The A - Team


I didn’t watch the television series but I knew of and liked Mr. T.
I loved this movie and found myself laughing and smiling throughout the entire flick.
The story is about a group veterans looking to clear their name with the U.S. military, who suspect the A-Team of committing a crime for which they were framed.
The movie is well cast. Liam Neeson as the teram leader Hannibal adds solidness. If anyone else was cast it would have been more of a spoof but Liam plays it for real. Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson as Mr. T is very funny and makes you forget about the real Mr. T half way thru the movie. and there are new actors playing bad guys in Hollywood, Patrick Wilson and Brian Bloom. Even Gerald McRainey (remember the TV show Simon and Simon?) shows up in a key role.
Jessica Biel is fantastic looking as always and has a decent role.
This is the best action movie I have seen this year and it moves at a frantic pace.
This movie is not for everyone but if you are looking for a summer popcorn action flick then this is it.

Verdict: The A-Team is re-born. I am going to see this again.
