he A-Team
(M) Roadshow Entertainment
Forget the word "re-make", The A-Team stands alone as a great action movie.
And given the quality of the cast and the spectacular special effects, this is better than the series from the early-80s.
From 1983-86, The A-Team graced television screens across the world and Mr T became
a household name as B A Baracus.
The A-Team (Colonel John "Hannibal" Smith, Lieutenant Templeton "Faceman" Peck, Captain H M Murdock and Sergeant B A Baracus) were mercenaries on the run - with attitude - and they captured extensive popular support from viewers.
But the 2010 crew are an even better unit and this movie is good.
Hannibal (Liam Neeson), Faceman (Bradley Cooper), Murdock (Sharlto Copley) and BA (Quinton Jackson) gel as a team and there is plenty of humour injected throughout.
This A-Team is a group of Iraqi war special operatives who are framed for a crime they did not commit.
They have always been about getting things done for the good of their country.
Imprisoned, the boys break out with the help of an unlikely ally who wants them to retrieve stolen plates that could be used to flood the US with counterfeit currency.
Adding a touch of grace and glamour to their mission is federal agent Charisa Sosa (Jessica Biel) who doesn't seem too sure if she is trying to stop the team or assist them in achieving their aims.
