Last night David and I got together with our friends Darion, Devin, Jordan, Josh R. and Josh Z. to see The A-Team at the ArcLight Theater in Hollywood, CA — and we had a total blast! After some worry, I am very happy to say that I loved every single second of the new A-Team remake movie:
As you might expect, the film is chock full of over-the-top ridiculousness but it is wholly and entirely fun … I couldn’t get enough. The casting is perfect and the acting is, well, not important. If you are looking for a superfun action film, The A-Team is the movie for you. The crazy action gets underway immediately and it rarely lets up enough for you to catch your breath. The special effects are pretty good and Jessica Biel doesn’t ruin the movie nearly enough to make it unentertaining ;) The only thing I was surprised by was how little the iconic A-Team van is featured in the flick. To be honest, the drawbacks are so inconsequential that they aren’t even worth mentioning. I loved this movie so much … I can’t wait to see it again and again.
I had so much fun with my friends last night that I’ve decided to start my own special forces unit … called The gAy Team:
Clearly, Darion is (gives good) Face, I am Mr. T(rent), Josh Z. is Token (cuz he’s the lone straight dude in The gAy Team) and the other guys are various other witty names that I can’t really come up with right now. After the movie, we all went out for drinks and revelry afterward … it was a really fun night.
Tonight I’m planning to hang out with Josh R. and his friend Essly for some Sex and the City 2 fun … I hear we may run into Joan Rivers … or something. Stay tuned, I may have fun stories to share tomorrow.
Go see The A-Team, I promise … it’s a good time … and Bradley Cooper is shirtless on more than one occasion :D
I absolutely agree w/ you about this movie! It’s SO MUCH FUN! I was expecting so much cheese, and I was pleasantly surprised. The casting was great, but I have to give MAJOR props to Sharlto Copely…he was the PERFECT Murdoch! Love love loved this movie!
I went to see it last night, and loved it! The movie is a of fun.
Yes, I loved Sharlto Copely as Murdoch. Murdoch was my favorite character on the show and I loved how well he translated on the big screen.
Make sure to stick around after the credits. Fun stuff awaits. :)
Can’t wait to see this!
Just saw the movie, it was super fun. Totally agree with you Trent!
My husband and son went to see this movie and they loved it.I went back, for a second time to see the Karrate Kid. I saw it on Friday and decided I had to see it again on Saturday. It was really good. There is a lesson to be learned by every American child, from this movie.
I am not a big A-Team fan, I prefer to remember it the way it was on TV .
I LOVED the TV version & laughed when some moral majority group blasted it on TV & print for the number of “violent” acts portrayed per episode… Only to be responded to by fans (& non-fans) wondering how none of the bad guys stopped by the A-Team ever bled, much less died, considering the fact that every vehicle crash had them walking away! LOL!

Anyway, the trailers look great, exaggerated mayhem… But not enough to have me pay for a night at the theater. I’ll wait to rent it. Hell, for Christmas I tend to get gift cards to Future Shop – That’s how I ended up with 3 great DVD’s I didn’t have to pay for.
@natalie i completly agree! i loved him! “you spin my head right round right round” haha
