The A-Team 2010

09 Jun

The A-Team delivers what it promises: over-the-top and awesome action sequences combined with lots of hilarious jokes from start to finish, guaranteeing 2 hours of nothing but fun.

The movie respects the TV show in that it does not change the character’s traits (they are still there, Bosco’s fear of flying is an example) – rather, screenwriter/director Joe Carnahan definitely gave the classic 80’s series the upgrade they deserve, Iraq war and elite forces and whatnot.

The actors also have fun with their roles too: Neeson as the wise and brilliant leader; Cooper as the charismatic Faceman, shirt optional; newcomer Jackson as Bosco, now with more depth and roughness; and Copley in a scene-stealing performance as the hilariously sane/insane Murdock.

The chemistry between the four actors is present throughout.

Jessica Biel somewhat distracts in a routine role and Wilson, like the main actors, looks like he’s having a lot of fun in his role.

The action sequences are nicely directed with a dollop of CGI here and there, but there are also some nicely-handled live-action action sequences to boot.

Carnahan delivers more action here than any other one of his movies, as if he was making up for that lack of action for his previous “Smokin’ Aces”.

There’s many implausible yet (in a sick way) ingenious action sequences throughout the movie – such as the mid-air tank scene! :) nice

The script is nicely written for its kind and provides quite a number quotable lines for the main characters.

The cinematography by Oscar winner Mauro Fiore provides all the grit and glory the action sequences need, and to finish it off, a nice, rousing music score by action movie music veteran Alan Silvestri, giving action cues the only way he knows how.

In short this is an extremely entertaining crowd-pleaser that may really heat up the cool summer streak this year is currently having.

This is a must see, if you seen the original TV series, you won’t be disappointed.

The A-TEAM follows the exciting and daring exploits of a colorful team of former Special Forces soldiers who were set up for a crime they did not commit.

Going “rogue,” they utilize their unique talents to try and clear their names and find the true culprit.

Liam Neeson (”Taken”), Bradley Cooper (”The Hangover”), mixed martial arts champ Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, and “District 9? sensation Sharlto Copley, are “The A-Team.”

have fun! ;) magic!
