Movie The A-Team

[celtic_pride]

I love it when a plan comes together



Really looking foward to this movie coming out next year, although I have to say it's kind of weird seeing Liam Neeson play Hannibal Smith (especially as he seems so different to the late great George Peppard from the great 80's TV series)

It's also good to see that original series cast members Dirk Benedict, and Dwight Schultz (Templeton Peck and Howling Mad Murdock) will have cameo roles in the film (shame no Mr T though )

Really can't wait for this film TBH.

I was pretty much obsessed with the A-Team as a pre-teen. Mr. T was my hero. I have watched the show back as an adult and it's just awful but oh well, I'll definitely catch this one.

Apparently, they are playing it serious but I can't imagine it will be a real think piece.

Lots of explosions and some wise cracking humour seems more likely. There's something about 4 dudes riding off into the sunset in their van that is ripe for parody either way haha

Liam Neeson just needs to get it on 'Taken' style and I'll be happy!

Better be good... Rampage Jackson walked away from his UFC bout with Rashad Evans for this crap...

EDIT: Can a mod either remove or resize the huge image in the OP.

Well the official trailer has come out and I have to say i'm really looking foward to this one

I loved the series back in the 80's.

It will be interesting to see how the movie turns out.

Would never miss an episode back in the '80's, but can't say that I have seen much of it on Foxtel. Not sure if i'll go and see the movie when it comes out.

why does the term "another mindless action movie" pop into my head?

Came out today, going tonight will report back later.

 

[GreyWind]

Saw it today, thought it was an above average run of the mill action movie. Some pretty good action sequences and outrageous plans with some witty remarks made for good viewing I thought. Would give it about 7/10.

Sums it up well

Very enjoyable movie, didn't do anything wrong imo.

Enjoyable action film with a dash of humour. Too much CGI at the end though, that was distracting. And Jessica Biel really doesn't get my blood pumping.

 

[King Elvis]

Biel was a little bit annoying, the common mistake where the female lead has their toughness demonstrated by excessive bravado and a bit of a lack of substance. She wasn't bad by any stretch, that just tweaks me.

The movie itself was very good though, great cast, (Liam is a gun), story line is solid and pretty consistent in keeping you interested.

8/10

sperm burper?

How was Wikus without his "****ing prawns" in this one?

 

[kaysee]

Just got back from seeing it... I really loved it.

I had some high expectations for this and it didn't let me down at all. Came away with no complaints... i guess looking back now yeah the CG effects in the final scene are a little distracting... but not overly.

Thought it was well casted but thought JB was the weakest but good to have a hot babe to look at.

How was Wikus without his "****ing prawns" in this one?

Thought he was impressive again without quite having as much screen time as the other characters. Actually he was very good either being crazy or normal and at times using his Saffie accent in the right places.

Overall... you know this movies isn't going to win any Oscars or plaudits for script-writing or acting... but it does what it is meant to do VERY WELL. Great cast, well acted, good plot, well paced, great action and some clever scenes/plans.

8/10

Sharlto Copley.

 

[DoubleO7]

Quinton Jackson, in my opinion, did a lousy job; not a very good actor. Overall, I thought it was good film. That Murdock fella sure is funny.

Jackson isn't an actor, he's an MMA fighter.

7/10 for this flim for simply putting her there to stare at. plus wikus was pretty funny.

in all honesty all other characters were crap, b.a especially so.

 

[Notorious_29]

Saw it tonight, thought is was pretty good. Good plot, enjoyed most of the characters and some pretty good action.

Loved the "That looked just like Call of Duty" line, when they AC130 blew the **** out of the house on the lake where the A-team had Morrison captive

8/10.

 

[FootyJunkie]

fun movie to watch, a few laughs, but enough for one viewing... agree that biel doesn't really do it for me either

7/10
