True, this will be a movie and thus will be big, loud, and shiny, but you've gotta capture what it is that made the A-Team an adventure; the complete disregard for reality. I want BA to unload 20 cartridges at a stereotypical bad guy and not hit him once. I want to see a weapon made out of a blender, some rope, and 14 chainsaws. I want to see Murdock flying a V-22 Osprey wearing a Chinese railroad worker's outfit without any explanation whatsoever. The movie has to capture that fun camp feel otherwise it won't be respecting (using that term kinda liberally there) the source material.
I want to leave the theater saying, "I love it when a movie comes together."
I love Neeson, but even bearing the campy fun of Darkman in mind, I don't know if he can remove his prestige and dumb himself down enough for the roll.
