I apologise wholeheartedly for the following review.
Not just for the bad word I am about to use...
I CUNTING love this film.
It's The Fucking A-Team! What did everyone expect?! A five star film? With a perfect screenplay? Truly evil bad guys? A plot that makes sense? Amazing acting?...
I wanted to see a flying tank blow up a plane. And I got it. Cooper and Copely are excellent and it's a few better framed action set pieces away from being an action great in my book.
I love it when a plan comes together.
Save for the unnecessary romantic subplot, constant "remember the TV show? wink wink" moments, and most of the breaking out montage in the middle of the second act, I still maintain that The A-Team is a terrific and fun action film, and one that was largely underrated in its original run in theatres.
Of all the television series that have been adapted for the big screen, few have worked quite as well as Joe Carnahan's reinterpretation of dodgy eighties series The A-Team. The tv show was really for kids despite all the gunplay and action, and probably made more money from lunch boxes and merchandise than the stars did. It was cheesy and cliche-ridden, but the kids loved it. This film however does take it up a notch but manages to keep some of the charm of the series. Although not a huge box office hit, it had the perfect mix of action and comedy, and a cast that embraced the sometimes outrageously implausible plotting to give us a film that was so…
“AHHHHHHHH— You pancaked my van! I’m gonna kill you, fool!”
Joe Carnahan’s directing style is broad, in The A-Team it almost feels as though you’re watching a Michael Bay film. It’s action packed with nicely timed comedic beats and a stacked cast that embodies colorful characters who possess awesome personalities.
The A-Team deserves to be seen in all its glory with The Extended Edition. This film is probably the first Carnahan film I ever saw & I fell in love with it the moment it ended. I’m also a huge fan of The Grey (2011) from Carnahan; there’s a lot more of his filmography that I need to take a look at but one of the biggest mistakes in the history…
"The Central Intelligence Agency believes in and evinces a profound moral ethic, as well as an unshakeable moral standard."
the hidden sickness/genius of Bay's TRANSFORMERS films is that the good guys might as well also be the bad guys. you need them, you need their terrible methods, you just don't appreciate it yet. their self-important collateral damage is in service of a supposedly democratic, patriotic good. but these guys are true badasses, right? they get down for recreation. fuck yeah. the corporate Halliburton black-polo-shirt-and-Kevlar trigger dudes are posers. they don't believe it. they're in it to get paid. this is more poisonous than any movie about robots punching each other could ever be.
I wanted to love this! Unfortunately, it felt forced like children who hang together because the parents are the real friends.
In the lead up to the Oscar Red Carpet, as is normally the case, the movie channels were showing utter crap. That was until Film Four stepped in to save the day with The A-Team, a film so entertaining it almost makes us forget how lame the television series was. Remember this was the show that despite the brilliance of Dwight Schultz had cameos from the likes of Boy George and Hulk Hogan that alongside the cartoonish violence was lapped up by a pre-teen audience. It may have a nostalgia factor for some, but the film kicks its ass B.A. style.
The first task faced by director Joe Carnahan was finding a star to replace a Hollywood legend that led…
There have been far too many good action films that have failed at the box office this decade or failed to garner the releases they deserve.
This leads me to the conclusion that people have completely forgotten how to have fun. Unless the characters are wearing capes. Now I recognise that's a blanket generalisation and I have railed against these vociferously and regularly on this website over the last 5 years. But I'm afraid I can see no other conclusion after really enjoying The A-Team and being shocked that it flopped at the box office.
Now of course, the Fast & Furious, James Bond and Mission: Impossible franchises are slam-dunks. They will always make money. But aside from franchises that are…
I don’t want to submit myself to violence but I feel like kneeing myself in the face after scrolling past this movie and never watching it for years.
It was BLOODY GOOD!!! Kept me on my toes, it was funny it had hot Bradley Cooper what more do you want?

Zum Abschluss habe ich mir noch einen Film gegönnt, der so over the top ist, dass ich einfach nur immer wieder extrem viel Spaß damit haben kann. Hier wurde nicht viel nachgedacht, sondern einfach nur draufgehauen.. egal ob mit 16546 Explosionen, Gekloppe oder irgendwelchen blöden Sprüchen, die eigentlich schon wieder viel zu gut sind. Und natürlich der Klassiker, wenn Liam Neeson seine Kubanische qualmt und mit einem fetten Grinsen die bekannten Zeilen "Ich liebe es, wenn ein Plan funktioniert" von sich gibt.
Apropos Liam Neeson. Nicht erst seit gestern hat man ja das Gefühl, dass dieser mittlerweile so einige Guilty Pleasure Schätze in seiner Filmografie hat. Da wir jetzt schon solche Legenden wie Nic Cage, Stallone, Michael Bay…
