Review: G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)

When a shady arms dealer threatens the world with his schemes and the use of highly-advanced nanotechnology, the world turns to G.I. Joe, an elite unit composed of the best military operatives from around the world.

And if that sounds kind of cartoony and silly, then that’s just because that’s exactly how this movie is.

Based on the popular toy line of Hasbro, The Rise of Cobra is your stereotypical Hollywood summer film: lots of bang (literally) for your buck, filled with big explosions, shiny rides, and a general silliness about it all.
