- 88Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertChicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertThe 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.
- 63Orlando SentinelRoger MooreOrlando SentinelRoger MooreThe movie is a stupid, over-the-top comic-booky action picture with the occasional cheesy effect, oddball casting and an utterly predictable get-that-guy-before-he-gets-us plot, but Evans and a couple of his mates make it passable entertainment.
- 60VarietyVarietyThe Losers is the sort of pyro-heavy exercise parodied in "Tropic Thunder," and no amount of production polish can hide the hollowness beneath its junk-food high.
- 60Boxoffice MagazinePete HammondBoxoffice MagazinePete HammondThe Losers not only looks like a low rent, buttoned-down version of The A-Team, but it also resembles a hybrid of other flicks like "Mission: Impossible" and "Inglourious Basterds."
- 50The Hollywood ReporterKirk HoneycuttThe Hollywood ReporterKirk HoneycuttThe film never is boring, but it's never engaging, either, because its heroes hit every target in sight, while the villains, despite holstering much greater weaponry, never hit anybody. So forget about suspense.
- 50Arizona RepublicBill GoodykoontzArizona RepublicBill GoodykoontzThe Losers does a perfectly serviceable job of achieving its low ambitions.
- 40Time OutJoshua RothkopfTime OutJoshua RothkopfThe Losers is the ultimate example, scraped from the bottom of the comic-book barrel, where writer Andy Diggle’s figurine-like characters first had their exploits in an exciting War on Terror.

- 30Village VoiceVillage VoiceA busy, unsatisfying comic thriller, poorly acted by a grab bag of new faces and franchise movie refugees, and set to a hard-rock soundtrack.
