Well critics are
a tough bunch to please. In the first movie, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, most of them said that
the movie was cartoonish, bad written, over the top with bad acting, like the
action figures were playing themselves, but at least it was somewhat funny. But
despite that the movie did well at the box office, and the studios thought it
deserved a sequel and so they came up with G.I. Joe: Retaliation, and because
they listened to the critics, some measures needed to be taken, like changing
the director, writers and adding some new Joes to the mix. The new director,
John M. Chu said that this movie was “grittier” than the first, because that’s what
the fans wanted to see, but now the critics say that the acting has improved,
it’s more “real”, and they are not really sure if that’s what this movie
needed (make up your minds).
So what’s the review
on G.I. Joe: Retaliation?
Here at Galactic
News One we think that the movie does what it’s set out to do. Put a smile on everyone’s
faces while they eat a bucket of popcorn and drink a soda, and for that it’s a
3 out of 5 in our book. Its entertainment and nothing more, don’t expect to get
out of there with some brilliant insight on who I am, where I came from and
where I’m going, just seat down, relax and enjoy the movie, directed by John M.
