My Opinion on Joe

My Opinion on Joe

Did it flop, rock, or somewhere in between?

I would say that the movie isn't a total flop, but at the same time not the best movie I have seen. I did enjoy this movie, but there were many times when I rolled my eyes and couldn't believe the cheesiness. For example, several of Ripcord's pick-up lines to Scarlett were just plain stupid. Not to mention Duke's inability to off the Baroness when she was escaping with the warheads. Also, the CGI was just plain horrendous. It looked like something straight out of a cartoon. I would say as well that the casting was definitely far from perfect, but not terrible. Now aside from all of these things the movie as a whole was a pretty decent action popcorn flick. The action scenes were great, especially when Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow were fighting. What would I change to make this movie better? More Snake Eyes, a different actor for Duke, and more Snake Eyes. It was about as good as "Transformers 2," so if you could stand that movie then this one is about the same. Overall, the movie was pretty good. I would recommend seeing it.


CGI - 1/5
Acting - 3/5
Sound Effects - 5/5
Overall - 3/5

The sound was good. I agree. I thought Dennis quad was actually the worst. Knowing isnhalf the battle? The end when he's adressing the troops and saying "we've still got more joes out there to save". Someone next to me in the theatre actually laughed outload when he said that. And i like him but he was horrible

oh and lee77 is off somewhere crying about the cap poll

I dont need to see this movie I already know what's up...Richard Pryor in Superman(flop),Jimmy J.J. Walker in the GUYVER(MAJOR FLOP),ANY WAYANS IN A ACTION ROLE JUST PLAIN BAD. Leave the comedians to their silly, funny roles, and stand-up routines. Leave the action adventure to the real MEN. You know the ones we all can atleast believe can be a secret agent,superhero,or even a street cop.

i woulda put GISlow with Wolverine , i liked them both, they werent great or my favorites or live up to the hype by far but enjoyable ...both have weak acting from some, shotty CGI and some weird plot/ story changes...with Joe being and lil under Wolvi overall....

...and Ror nothing compares to the steaming pile of dog sh!t called DBE...

Star Trek is my movie of the summer so far, with TF2 close beind it because of weak ass story and Sam in autobot heaven or whatever..

...SPOILER...and i still wanna know how the hell Scarlet , Snake , and French Monocle Guy went up and elevator to some exploded ass ice...that was sinking...
