Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
cricketbat Wow. This movie is really bad. . .surprisingly bad! Poor acting, horrible writing and awful special effects. It has some fun-ish moments, but, for the most part, you should know that it is a sloppy thrown-together mess - because knowing is half the battle.

funkyrobo Enjoyed the pace of the movie. For all GI Joe fans it is slightly disheartening as the characters were not well built. Graphics were good for 2009. Cast was strong but like mentioned earlier the characters were very weak. Portrayal of animosity and romance was fairly platonic. The villains were great escape artists and the hero's were good seekers. Almost the entire movie was a prolonged hide and seek game and GPS was almost always used to locate the enemy. Anyhow, now that watched GI Joe rise of cobra, I may as well watch GI Joe Retaliation.
meritcoba When the closing music started to die down Henry rose from his chair and smiled, "That was a fun movie.""A no brainer," Kristl said, while she pocketed her hand-held. Henry frowned at her, "I never expected you to use a hand-held during a movie.. I thought you would consider that to be a sin.""I am guilty I confess it. But then this a movie that doesn't require your attention at all. There is nothing much going on besides non stop action.""Well, it is an action movie, so that would be pretty much essential.""I agree.. Although it would be nice if this movie had something more to deliver but action packed scenes.""Well, there is the story of these two ninja warrior types who were opponents.""The story of the two fellow students, one good and one bad, fighting each other throughout the movie? Where did we see that before?""Well..""Or the two lovers who break up, in which one ends up with the bad guys and the other with the good guys, just because the one disappoints the other because he doesn't keep her brother safe in a combat zone? Where have we seen that before? And...""Well. Listen here, Kristl... This is an action movie nothing more or less.. So why the criticism? Just a popcorn movie that is all spectacle and no brains. What else is needed?""I understand that.. but listen. These movies are made with millions and millions of dollars. They are filled with actors, filled with action and filled with specials effects..I mean.. geez they even topple the Eiffel tower at some point.""Yeah.. that was fun.""Now with all these resources at their command. With all the money involved.. how much would it have cost to hire a good writer to write a good script?""Well. It is a movie that doesn't require a good script.""Fair enough.. So..... Let me rephrase it.. Could they not have written a script that does not look like someone stole pieces from other scripts and put them together to make one new, but badly arranged, script? The white and smart mouthed black side kick? The spurned love? The two students who are each opposites? The love affair between that black sidekick and the red head who at first is cold to the advances of the first, but then of course over mellows..The plot, almost stolen from a random James Bond movie? The bad guys who seem runaways from a Marvel comic? And so on and so on.""Eh.""..If we just accept that movie makers do not feel obliged to put time and effort in a proper script and dialog and we let them get away with it, then they will be churning out bad movies. We should not stop criticizing someone because it is just a fun action movie. That is what I belief.""So you feel like you could change the world by mere criticism?""Well.. maybe we could... what else is there left?""How about.. having fun?""You have yours.. and I have mine..""Let's drink some coffee on that."
