Loved it...lots of action!! Great movie if you are looking for action and cool hich tech toys, not a lot of substance but I wasn't expecting it from a movie based on an 80's kids toy line. Lost's of action, it's a great movie. GIJoe was even better then I expected it to be! Amazing actions, insane effects & good layout. The story flowed nicely & kept me on the edge of my seat! Bring the same imagination you had as a kid playing with action figures to this film and you're in for a fun ride. Easy to follow plot of the movie even without background knowledge about GI Joe. I was pleasantly surprised by this movie! Tons of action and great use of the special effects -- not overdone. Highly recommended. G.I. Joe is a great movie for its genre! The action is continuous, the characters follow the cartoons from 20 years ago and the production/CGI is flawless. I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this movie, and look forward to watching it again. Please keep in mind this is an adaptation of a kids toy franchise (that turned into a cartoon)- when viewed with that in mind, this film is knock-out success. Enjoy! I believe that movie was a good modern take on the 80s cartoon, but moving the GI Joe to a gobal force (not a american hero) was a mistake, it seemed odd.
Also I think the casting was really off.
But the movie made up for it by touching up on a number of the GI Joe story lines (Soild Snake, Duke's love story, the rise of cobra).
I think overall it's more then we can ask for an update of a 80s icon. Lots of action, great special effets. GI Joe has definetly changed from when I was little. I would love for my little boy to see it but he is only 6 and I think it was a little to violent for him. |
