Movie review -- ‘G.I. Joe: Retaliation’

Note: This review does not take into account the 3D aspects of “G.I. Joe: Retaliation,” as it was viewed in 2D.
It’s been nearly four years since “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” graced the big screen, grossing more than $300 million in worldwide box office grosses. That movie was successful enough, but suffered from poor acting on the part of lead actor Channing Tatum, as well as numerous edits. After multiple delays and pushed back release dates, the sequel, “G.I. Joe: Retaliation” is finally here, and it improves on its predecessor in every way.

This time around, Tatum reprises his role as Duke, who has become the leader of the Joes since the closing of the first film. Cobra Commander and his lieutenant Destro are imprisoned in an undisclosed location, but Zartan is running the country, impersonating the President of the United States. When Zartan initiates a plan to free Cobra Commander and aid him in taking control of the world, it’s up to a new batch of Joes to foil the plot and save the world from the tyranny of Cobra.
