In this update of the ’80s TV fave, the title mercenaries try to clear their names after they’ve been framed for a crime they (of course) did not commit. Liam Neeson takes command as Hannibal Smith (George Peppard’s original TV role), while Bradley Cooper takes over as Templeton “Faceman” Peck. Jessica Biel, “District 9’s” Sharlto Copley and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson co-star; watch for original “A-Team” members Dirk Benedict and Dwight Schultz in cameo roles, but don’t look for Mr. T, who opted out. At multiple locations. (118 min.) PG-13; intense sequences of action and violence, profanity, smoking.
