The team--Clay, Jensen, Roque, Pooch and Cougar--find themselves the target of a lethal betrayal instigated from inside by a powerful enemy known only as Max. Presumed dead, the group makes plans to even the score when they're joined by the mysterious Aisha, a beautiful operative with her own agenda.

    The movie gets the job done, and the actors show a lot of confidence in occupying that tricky middle ground between controlled satire and comic overkill. It's fun.

    A breezy, dumb and lightweight film that has the benefit of not trying terribly hard to be about much of anything and succeeding (bravo?).

    Lithe, bold, often funny and full of characters to cheer for, it never pretends to be anything more than a trigger-happy romp. If that’s what you’re after, The Losers offers plenty of explosive entertainment.

    Whether you're betting on action or laughs, this is a lose-lose scenario.

    i purchased a copy of The Losers,and found it to be such a great movie, that when my copy was borrowed and i hadn't received it back after a couple of weeks, i purchased a second copy. The story is excellent and the cast is well suited for the parts. There is action, humor and I find it a very balanced movie for anyone. I would love to see the same actors back in a second movie.… Expand

    Totally fun action movie. Really straddles the line between over-the-top action and satire. Sure, it's ultimately disposable entertainment-- but who says that there is anything wrong with that?… Expand

    This movie is a lot of fun. I think it could have used an extra 15 minutes to explain a little more fully exactly what was going on, but even without it, you have a pretty clear idea of the plot. It's shot really well, the music is awesome, and it's PERFECTLY cast. Perfect. Anyway, I'd recommend it to anyone just looking for some awesome explosions and and a wealth of attractive menfolk.… Expand

    Hunt. Kill. Disappoint. When it comes to comic related films I get excited and maybe others do too but I think these Losers have disappointed us in filmmaking. Not a bad movie when it comes to action and special effects but other scripts and story are lacking a lot.… Expand
