So earlier today, Harry Knowles of Ain’t It Cool News, was able to see an advanced screening and mentioned via Twitter that he thought G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra was great. Well now he’s written up a review for it and has nothing but great things to say. Visit the forums to read it in its entirety.
“Now – this opening sequence, it is actually kind of intensely scary, but in a VERY COOL WAY! Essentially, the pre-Cobra flying ship comes swooping in, using some energy weapon to completely wipe out the Apaches – and laying scorched Earth pimp slapping of the Humvees. This ship swats the missiles fired at it out of the skies. This one segment of the film, tonally, is just so much fun. Because when you’re the best trained American Soldier… getting your ass handed to you by an enemy that makes your weapon systems seem like Bow & Arrows… that’s a new situation.”
