I have to say....

This pains me greatly...

but I have to apologize to the producers of GI Joe. The movie was a good, no-brainer action film that was not very objectionable. The major flaw is that Duke talks like he is a putz chav who should be hanging out at the mall instead of the field commander of a special operations unit. With that said, the "reboot" of the franchise was great.

To make matters better, the video game for the PS3 is outstanding. They have done something very cool in that they don't just stick to the characters in the movie, but expand it to the toy line. So Duke, Scarlett, Rip Cord, Breaker, Hawk, and Heavy Duty all look like they are from the movie, but you also have a ton of other Joes to pick from like Shipwreck and Gung Ho. They also have a supporting cast that communicates with you. For whatever reason they turned Dial Tone into a woman, but oh well.
