GI Joe: Rise of Cobra (2009)


I must say, this movie should not even be made. This is the worst excuse of a movie. Probably one of the worst movies I have seen in a long time. I didn't find even one thing that was interesting about this movie. On August 7th, GI Joe: Rise of Cobra was released in America and opened with $54.7 million dollars on its opening weekend. The general storyline is about a man who is enlisted in a top secret team that is assembled by the government. They must fight against the CEO of the company named MARS and a evil villain named Cobra Commander. They have a fight in Paris but then go to the Arctic for one last final battle. Now, in this movie, there are so many things wrong with it. The first time I watched it, I fell asleep. Then a friend dragged me to see this horrible movie once more and I fell asleep once again. Then I finally saw the whole movie with a bag of chips and a bottle of coke and finished the movie with a headache. The acting in the movie are not inspiring at all with very predictable and uninspiring script. The special effects are nothing special and generally looks like a video game. HALO has better graphic effects than this movie. And the action sequences of this movie are good for the first 5 minutes but are generally way too long. A sword fight between a GI Joe member named Snake Eyes and a Cobra member named Storm Shadow is actually pretty impressive until it takes Snake Eyes at least 20 minutes to finally stab and defeat Storm Shadow. If were to remove all the action sequences in this movie, there wouldn't be enough to make a 3 minute trailer for the movie. The whole movie is just action and a horrible and predictable plot. The only good things about the movie are the gorgeous actresses, Sienna Miller and Rachel Nichols, and the Alpha-6 Accelerator Suit which the characters wear which enhance their power, speed, and jumping ability. Other than thad, the movie should have not been made into a movie. If you want to see a ridiculously stupid movie with just nonstop and tiring action, then go watch this film. If you want good plot, good acting, good screenplay, good timing of action and special effects, than this is not the movie for you. I met die hard GI Joe fans in the theory who didn't enjoy the movie at all. I give the movie a 20 out of 100 (I'm giving it a 20 just because of Sienna Miller and Rachel Nichols). I'm hearing news that there is a possible sequel in the works. They shouldn't waste their time making it.
