OK. So the whole point of this blog is to celebrate great movies over looked by snooty awards givers. This movie should have been king of the popcorn movies. GI JOE has a rich history of characters and high action.
The cast is top notch as action movies go. The Rock, Tatum, Byung-hun Lee (CATO) Ray Park (Darth Maul, Toad) Ray Stevenson Palicki... Johnathan Price!!! Bruce Willis!!!
The action scenes are not half bad. But I expected better from a movie of this caliber.
The writing and direction are atrocious. The scenes between action sequences are just stupid, slow paced, poorly written and directed even worse.
Which sucks because the over all premise is great.
