Not bad for what it is. Not as campy as lets say Speed Racer. But pretty good, great CGI & special effects. Storyline pretty good. Down falls to the movie Dennis Quaid as General Hawk, and the kid from 3rd Rock from the sun as Cobra Commander. Costumes where great except for giving Snake Eyes lips. What the hell that all about? First Optimus Prime and now Snake Eyes. For good old fashion fun when watching a movie definately one to check out

"Technically, GI Joe does not exist. But if it did, it would be comprised of the best men and women from the top military units in the world, the alpha dog's. When all else fails we don't." Built on the philosophy that any line of Hasbro action figures will translate to the big screen with lucrative results (à la Michael Bay's Transformers), G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra is exactly the type of overblown, loud, mindless summer blockbuster it clearly aspired to be - a cartoonish actioner of ornately costumed good vs. evil with large explosions, plenty of CGI, very few nuances and some woeful acting. The filmmakers behind G.I. Joe visibly intended to replicate what a 10-year-old boy's imagination might conjure up while playing with his action figures, and the result is an action film highli...Read more

Considering I knew it would be a bad movie I actually liked. It's trashy but has great action scenes. Most of the plot is predictable and I didn't mind. It's fun and does your job as a blockbuster summer movie.

O que você costuma procurar num filme? E o que faz com que você goste dele? Normalmente a resposta depende de com que tipo de filme estamos lidando, e do nosso humor na hora em que nos sentamos diante da telona ou da TV de casa e apertamos play. Mas é basicamente a idéia de “ser convencido” e “ser envolvido com a história” que procuramos e que nos faz sorrir de satisfação quando as luzes do cinema se acendem após uma boa sessão. Em G.I. JOE, se você espera ver cenas de ação eletrizantes, lutas que grudem você na poltrona e movimentos acrobáticos ultra bem filmados, sinto muito, você vai esperar sentado até as luzes acenderem. Tudo bem, talvez eu é que não seja tão impressionável, mas as cenas de luta são tão mal exploradas que dá sono. Cansa de ver. Se ...Read more

Seeing the trailer for this made me nervous, you know; another awesome idea for an adaptation put into the wrong hands and flunking. Wrong. This is one that stuck with me.. for the better. To create an entire movie as dedication to one of the best action figure lines imaginable is awesome, and the film actually brought me back to my childhood days. For example, they follow the snow outfits to a T and the personal hellecopters make their way onto the screen as well. Each side, both the Joe's and their enemy had futuristic weapons that weren't too over the top or unbelieveable. The nano technology actually gave me goosebumps, hopefully that can't be achieved by humans anytime soon (if it isn't already out being tested) The overall story wasn't bad at all, not too lovey and/or boring, and eve...Read more
