G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra is simple Sci-Fi action built on a military unit's fight against a rogue special unit. Futuristic weapons and skills, results in high-paced fighting, CGI-based entertainment and as usual in such cases, very little focus on good storytelling, balanced focus on plot vs CGI vs suspense-building or any of the other good old elements they used in earlier attempts at the genre.

This being a backlogged review, I can honestly say I don't remember it well enough to have any idea why I even gave it as much as 4/10. It sure didn't make a lasting impression, but maybe the CGI-fighting scenes worked well enough to almost entertain a bit?
