The Losers

I think people are being too hard on this movie. It's a big shiny explosions movie, with nothing especially new plot wise, to be sure, but who goes to action movies for plot? Not me! Clever repartee, good looking men (Saldana is hot, yes, but I'm female so ... Evans and Morgan, I'm lookin' at you), a villain landing somewhere between James Bond and Austin Powers, helicopter stunts, big guns, and big explosions. Good times.

Some great locations, good editing (also nice marriage of comic book style to live action style in the credits),decent soundtrack.

The Losers doesn't take itself too seriously, and neither should you.

Hadn't heard of it and knew even less about it when I saw The Losers and I just had a blast! It was a movie for guys who like movies with its mean action and a constant humorous undertone that stays in stride with the tempo of the film. It was hot chix, cool tricks, and explosives throughout.

I didn't dig the slow-mo too much, though. That John Woo stuff just rubs me the wrong way and I find it so pretentiously distracting! ugh.

But beyond that... if you want an entertaining "don't need to think about it flick", The Losers generously provides. If you're looking for something to stick with you to puzzle upon or stimulate you intellectually, search elsewhere.

Will someone please put Jeffrey Dean Morgan in more intelligent dark humor action leads? He is just amazing as a charming rogue leader of the marry band, and Chris Evans is an unexpected comic relief with nuanced performance and expansive range of acting.

Interesting take on comic book based action flick. It never looses a momentum or pace, it's through and through fun, but if you pay a bit of attention, you will see darker undercurrents and rather deep connotations. Well directed, well paced and entertaining all the way through.

There is no pretense here, but that's why the depth of characters and the story comes through in those shining moments. This would be action flick for cool guys and thinking girls.

I always check IMDb before i watch a movie. Some of the reviews on this site almost caused me to not watch this movie. I am glad i overlooked the negative commentary. Many people have said that they copy old action movies..... aren't they all copies with different characters.

Anyhow the movie is about a group of U.S. soldiers who are being pursued by some guy named Max in the CIA. Well, i was very confused... Who is this max? Why does he want them dead? This is never explained or i missed it.

Anyhow the team are framed for the murder of 25 children and are fugitives from the U.S. they are given an opportunity by this girl who seems devious right from the beginning.

But to put it short, its worth watching. The characters are original and the guy with the glasses needs to be in more movies. He basically made the movie for me and was comical the whole way threw. His lines seemed a lot less cheesy.

Overall, a good action/comedy. Id give it..... 7 out of 10. It lacks a little bit of excitement.

Well don't know how i didn't knew about this movie that come out 10y ago, and i found out about it today.

Good action movie, fun and entertaining , and what else do you need from it. It had also very good music in background, some nice hard songs,

Also very nice bunch of actors, i mean Saldana should be enough but thrs Elba too, so all in all it was good discovery for me to find this today when we lack a good movies in 2020 n 21
