Stallone's final action movie of the 90s.
on May 30, 2012
Posted by: cobracommander15
from Washington DC
This was the last of Stallone's 6 big action movies in the 90s, which began with the man vs. nature thriller, Cliffhanger. This one is played more straightforward and serious. There is no evil villain to overcome. Parts of the film are very realistic in the human interaction. Other parts, are simply fun 80s style action. Stallone plays Kit Latura with a convincing world-weariness. Amy Brennaman is ok as the female lead, but forgettable. LOTR fans should look for Viggo Mortenson in an early role as an extreme sports celebrity.
What's great about it: Good action movie. Man vs. nature. good supporting cast.

Good Blue ray. nice extra features

I enjoyed this movie. Fun to see Arnold at the beginning of his career. Movie runs kind of long, I found myself fast-forwarding to the good parts. The Special features are pretty good too. If you are a fan of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, you will probably enjoy this movie as well.

Single disc. The "Real American Hero" goes international with this big-screen action film. Stephen Sommers (THE MUMMY) directs this live-action adventure featuring a huge cast of stars, including Dennis Quaid, Channing Tatum, Marlon Wayans, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Sienna Miller. Ray Park, who made his name playing Darth Maul in THE PHANTOM MENACE, takes on the role of Snake Eyes.

I have waited for this movie my entire life. It is great when it respects the comic source (Breaker's gum chewing, Hawk is the General instead of Duke etc). It was distracting to see Hawk dressed as Flint, The Baroness as an American involved with Duke, Roadblock...errr Heavy Duty with a Brittish accent and no Shipwreck. Since the cast is made up mostly of Stephen Summers' actors, why did he not ask Hugh Jackman to fill in for the Sailor. Brendon Fraser also pops up for 5 minutes as a Gungho / Sgt Slaughter fascimile. This was a fun movie, and Channing Tatum was great, but I was left wanting something more in line with the Comic. I thought that was kind of the whole point of the film. If they just wanted to create something new, why even use the G.I.Joe name. Also, I actually thought the acting was pretty good across the board.
What's great about it: The Look of the Baroness and Snake-Eyes are spot on. Scarlett fits in nicely and Dennis Quaid seems enjoy playing Hawk.
What's not so great: Cobra Commander should be a used car salesman/ Fascist Dictator, not a mad scientist. This was an unnecessary change.

Lots of Fun! Michael Keaton is the Best Batman

The packaging is very nice. It is more like a documentary of the Batman character than of the 1989 movie, but it still works. The special features help provide perspective, and demonstrate the impact this film had on the genre by influencing Spiderman, Iron Man, G.I.Joe-The Rise of Cobra, and the Nolan/Bale Batman series.
What's great about it: Good Special Features, nice packaging.
What's not so great: would have liked more interviews with Michael Keaton
