A-Team, The (2010)
The A-Team represents the motion picture industryxx-xxs male-oriented answer to such franchises as Sex and the City and Twilight. To combat the new wave of estrogen-powered movies, Fox has fallen back on a tried-but-true formula: the adrenaline-and-testosterone cocktail. The vehicle for this volatile mix is a revived xx-xx80s TV show that has been resurrected with its blend of tongue-and-cheek humor and over-the-top action intact. Ixx-xxm not sure many were clamoring for a new iteration of The A-Team, but the premise is a solid match for two hours of dumb plot and dumber action. The production offers a level of non-intellectual entertainment, although the true action junkie may find the buzz dulled somewhat by director Joe Carnahanxx-xxs embrace of modern action techniques, with fast cuts and a constantly moving camera often making it tough to figure out what the hellxx-xxs going on in the midst of a pitched battle.
