G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra - Movie Review

I finally got to watch GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra, FINALLY! At first I didn't mind waiting to watch it until it got to DVD, b/c it only got OK reviews. But after watching the trailers and commercials for this film, I decided that I wanted to make the judgment for myself.

First off, the movie doesn't seem to follow the original storyline that I remember, but it didn't stop it from being a good movie. The storyline was interesting. It's about how Cobra became to be, and who the GI Joes are. There was a few surprises here and there, and there wasn't any slow parts from what I recall. The movie had enough action to keep me entertained, but not overloaded to the point where it was overwhelming.

The one thing that disappointed me about the movie was that they killed off the korean guy. Byung-hun Lee played Storm Shadow, and from what I remember about the cartoons is that Storm Shadow wasn't a side character.
