I really liked learning more background on Cobra/GI Joe. I really liked Destro's background.

The lines were cheesy, but they needed to be IMO. That's how the cartoon was.

CGI was good for the most part. A couple of places looked bad, but for the most part it looked good.

I just wish there was a moral lesson at the end of the movie like in the cartoons. Knowing's half the battle. h:

On a side note, I was supposed to see this w/ RicoD. He canceled...
i felt the same way wharbone. i used to watch the cartoon religiously. couldn't say that about transformers. but every morning before school and every day after school i would watch GI Joe. I remember having to go to school after seeing Duke get stabbed by Serpentor (cause they ran the movie on TV in 4 parts) it wasn't a good day.
