A Note...

... to our loyal readers.

Guy is in Sweden, currently, and Girl is in Canada. No, we did not split up, as one of you has commented, but we do come from different sides of the world and this tends to happen when you are stupid enough to get involved in a long distance relationship.

So! To those of you who are expecting this website to be kept up to date on a regular basis (even after the fact that this has never happened so far), you will be disappointed.

But! We will try to watch the same movies, and we will try to write reviews about them at some point, then try to post those reviews on a semi-timely basis... maybe.

Some of you may call this a stilted promise, but we just call it reality. Unlike Lindsay Lohan, we have our feet planted firmly in it.

THE A-TEAM


Guy’s Review...


So we went to the theaters to get a much needed action injection. I watched The A-Team as a kid. It was part of a great line up of shows when I was a kid. It was MacGuyver, Airwolf, Knightrider and The A-Team. I loved all of those shows and couldn’t wait for the next episode. So the wait for this film was kinda long. I have to say that with age my love for this show had cooled a little bit.


I heard from people that saw this movie before me that it was way too much and over the top. I agree that it was ridiculous and the action was way, way over the top. I liked that, many of the action films I saw as a kid where made this way and I didn’t complain then and I’m not gonna start now. This was over the top in a good way. For the chemistry of the cast I liked that as well. Everyone was very funny even the sometimes dry Liam Neeson.


Highlight of the movie for me was probably the attempt to fly a tank hanging from on weak little parachute. I know this sounds like a ridiculous but the makers of this movie knew that as well and pointed it out in the dialogue.


I heard that Mr. T came out in the press against this movie cause people got killed and there where some sexual content in this film. The movie is still PG-13 and the violence is not gross or gory in any way. And I can’t remember any sexiness going on at any point in the film, just some kissing.


Guy’s Rating: If you love action than you’ll definitely get your fix here.


Girl’s OL: If you’ve seen the trailer and not had an itch to watch this movie, you’re probably either a dick or a loser.
