Howard Tayler writes as an aside in a mini-review of new spy thriller Salt,
...OK, Howard. Thanks for the heads-up. That one sentence about flying tanks into lakes just completely eliminated any possible remaining shreds of temptation I might still have had lingering around to ever even CONSIDER watching the new A-Team movie. Because when you get to that kind of complete bullshit, it's no longer even a Laughably Improbable Stupid Action Movie, it's crossed the line into a Warner Brothers cartoon with real humans ... except without the funny.

I was amused to learn that someone went through the entire first season of A-Team and counted up every shot fired. They went through an eighth of a million rounds of machine-gun ammunition, and never once hit one single damned thing. These people were supposed to be former members of an elite military unit? The only earthly reason I can imagine them ever managing to complete a mission is that their opponents were all rolling on the ground helpless with laughter at what incompetent boobs they were.

As the original show is on Hulu, if you're going to comment about it, you really ought to watch it so that your comments (about the original) can be taken seriously.
