A big screen adaptation of the classic 1980s action TV series The A-Team was released on June 11, 2010 by 20th Century Fox. The story follows the exploits of a group of Iraq War veterans who have been framed for a crime. Together, they work as mercenaries while on the run from the military.
The film is directed by Joe Carnahan, who previously made the movies Narc and Smokin Aces. It stars Liam Neeson, Bradley Cooper and Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson.
First Trailer
The trailer features the same voice-over monologue as the original TV series. We open with footage of the group escaping while being transferred to a maximum-security prison facility. The music kicks in as we see "Rampage" Jackson from behind, with the recognizable Mohawk of BA Baracus. The featured action sequences include a car chase through the desert, an incursion into a downtown office building and a dogfight scene at 35,000 feet.
