch regardless though. There were a few scenes that made me laugh out loud, one involving Hannibal Smiths attempted escape from prison and another in which a film viewing has clearly unintended consequences which the audience seems to love, much to what would normally be peoples confusion. I won't explain those scenes anymore but I thought they were quite amusing, although (as far as the first one is concerned anyway) I do have a bit of a black sense of humour and it may not appeal to all. Suffice to say, this isn't a film to be taken especially seriously.

The musical score used during particularly tense scenes was quite good at making me feel more tense and keen to see how things would work out, what the outcome would be of fights, escape plans and other things. It consists mainly of uptempo rowdy tracks, although nothing rave or techno based. I would say that there's definitely an element of cheese present but I wouldn't say it ruins the film. Other cast members include Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson as B.A. Baracus, Jessica Biel as Charissa Sosa, Sharlto Copley as Murdock and Patrick Wilson as Lynch.

I felt that one or two plot elements were a little 'forced', such as the romance between Charissa and one of the two main characters but then I feel like thats sort of to be expected. Some parts of the film are a bit predictable but then I feel that the comedy works well to send it up, if you know what I mean. Its a pretty frantic film and doesn't leave the viewer with a great amount of time to sit and analyse whats going on, what the likelihood may be for the sequence of events or anything like that. I liked the use of camerawork during one scene which is set down the side of a very, very tall building, where people are lowered via ropes further and further down it, as their being targeted. The camera swaps between shots showing the relevant people face on and showing them from the ground up, highlighting how far they have left to travel and from less traditional angles, like diagonal on, all interspersed quickly to presumably add to the sense of tension and fear in the viewer, leaving you wondering if the people involved can possibly safely make it to the ground. In other scenes, primarily chase related scenes, the camerawork is quite jumpy and cuts very quickly between one angle and another, so if you find unsmooth camerawork to be a real issue, if you tend to get potentially queasy by such things or similar, then I'd say you might want to give this film a miss. Otherwise, however, I thought it was good at making me feel more engrossed in the film and wanting to find out what happens - if anything there's the obvious sense of disorientation but that helps you to really want to find out what happens to the relevant people, so I guess it primarily works in the viewers favour.

Content wise, it contains pretty much what I'd imagine most people would expect. By that I mean some uses of strong language and moderate violence including gunfights and some bloody violence. There is obviously an element of intensity during the majority of the film and as such younger viewers (i.e. children) may find it slightly frightening, due to the themes, the worries of enemies being around and so on. The only other thing perhaps worth mentioning is that one of the main characters, Hannibal smokes large cigars and is shown with them in various scenes, so if your not keen on kids or young teens seeing people smoke on screen a lot then this may be best avoided. Drugs also play a role, although its not exactly greatly glamorised by any means but characters do knowingly ingest drugs. The film carries a 15 rating to reflect the content it contains.… Expand
