"G.I. Joe - Rise of Cobra" (movie review)

I went to this movie with Alexander. His choice!
The movie is based on action-toy characters - a bit like Transformers.
Americans...they can make a movie out of anything!
The movie was action-packed, fx-packed, explosion-packed...
There were some quieter moments - maybe a few more than Terminator Salvation.
Overall, though, we moved from spectacle to spectacle...
secret hideaways under the pyramids, the Arctic Ice Cap...and the Eiffel Tower crumbling before our very eyes!
Some nifty martial arts scenes and some good ol' tough-boy humour.
A cross between Terminator and Fantastic 4?
Definitely one for "the boys".
And probably of "a certain age" as well.
A bit mindless, but enjoyable-ish.
