G.I. JOE: RETALIATION Review. Was It Worth The Wait?

G.I. JOE: RETALIATION Review By: MattInRC While it has its issues, the long-delayed G.I. JOE: RETALIATION is better than Rise of Cobra . But that's not saying much. I completely understand how upset Nerd America was with 2009's G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra . It was silly, poorly cast, and barely stuck to canon, resulting in an embarrassing debut for the franchise. The movie was passable as rainy day fare, but I do get the venomous reaction that emanated from Joe fans. Undaunted, Paramount moved forward and in 2012 G.I. JOE: RETALIATION was set to be released. Trailers were previewed, Hasbro's toys were sent to the stores, and then something extraordinary happened: the movie was postponed one week before its release. In an act unseen for as long as I can remember, moviegoers and Joe fans cringed and questioned Paramount's 'We're converting the movie into 3D' hogwash. And so finally, after almost a year of delay, Retaliation arrives in theaters...

PAIN & GAIN RED-BAND TRAILER

Paramount and Michael Bay have delivered the Red-Band trailer for PAIN & GAIN . Let's see if your pumped after seeing this trailer. And of course there are explosions in the movie. You’ve got to feel a little sorry for Wahlberg – he’s admirably bulked and toned here, but standing next to The Rock , even when he’s crouching, just makes anyone look a little less impressive. Pain features the duo as Floridian body-builders who get embroiled in a web of kidnap and extortion that also drags in folks played by Anthony Mackie, Ed Harris, Ken Jeong, Tony Shalhoub, Rob Corddry and supermodel Bar Paly (because what’s a Bay film without a supermodel these days?) The story of the crime that goes badly wrong for all involved sounds a little too good to be true, but it’s real all right – Captain America scribes Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely based their script on Pete Collins’ 1999 articles in the Miami New Times.
