Saw "The A Team" yesterday.

Having grown up in the era of the orignial T.V. show, I wasn't expecting much. If you've ever watched the original show, you know that nobody ever died, and the story lines were corny. As a kid I loved the show, but I cringe when I see the re-runs now. Being a UFC/MMA fan, I think "Rampage" is funny in that context, but I wondered how his acting would show up on the big screen. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised. The story was a bit choppy, but the action was non-stop. There was plenty of humor, and I think that's what I liked about it the most. It wasn't over the top humor. It was well timed and relevant. I don't laugh out loud during movies often, but I did during this one. Rampage seemed to fit into the role, which I didn't expect. However, "Murdock" stole the show. "Face Man" was good as well. The only person I had trouble with was Liam Neeson. It wasn't his acting. He just didn't seem old enough to be Hannible, but that's just me bringing my teenage baggage to the movie.

This isn't a must see when compared to what's out there at the moment, but it is a rent it for sure.
