I might see this. The trailer looks good with the dudes cartwheeling over missiles and stuff, and Snake Eyes looks as badass as ever. And Baroness looks haaaawt! Not sure though, it could turn out to be a movie of absolutely nothing, just effects and cheesy lines.

Ya i totally see where this movie could go bad... But still going to be worth a view.

I saw it this afternoon with my cousin; he and I both grew up playing with GI Joes. We both had very low expectations going into this movie; after the movie was over we were both very surprised we both enjoyed it. Plus Snake Eyes is so kick ass in this movie.

This is by far one of the best movies I have seen this summer next to The Hangover and Terminator Salvation. If you played with GI Joes when you were little or watched the cartoon movies of the 90's go see this movie.

movie looks a bit "cheesy" for me. I'm looking forward to District 9 :biggrin:

To me it looks like they showed all the cool parts in the commercials lol

Just saw it last week and it totally worth a viewing. The special effects were pretty cool and the movie was fast-paced, a perfect movie for a late teenager/young man.

I just set up a good joke....
