THE LOSERS REVIEW: More True to the Name than the Comic
Unfortunately, The Losers, which was adapted from the Vertigo comic by the same name, definitely lost something in translation from the incredible source material it was based on. Despite an amazing cast of Uhura, The Comedian, Human Torch and a Lost Boy, an espionage movie based on a comic wasn’t enough to bring out genre supporters and it suffered a crushing defeat at the box office. Probably based on ads that make the movie out to be the A-Team that you’ve never heard of. Which, is actually an honest depiction of the film, which lets fans of the comic down, as well as audiences expecting anything more than a typical action flick. Having said that, we’ll be damned if Chris Evans isn’t CRAZY amusing, as usual!
The good news is, we’ve got an AWESOME behind-the-scenes Ironman 2 Preview coming your way this weekend!

long time viewer, first time commenter.
awesome review as per usual, but I am under the impression that Captain America comes out July 22, 2011.
at least that is what Marvel has posted up.
can’t wait to hear what you’ve got to say about Iron Man 2!

I must say, I didn’t think this was THAT bad, however I hadn’t read about ‘The Losers’ before hand. Now that I have I understand where you two were coming from. Taken as just a movie, I thought it was okay. Definitely could have been better and without the oddity of it all.
