Watched it last night. One of the first movies in a while that I had many issues with.

1. UMMM, where was Cobra. You give me Cobra in a GI Joe movie in the last 10 minutes?
2. Zartan sucked big time.
3. Where was Shipwreack, Bazooka and Lady J?
4. You do not kill main Joe characters like Cover Girl and Storm Shadow. WTF
5. I was ok with Cobra Commander not being in his real form the end, but Destro needs to be Destro.
6. Way to make the Baroness be lame and weak.
7. Brendan Fraser was the lamest character of the movie.
8. So no bad Baroness and Storm Shadow if there is a Sequal?
9. The Joe's suites where way beyond lame, but I can kind of look past that.
10. My biggest issue, Channing Tatum as Duke. This is mother flippin Duke

Show some respect to the character. Channing Tatum should have had a dress on since we was so compassionate and soft spoken.

I was expecting the worst and came out pleasantly surprised. I was entertained and so was my son. A complete popcorn movie. Ofcourse I has some issues with the movie but I would watch it again.

Well, you all are right, not worse than Transformers 2. It was just as bad. Just an awful movie. I guess I can see how some people might be entertained, but if I wanted to see bad special effects, horrible acting and a nonexistant script, I'd watch The Last Starfighter. That at least was entertaining. This was terrible. How Stephen Sommers can get directing jobs is beyond me.

I thought this was almost unwatchable. I turned it off about halfway through.

I enjoyed it. It's def not better than transformers 2 though :)

I recently watched it. I don't get why some are comparing to T2. This was a silly popcorn flick, while T2 was groundbreaking.

My son loves the nonstop action though, so he was happy.

Transformers 2 was "groundbreaking"? You must be referring to Terminator 2, which is 10 times the movie this OR Transformers 2 was.
