Went to see the A-Team last week. Its frikking AWESOME!!! To be fair I was pretty excited when I heard that they were making this so I had pretty high expectations. I must say I wasn’t disappointed. Its really just a good old fashioned action movie. I thought the plot was well paced and the action scenes were amazing. I would say that its more of a “re-imagining” than the prequel it appears to be. In the TV program there are a lot less guns and no-one died. I suppose you could say the characters in the film were more caricatures of the characters in the show. They all seem to have notched it up a level, Murdock seems crazier here than in the show and Face is borderline sleazy but isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty, which (if I remember) is a bit of a change to the TV character. If you haven’t see it, you really should, if you like a good action flick then you wont be disappointed…remember your popcorn! On a side note another action movie worth seeing, though you’ll now need to wait for the DVD is The Losers. Based off a comic book……does no-one have original ideas any more?? Its also worth a watch. now I’ll just sit back and wait for someone to make a Thundercats movie…….
