The Losers (2010)

The Losers is a really, really stupid movie. This isn’t much of a problem when it’s fun. And sometimes, The Losers is fun. But generally it’s a tonally/logically/cinematically challenged mess.

Like recent fanboy flick Kick-Ass, The Losers is a comic book adaptation that mixes dark violence with skewered comedic quips. In the first ten minutes a helicopter of recently rescued children gets blown out of the sky, our hero (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) drowns his sorrows in Bolivian cock fights, then beats the crap out of a woman in a spicy hotel room brawl (to be fair, she gives as good as she gets). Shortly thereafter, the bad guy shoots his designated “hot assistant” in the face for allowing the wind to briefly blow away the umbrella shielding him from the sun.

This movie is rated PG-13. Are we having fun yet?
