G.I. Joe: RISE OF COBRA OMGLOL!1!!
February 25, 2010
Okay recently, like in the past year, I watched an animated DC Comics movie. Something about the Justice League or something stupid like that. And I was struck by something, there was an inordinate amount of what I call Bible swearing, words like “damn” and “hell” and things like that. Well I was like, I can’t recommend this movie to parents of young children, but this is an animated film. So I am left to think that the film was aimed at older comic book nerds, but then the plot was hugely simplistic and pretty much written like a freshman high school term paper.
This brings me to G.I. Joe: RISE OF COBRA, and no it isn’t about the government extension of benefits for the jobless. I was watching this film last night on blu-ray, and was struck by how mind-numblingly stupid it is. Basically, it’s a GI Joe live action cartoon with words like “s–t” and “b—-h* and things that I would not consider acceptable for children younger that 15 to be hearing or using. Furthermore, the extreme violence was ridiculous in that it was juxtaposed with completely straight out of the cartoon violence.
I was like, did they really make this for 15 year old boys and 15 year old boys only?
Actually, I think it isn’t even fit for them.
So my point is that, this film is too gory for kids, too stupid for mature adults and entirely inappropriate for pretty much any sort of individual who’s intellect so much as matches that of a potato.
I think the scene that totally sums up the entire mentally challenged feel of the movie is the Paris sequence which amounts to little more than Team America with live action. Pathetic.
