What to Know

Critics Consensus

The A-Team assembles a top-rate cast only to ditch the show's appealingly silly premise for explosive yet muddled blockbuster filmmaking.

Candice Frederick Reel Talk Online The A-Team certainly explodes onto the big screen in a major way. Rated: B+ Sep 11, 2017 Full Review Nell Minow Movie Mom Rated: B+ Feb 14, 2012 Full Review Nick Curtis London Evening Standard Joe Carnahan's movie is loud and vulgar and disorienting, but also an exhilarating kind of fun. Rated: 3/5 Aug 3, 2010 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review The quick flash that is this movie’s brand of napalm-paced, gun-powdered spectacle, has one agreeing with Hannibal’s assessment that “Overkill is underrated.” Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 18, 2023 Full Review Bill Newcott AARP Movies for Grownups After casting did its job, the project seems to have been turned over to a classroom of fifth-grade boys—although I’d like to think the kids would do a better job of...trying to close up...plot holes....gaping enough to drive a flaming tank through. Rated: 2/5 Apr 1, 2023 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies Some good acting and wild action is overshadowed by pitiful editing, shoddy camera work, and a mediocre story.

tim s I was thoroughly surprised by The A-Team. The action gets cartoonish in the middle, but overall this is an entertaining film. In particular, Sharlto Copley's off-kilter performance as a somewhat mental pilot is a standout. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/05/25 Full Review Patrick H Stupid? Yes. Fun as hell? Absolutely YES!! You're supposed to have fun watching a movie, If it accomplishes that then nothing else matters. This movie was fun as hell-- Mission Accomplished! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/18/25 Full Review Ralph R The A-Team (2010) felt like a chaotic attempt to modernize the classic show, but it never really stuck the landing. The directing leans hard into the over-the-top action vibe, but instead of giving us slick sequences, it delivers a messy blur of noise and explosions. The pacing is all over the place, and it’s clear they were trying to make it cool and energetic, but it just ends up feeling loud and confusing. There’s no real rhythm to the way scenes unfold, and some of the more intense moments lose their impact because they’re drowned in shaky visuals. Speaking of visuals, the cinematography was frustrating at best. Way too much shaky cam, weird half-face angles, and quick cuts that make it hard to enjoy any of the action. It felt like the camera was constantly moving just for the sake of movement, not to actually enhance the scene. That kind of editing usually screams, “we didn’t have great footage to work with,” and unfortunately, it shows. I found myself trying to follow what was happening rather than getting pulled into the story. It’s one of those movies that mistakes chaos for excitement. The cast is actually solid, with Liam Neeson bringing his usual presence and Bradley Cooper doing his thing, but the script gives them very little to work with. The dialogue feels forced, and the characters never really breathe or evolve. It’s like the movie assumed the audience already loved these guys, so it skipped over giving them depth. The score tries to hype things up, and while I did get a flash of Indiana Jones vibes early on, I realized it was just a modern remix of the original A-Team theme. Nostalgic, sure, but it didn’t save the mess. Overall, it's got energy, but not much substance. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/25 Full Review Faiz D A solid entertainer. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/29/24 Full Review Max T Villain is great, action is great, comedy is great Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/23/24 Full Review Dom P This movie was fun, just shut your brains off and enjoy it !!!
