If a series from the 80's is going to be made into a movie, then this is how to do it.
I know that Dave was not as excited to see it as I was, but I drug him to it anyway. I actually don't know who laughed harder, me or him!
Somehow they managed to have "Face", played by Bradley Cooper, without his shirt for about 75% of the movie, that works...even if he is a bit thin for my taste!
The movie is not only funny but keeps you on your toes with action. Trying to recover $100 bill mint plates, this foursome plays a game of shoot'em'up with whoever gets in their way. Wrongly accused for a crime, they get sent to prison from which they have to escape to try and clear their names. It is ripe for a sequel.
Along with Cooper is Liam Neeson as Hannibal, UFC Fighter Quinton Jackson as the new BA Baracus, although he goes by Bosco in this version; and finally Sharlto Copley as Murdock, the crazy pilot. I've not seen Copley in anything else but I would probably watch any comedy he was in.
It's a Diva's thumbs up on this one!
