Okay people, we have another contender in this series of films. You know tough guy teams type of movie. The Losers can definitely be a contender against The A-Team. Both have the regular story about a team of specialists who get screwed over by the people they are working for. Yes I know its a cliché but come on. Any one who goes to see a movie like this will know what to expect.Guns Blazing and explosions with a hot babe, is there anything more you want.
Alright now story wise like I have just explained earlier that its a cliché. Nothing new in that area. But decent acting and pretty good writing is probably what brings this movie together. The leader of this team is 'Clay'(Jeferrey Dean Morgan) he holds this team together and will do whatever it takes to take care of his men. 'Roque'(Idris Elba) is probably the teams second in command. He loves knives as you will see in the movie and has a bit of a weird side to him. Then comes 'Pooch'(Columbus Short), he is the teams driver. He also has a kid on the way and has doubts on whether or not to carry on this revenge mission. 'Jake'(Chris Evans) is the teams coms expert and a womanizer. And finally there's 'Cougar'(Oscar Jaenada) the teams sniper and recon scout.
Along the way they encounter the hottie of the movie 'Aisha'(Zoe Saldana). Who turns is more than what she say she is. Then of course the main villain 'Max'Jason Patric) is the one who wanted the team dead.
Okay so overall the movie is your average summer action movie. This movie has a few surprising twists here and there and that is what makes me believe that this movie is slightly better than The A-Team. Because no matter how much fun The A-Team was, it was still too unrealistic.
Although one complaint I have about this movie was that actor Oscar Jaenada was pretty underused. I think he only had half a page worth of line for the whole movie. Although the funny bit in the movie really helped me forget about that.
So I give The Losers an 8/10 as this film hits a bit more spots as a summer action film
