The Losers

A ragtag team of mercenaries—sort of like the A-Team, but without most of the charm—gets framed by an evil terrorist named Max (an all-over-the-place Jason Patric). They survive a mission in which they were supposed to be killed, and the team sets out to find Max and make him swallow his teeth. The team members are played by a virtual who’s-who of comic-book and sci-fi geekdom. Jeffrey Dean Morgan (The Comedian from Watchmen) plays Clay, the group leader. Chris Evans (Fantastic Four’s Human Torch and soon to be Captain America) plays the group’s tech guy and resident wisecracker. Also onboard is Zoe Saldana as a mysterious woman who helps the team in their mission to find Max. The Losers is basically one incoherent gunfight after another. The mission is hard to follow, as if director Sylvain White had trouble keeping the story straight; perhaps he thought having good-looking people firing big guns was enough.
