Insomniac Film Festival #117: The A-Team

![image](https://img.esteem.ws/0ezhnd1aj7.jpg)

**The A-Team** is Hannibal Smith, played by Liam Neeson, Face, played by Bradley Cooper, B.A. Baracus (Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson), and Howling Mad Murdoch (Sharlto Copley). I remember watching the television show in the 1980s and liking it. I don’t know if it stands up today. This is the 2010 movie adaptation.

The story is kind of an origin story where the team are Airborne Rangers sent on a mission to recover stolen money plates. They are framed for a crime, jailed. They escape to clear their names, recover the plates and get the bad guys. Hijinks ensue, Jessica Biel is also around.

# The Good...
 ![image](https://img.esteem.ws/khe4g6aih6.jpg)

The performances are great! The actors are having a lot of fun.

The action is silly and a lot of fun.

# The Not So Good...

The story really doesn’t hold together very well. It is just a bunch of action set pieces held together by a flimsy plot.

Some of the silly action is just too silly, *I’m looking at you tank in the sky.*

The B.A. Baracus as pacifist storyline was pointless.

A lot of misogyny in this flick.

# It’s fun but pointless and you do forget most of it pretty quickly.

I enjoyed it for what it was. It was clunky because they had to introduce all the characters and the main heist plot was weak, but I would like to see a sequel or two.
