The A-Team (2010, USA)

Provided that loud noises don’t bother you, The A-Team is pretty much the perfect movie to watch the day after macerating your brain with alcohol. It’s less clever than it thinks it is by half, but it still has its charms – absurdly over-the-top action setpieces among them, and a cast that’s game for pretty much anything. Hell, even Rampage Jackson grew on me, though I was disappointed by how little they gave Sharlto Copley to do as Murdoch. But the real scene-stealer is Patrick Wilson, who unveils an unexpected comedic streak in his caricature of swaggering company man “Lynch”, the CIA agent who knows more than he’s telling. In fact, the best scene in the movie might be the car sequence between Wilson and baddie Brian Bloom, even though nothing gets blowed up good at all. These two know exactly what kind of movie they’re in, and they don’t need to grin as maniacally as Bradley Cooper to let us know they’re in on the joke.
