Pros: Great special effects, riveting action sequences, interesting gadgets. Cons: Poor plot, weak characters.
When my son told me he wanted to see GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra, I attempted to influence his movie decision away from this film. We looked at the other movies that were currently showing and decided on Ice Age Dawn of the ...
Pros: CGI Cons: Nothing but CGI, non-existent character development
After seeing a movie which I loved on Friday ("Julie & Julia"), I decided to see the film that I knew would win the weekend "box office war": "G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra". What a constrast! "Julie & Julia" is character-driven ...
Pros: a few good cast members Cons: incoherent action sequences, lacking in depth, frustratingly bad dialogue
Any G.I. Joe Movie review has to start with a reviewer admitting that they went to see the movie in the first place. It's sort of like an admission to supporting films of lesser quality in the hope of enjoying two hours of mind-numbing ...
Pros: Brought G.I. Joe to life; Snake Eyes vs. Storm Shadow Cons: Bad dialogue and inconsistant special effects
I can honestly say that I have never been a diehard G. I. Joe fan and I'm glad I'm not because I would be out for blood after watching G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. Director Steven Sommers (of The Mummy trilogy franchise) actually ...

Pros: Doesn't require a lot of heavy mental lifting. Cons: Okay, it's sorta stupid.
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra centers around the adventures of Duke (Channing Tatum) and his buddy Ripcord (Marlon Wayans), U.S. soldiers entrusted with a mission of critical importance - the delivery of non-weaponized nanomite warheads to a secure ...
Pros: Gimme some time and I'll come up with something... Cons: Not enough room in this space to go into it...
If I were to state that GI Joe: The Rise Of Cobra was a ripoff, I'd mean that in a number of meaningful ways. If I were to accept that Hasbro's (the toy company which markets GI Joe) association with the film was strictly a ...
Pros: Great performances by Sienna Miller and Leo Howard, Decent Plot, Caters to Boyhood Dreams Cons: Casting of Channing Tatum as Duke, Rushed Ending, Disjointed Plot
SUMMARY:A decent plot and action scenes save the movie. Casting was a mixed basket of great and not-so-great decisions. This movie would have benefitted from a thicker plot, a bit less suspension of disbelief, better fight ...
