Review of G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009) by Omar L — 05 Apr 2013
Good action? Check. Weird weapons blowing things up good? Check. Good fight scenes? Check. Not taking itself seriously? Check. "Knowing is half the battle?" Check.
This movie succeeded where Transformers 2 didn't in that it never tried to be more than what you expected: a fun movie with gadgets and crazy villains. Think old school Bond, but with a team.
EDIT 06APR13: This movie doesn't age well in memory. It's fun in the moment, but it simply doesn't feel like it's a movie worthy enough to recommend. I also cannot forgive ICE THAT SINKS.
