Well among the stupid remake / adaptations ideas, when announced, I thought the A-Team was right there with the likes of GI Joes. Then again, when handled properly, you can always get good stuff from trash.
And this adaptation comes as a good surprise. No greatness, but quite fun still.
On the down side, it slightly too over the top for its own good and the action is quite over edited.
But the film manages to saves itself with its characters, very well cast (all 4 main cahracters) and I thought very likeable. Whenever I was about to get fed up with a set piece that I was finding "too much", I got something (eg Murdoch asking the way to Berlin) that made me think "oh why not after all...".
So "just" a disposable blockbuster, nowhere near a Star Trek, missing the madness of a Transformers, but still way better than a Pirates Of The Carribeans in my book.
All in all, fun.
