Aucune équipe ne ressemble à celle de L’Agence Tous Risques. Quatre hommes, hyper qualifiés et autrefois membres respectés d’une unité d’élite de l’armée, sont chargés d’une mission classée top-secret destinée à les piéger, et qui les conduit en prison pour un crime qu’ils n’ont pas commis. Mais la somme de leurs talents leur permet une évasion sans accroc. Devenus des rebelles, ils décident de blanchir leurs noms et de retrouver les vrais coupables. (20th Century Fox FR)

Trois étoiles pour l’histoire et pour quelques séquences d’action et une de plus pour le reste de l’action, l’humour, le fait que Liam Neeson me paraisse rudement sympathique et pour les rôles encore une fois réussis de Bradley Cooper et Patrick Wilson. La série, elle, me laisse de marbre.

The ultimate rattle that catches the momentum and doesn't let go until the end. Carnahan, under the production whip of the Scott brothers, throws in one "over the top" scene after another, but in the action inferno, he still manages to shoot deadly catchphrases at you with incredible cadence. The central quartet plays the most searing instrumental in years, and the result is a pure 1980s flick that the twenty-first-century coat fits like a glove. Sure, it's blatant none-sense, but I was still vibrating from it the next day. I'll forgive the digital silliness at the end and I’m giving it full stars. I don't think the film will get less stars from me upon a second viewing. Edit: Indeed, it did not. Even for the second (third, fourth,...) time, this is one of the most entertaining action movies in recent years.

I sniff nostalgically. I grew up on it and Carnahan et comp. were able to modernize it very solidly without creating digital none-sense for young people. On the contrary, it may in fact be too nostalgic and laughs at the current mass conceptualization of blockbusters. I had a great time, if it wasn't for a few "over the line" attempts at making it more serious, it would be an almost perfect relaxing snort of amusement. Hats off to the wonderful chemistry in the central quartet and also to Carnahan, who managed to direct the action scenes with the sophistication of a gambler. Definitely the best blockbuster of the cucumber season; I'm just sorry that it won't continue...

An awful B-movie. Awful garbage. And awfully entertaining. Not on the action side, though; there’s very little of that and what there is terribly confused due to deranged editing, but after the ungainly introduction as soon as it establishes itself as a buddy comedy full of over the top scenes in “best 3D effect ever" style, then... Then you can either angrily get up from your seat and go home muttering about dumb Hollywood, or you can remain seated and abandon yourself to harmless, mindless fun. And at least it’s meant to be fun; I must admit that I expected something more like “it’s so bad, it’s genius".

To my great surprise, this is a good and hugely entertaining action ride. The trailers where underwhelming, but these four cool guys ended up winning me over. The action scenes are so over the top that it’s impossible not to smile. The climax on the other hand, maybe is a bit too over the top, there were moments when I didn’t know what was going on and why, so the impression went a bit down, but I still think it’s an 80% film.
