At first glance, The Losers looks like your run-of-the-mill actioner, with an ensemble of Hey, I Know that Guys who you secretly wish were given the opportunity to do more with their lives (Idris Elba is the black George Clooney, for chrissakes), directed by a hack whose biggest credit to their name is Stomp the Yard. Based on DC/Vertigo comic, it's about a group of special forces commandos (led by Jeffrey Dean Morgan) left for dead by their no good handler (played by Jason Patric). But then you get to that part about two minutes into the trailer where Chris Evans pretends to shoot Anonymous Evil Dudes with his fingers and they actually fall down dead, I stopped shaking my head and thinking, "This guy is too charming to have his best film be Not Another Teen Movie."
'Cause that was badass, son.
Plus, I find Jason Patric sadly hilarious and I'm pretty much always down to watch anything involving a guy who was out-acted by Keanu Reeves.
Verdict: I've already bought my ticket.
