 | 08.08.2009 - Special thanks to TV5, Myk Kapalaran, and Azrael for the special screening invite of G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra last night at the Glorietta 4 in Cinema 2, which has a simultaneous screening also by Solar Entertainment in the other cinema. About The Movie G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra is a 2009 American live action film adaptation of the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero toy franchise. The film is directed by Stephen Sommers, produced by Lorenzo di Bonaventura and written by Stuart Beattie based on a 1998 screenplay by John Paul Kay. |
G.I. Joe features an ensemble cast based on the various characters of the franchise. Filming took place in Downey, California and Prague's Barrandov Studios. The film was released on August 7, 2009.
The Verdict
Action packed and no dull moment to see this movie. You don't need to be a fan of the original 80's cartoon to see it. Just treat the movie as one of the latest action films to come out this year.
With no comparison to TransFormers: Revenge of The Fallen as previously compared in recent reviews by critics. This one has something to just sit down and enjoy watching a military related flick.
G.I. Joe is the new TransFormers looking forward to see, but not as extravagant or as big as the robots in disguise. I highly suggest not to expect big things for this movie but just keep at as a good popcorn fun on a weekend movie to watch in the big screen.
Overall the movie plays out well expect toys, and comics to fly out the shelves to rekindle your childhood memories of playing the toys.
This one's Three Soldier Stars Out of Five on military levels.
