The A-Team is a 2010 action movie based on the TV series by the same name. Liam Neeson is the main name on the team. Quinton Jackson, who plays the Mr. T role, is a native Memphian. Sharlto Copley was in District 9, which I recently tried to watch but failed to finish. Jessica Biel is the token female and love interest. We got a kick out this movie. Lots of action. Many explosions. Good guys triumph. A good time is had by all.
trailer:
"Overkill is under-rated." Yes!
Salon opens with this: "For a movie that reportedly required 11 writers and more than 10 years to complete — all without any real reason for existing in the first place — “The A-Team” is reasonably good fun." Rolling Stone says, "It's big, loud, ludicrous and edited into visual incomprehension. But pity the fool who lets that stand in the way of enjoying The A-Team". Empire concludes "An energetic escape from Development Hell: suitably OTT, often fun and always loud. The villainy is underpowered, the plot a mess, but Cooper and Copley impress." The Christian Science Monitor says, "What matters in the end, what always matters in these Type A flicks, is how many explosions there are, and how loud. By this reckoning, and only this, “The A-Team” rates an A." Roger Ebert calls it "an incomprehensible mess with the 1980s TV show embedded inside." Rotten Tomatoes gives it a rotten 47%.
