G.I. Joe Retaliation
SCORE: 46
I will admit it I have been dreading reviewing G.I. Joe Retaliation on Blu-ray and DVD for some time now. We rented the movie and it was so horrible that I waited for it to hit rock bottom prices on Black Friday. I have also not been very interesting in watching and/or reviewing G.I. Joe Retaliation.
There is so much wrong with G.I. Joe Retaliation that it can be difficult to find a place to begin. The lack of military protocols is astounding. Enlisted do not tell officers what to do. But since The Rock is their big star, well he gets to ignore any kind of military protocol, and all military intelligence.
There is blood, gore, explosions, death, enticement to lust, and bad language in G.I. Joe Retaliation. You know what G.I. Joe Retaliation makes me miss? The cartoon. Even the comic book. It was scandalous when a few characters were killed in the Larry Hama comic book. G.I. Joe Retaliation murder count is really high. And of popular characters too.
The time line mistakes in G.I. Joe Retaliation are even more baffling. Is anyone associated with this project paying attention to the G.I. Joe continuity? Cobra Commander would not leave Destro. Storm Shadow only turns good very late in the storyline - not in the second movie.
G.I. Joe Retaliation fixes Cobra Commander’s helmet. They explain it was supposed to look like an accident in the bonus section. Fan created live action movies were better than G.I. Joe Retaliation. Even Bruce Willis can not redeem this movie. Pass on it, and save your money.
