It is getting terrible reviews. Which means that I will absolutely love it.

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra Movie Reviews, Pictures - Rotten Tomatoes


I remember when Siskal and Ebert or Ebert and Roper critisized Happy Gilmore which has become a classic.

These critics are what is wrong with cinema. They always want the feel good story with the perfect screenplay, plot and acting. The type of crap that you expect from theater. This movie is not theater, it is based on a cartoon. They say it was noisy, never ending mindless violence...Hello, what do you expect from GI Joe? It was a cartoon, a fantasy if you will, intent on sparking the imagination of children. Damn it! It's just fun!

If they want to see theater, then they should just watch Brokeback mountain over and over...they raved about that one...bunch of fags.
