I think the creators of the A-Team movie did a great job recreating the characters. It’s one of the better TV shows turned to movies. The movie is funny, has ridiculous action, and a relatively good plot. The movie is not an Oscar contender, but like the TV show it wasn’t made for critics. If you were a big fan of the show I think you will appreciate the movie. If you are looking for a good popcorn flick to escape the summer heat I think you’d like the A-Team. If you are looking for an Oscar worthy movie…stay at home.
The A-Team is rated PG-13 for intense action/violence, and a bunch of minor swears. I give it one thumb up.
Two Thumbs up = I loved it, worth paying full price, and I will own it on DVD.
One Thumb up = An OK movie, worth a matinee showing, and I may buy it on DVD if I see it in the $5 bin.
Thumb to the side = Wait and rent it. I wouldn’t be mad if someone gave me this DVD, but I wouldn’t buy it.
Thumbs down = I hated it, wish I wouldn’t have wasted money on it, wouldn’t own it on DVD
I remember the hype of the T.V. show when it first came on the scene. One thing I always found odd was that nobody ever died on the T.V. show. Helicopters would fly into mountains and explode, and then all the bad guys would step out of the rubble coughing and dusting themselves off.
nice. i used to watch it al the time…and i actually perused the graphic novel of the movie to see i it was going to be any good…
I always love your reviews. Better than those lousy movie critics. I never really watched the a team. Are you gonna do a review on the new twilight movie??? 🙂
Austin Lee, I don't know if I'll go see that one. If Monica doesn't make it with her friends I'll take her, but if she does I may just let her review it.
