When the dust settles the winner of best 2010 action team-up film is…
Hollywood loves to shell out similar films in a given year, (Dante’s Peak and Volcano, Deep Impact and Armageddon) and 2010 is no exception. This year the old school action team-up made a comeback with movies like, The Losers, The A-Team, and The Expendables with varying results. So, I thought it would be in fitting with the spirit of those films to pit them against one another, and see which one comes out on top. Here are the 2010 action team-up awards. Steroids are encouraged.

A+ Action: A Review of “The A-Team”
My first impression of “The A-Team”, before it was even released, was that this was a movie made for chicks…that happened to include explosions. I mean, come on- Liam Neeson? Silver fox. Bradley Cooper? Body of a God. Patrick Wilson? Sexy bad guy. Even Sharlto Copley has a rugged handsomeness about him.

“Valentine’s Day” is, Actually, Okay
Valentine’s Day is not Love, Actually. The structure is the same- the intertwining story concept- but it doesn’t suck. That’s right. I thought Love, Actually sucked. Many people, especially men, disagree with me. But when everyone in England (or at least the ones who were in the movie) got off the same plane in the end of the film, I rolled my eyes and groaned. Granted, Valentine’s Day isn’t the next Gone with the Wind. But I felt that it made good use of the intertwining story concept, and included a couple of situations that were new to the typical date movie genre. Read the rest of this entry »
