The Gi Joe Movie sucked
Not as much as the transformers 2 movie. But it was so bad it made me cry.

1. what were you expecting?
:shrug:

Looked like a huge steaming pile to me, but I'm not really attracted to action movies, so I guess I'm not their target audience.

2. Meh, I liked it enough.
Reminded me of the old cartoon. It had huge problems but I thought it was fun.

You want good sci-fi? Go see District 9! I saw it and it was wonderful!

3. If a movie makes me cry, it's a GOOD thing... But, then, I'm a big softie.
Sheesh, it's GI-fucking-Joe, for Crissakes. What did you expect? The only reason to make the damn thing is to blow things up. Like Transformers, it's a movie based on a cartoon that came out after I got too old to watch cartoons (anime doesn't count). Look what they did to Scooby-doo, for Gawd's sake. That was bloody fucking awful.

Consider the source material. 95% of anything Hollywood makes based on DECENT source material turns out to be shit on a reel.

4. So basically you're saying that it was better than EXPLOSIONS 2 by Michael Bay
That's quite an endorsement...
