The A-Team

The ironic thing about this remake is that those of us who actually remember the TV series are no longer the target market. And for those younger moviegoers who are, will they care enough about BA Baracus, Hannibal, Face and Murdoch to even go see the film?

Anyways… For those who still hold fond memories of the series, and for those who will be making new friends with the A-Team, don’t expect to be blown away. It’s silliness from start to finish. The story, the stunts and the shenanigans are just as ridiculous as they ever were, but in the 80s we didn’t know any better.

The guys are on a mission to find the people responsible for framing them, and get into all sorts of unlikely and far-fetched situations. What’s cool, and what will make the film worth watching, is the inclusion of SA’s Sharlto Copley (Wickus from District 9). Although his American accent sucks, I’m proud to see his mug on a big Hollywood blockbuster. If you’re up for a frivolous evening, this will suit.

Rating: 3 outta 5.
