Joe http://gregthepappabear.com/2009/08/14/gi-joe/ http://gregthepappabear.com/2009/08/14/gi-joe/#comments Sat, 15 Aug 2009 03:31:33 +0000 Admin http://gregthepappabear.com/?p=68 I saw G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra earlier this week.  I was entertained, and recommend seeing this one in the theatre, only because of the special effects.  If you have a big screen with a great picture, you might want to wait and rent it, but only if you also have excellent speakers because I thought the music was outstanding.  The acting needed some help, especially Channing Tatum, who provides eye candy (according to Taryn), but not much depth as Duke.  The best performances come from Marlon Wayans, who does an excellent job with the comedic moments in the film (although he doesn’t play a White Chick this time), and Sienna Miller, who gave a surprisingly stirring performance as the lead female, providing depth as she shows both sinister and saintly sides of the same character.  

I give the acting a D+, the special effects a B+ and the score a B.  Overall:  C
