"CGI Joe"; Not So Bad Actually
I grow up in the seventies, when GI Joes had simili-beard and a string you pulled to hear it say un-audible things, and that was bended in random, improbable postures in the bottom of my toy barrel.

The kind of scenarios we made up at that age (9-12 years old) were just like what happens in this film; Fast and overblown. We had CGI like that already in our heads. At first I was pulled out by the obvious military ad, then I got suckered in by sheer childish nostalgia.

It works. The vehicle's design have that toyish quality, great designs. Camera work is remarkable too, making the movie much less chaotic in action scenes than, say, Transformers. It is really action-packed from one end to the other, and all of this numbs the mature critic to let the child step in, somehow.

Furthermore, there is a pair of ladies in there that might pass as normal to a kid but that will make sure that daddy watches with interest, too. That Scarlet chick, Rachel Nichols, is quite a feast for the eyes, and classy Sienna Miller also looks real good as a brunette, and acts with a lighter touch, too.

This film is a guilty pleasure; Rationality isn't required here, and certainly won't help; I suggest you leave it at the door, and indulge the kid in you.. Also I recommended Download Free Canine Caddy Movie
G.I. Joe vs. Transformers
So this week I rented both G.I. Joe and Transformers, Revenge of the Fallen. Guess I felt starved for mindless action and, brother, is that what I got and in large doses.

I find Channing Tatum a likable actor, and in Step Up, a severely average movie, he showed he has charisma on screen. However, Stephen Sommers seems to have performed a charismaectomy on him in this movie. He's supposed to be the center of the film but instead gets blown off the screen by everyone around him. Sienna Miller as the naughty countess/ex-fianc. Also I recommended Download Free With A Song In My Heart Movie
