I saw this and Karate Kid today...Wow good job for a change greedy Hollywood studios...I love Liam Neeson's Hannibal. Face and Murdock were great...Q was adequate but anybody who follows Mr. T will be a failure no matter what.

I actually liked Jackson better than Mr. T ... but I think I put that in the category of dropping the campy stuff from the show. Mr. T is a cartoon character. Rampage kept the good stuff -- big badass, bone-crusher of a guy -- and dropped some of the over-the-top pro-wresting stuff (like the 90 lbs. of jewelry, for instance).
Also ... its a bit like Chris Pine's Captain Kirk. Mr. T and Shatner are both so distinctive personally that you have to strike a fine balance between playing the character and doing an impression. Rampage seemed to capture T's personality pretty well, without doing an impression (by saying "I pity the fool" all the time). The tatoos on his knuckles were a good homage to Mr. T.

My only nit with the film was BA's non-violent dilemma, they almost tried to make the film have heart.
Yeah, they really could've done without that part. And the surprise villain in the conspiracy could've been dropped too. It needlessly complicated the plot.

I saw last night and thought it was awesome. I would like to watch it again in theaters.

Copley's American accent was a bit shakey throughout the film, but I liked that they had him speak Swahili (I think that's what it was) at one point.

Lol...me too. In fact, the first time we saw him on screen I looked at my GF and said it.

There were a few points where his native South African accent came out, but I believe that was intentional as it was an act. Otherwise, I really didn't notice any slipping up with the accent. But then again, I wasn't listening for that.

that's because it's a genuinely entertaining movie, and which happens to be the opinion of people who have actually watched it.

I just came back from seeing this. I was really surprised at how much I enjoyed the movie. All four characters were great, the action was fantastic and the story wasn't weak like I thought it was going to be.
The plans inter-cut with the actual mission was smart and exciting and I loved the way the characters interacted with each other, especially Murdock and B.A. I'm really harsh on the lack of reality in films but I have to admit that tank scene was awesome.
I'd definitely be up for a sequel where the A-Team help ordinary people in L.A. as soldiers for fortune.

Perhaps. But for 10 bucks...i'll believe them.
Unless I HAVE to see a movie, i'm waiting on the reviews. Although sometimes that doesnt work...Wolfman sucked so hard.
