Is the Losers A Winner?

Based off of the graphic novel of the same name, we follow a team of "dead" Special Forces Operatives who are expertly trained and highly skilled. The team runs like a dysfunctional family for the most part. A five man team with each member specializing in a different area of expertise, but can take over in another area in a pinch. Every mission The Losers take on is expertly planned and executed to the T. When you want a job done you go to one group. But if you want the job done right then you go to The Loser.

The Losers get their start in Bolivia where they are double crossed by a man named Max who orders the team dead via missile to air lift. But what max didn't calculate was the fact that the team wasn't on the air lift, the missile killedthe pilots some soldiers and twenty five innocent kids. Realizing that the missile drive by was meant for them, the team throws their dog tags into the burning wreckage and are proclaimed dead.

Living the lives of random citizens in Bolivia The Losers are discovered by Aisha and brought back to the states. With the promise of getting even with Max and clearing their names, The Losers get to work.

For a comic to film adaptation this movie is okay, it transitions well. This is what I like to call an Action/Comedy because it has the stuff of an action film but it lacks the seriousness. An example of what I mean comes when Jensen (Chris Evans, dude is just popping up all over the place) is confronted by three armed guards. He pulls out finger guns. "I am a killing machine, a top secret government project with Telekinesis." Guard goes to cuff him and POP. Then you have the groups leader Clay (Jeffery Dean Morgan) he is this serious guy on the field but when on leave. He turns into his son Dean Winchester a drinking womanizer. (Seriously did you not see the Supernatural Reference coming.)

I give this movie a 7 out of 10.
