JoBlo.com also enjoys G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA
Someone tell me if they get tired of the review posts…maybe I’m just too “Gung Ho” but I can’t help but link to every review I find, especially since most of them are quite positive. JoBlo gives the film a solid 7.5 out of 10 and says:
“…you may really appreciate what director Stephen Sommers offers up in what could be the biggest, loudest, dumbest flick this year. But it also happens to be an absolutely action packed bit of crazy fun that’ll be worth at least a bargain matinee. “
Most of his review balances the good with the bad, but the reviewer generally seems to enjoy what he’s watching. He wraps up the review with the following quote:
“This is a no-brainer, if you don’t mind your memories of G.I. Joe pumped up a notch and loaded with goofiness, you’re going to have a great time. And aside from some good performances from Dennis Quaid, Christopher Eccleston and Joseph Gordon-Levitt the cast is workable, nothing great, but they are fine where they are. Hell, I’m guessing once this bad boy comes on DVD, I’ll be having a popcorn night with the family and breaking out the toys. Yep, I said it… G.I. Joe may not be a great movie, but it sure is a hoot and a half, just make sure to find that inner child in you that still likes to play pretend. GO JOE! My rating 7.5/10”

Yet another positive review for G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA
One must wonder how many of these will be posted before they’ll be considered “credible” or “legitimate”, but add another one to the list, this time from ScreenDaily.Com. The reviewer gives a spoiler-light overview of the film, and seemed to enjoy it quite a bit. The most notable comment:
“The last big tentpole picture of the summer, opening in North America on Aug 7, is a bang-em-up action adventure stirring traditions from the James Bond, Mission: Impossible, Bourne and National Treasure franchises into a potent new blockbuster brew. An ambitious attempt by Paramount and Hasbro to bring the GI Joe action figures to life after the success of Transformers, the resulting film is a cheerfully entertaining popcorn picture that delivers the goods for a very broad audience and a new franchise for the studio.”
This is pretty much exactly what we’re looking for. The full review can be read by clicking the “Read the rest of the story” link below.
