Just after Transformers' sweep at the box office comes another movie from the Hasbro Toy Company. For those who've seen the cartoons, read the comics, or collected the toys, it might rock your world but I wouldn't count on it. If you're looking forward to see a movie about real soldiers, you might want to pass. If you are expecting a superhero movie, you might also want to wait for this to come out on DVD or your favorite movie channel. If you wish to see a typical action movie with all the cliché moments and cheesiness, this might be for you (note the helping verb "might"). G.I. Joe is nothing more than your average action-adventure flick with plenty of the usual. The story in this film isn't something new either and they don't even give a shot at making it appear new. The "action" effects in G.I. Joe doesn't measure up to my standards. The movie felt so long because of the dialogue which I didn't bother to listen to. There are a few cool scenes though but that just doesn't compensate the typicality of this movie.
