I cannot say I hate it, but can't say I like it eather.
The cameo by Brendan Frasier was not needed, period.
As much I like Stan Winston company's Special effects work, in think since he died the quality dropped with it like in this movie, and the CGI should have been done by ILM. And while reading the novel and Comic was more interesting, the movie remind me of the... ugh... Masters of the Universe movie. I mean Cobra Commander was not captured in the books to create Cobra, but in the movie?!!
The Eccelerator suits still not what I like, it makes technology too much a factor of the skills of the team, and not the indiviual skills of each member of the team, but then again ain't that all action movies these days.
And I so still feel the Ninja hate with Storm Shadow with a gun or the removal of the relationship with Scarlett and Snake Eyes. Snake Eyes earned her love and respect painfully in the Hama verse but like in Resolute, the scared and disabled don't get the girls, they do the job and left in the wasteside, only the fit and pretty boys do, ugh.
The New vipers are still... I see them more for Red Shadows with the skull-like Helmets then Cobras... thought the figures do make interesting custom ideas.
At the end of the movie, I felt something was missing, but couldn't put my finger on it, and i still can't figure it out. None the less, I can asume that Hasbro took too much involvement on this one and the writer's strike hurt the story like it did with transfomers 2. I hope if a new director (and maybe new writers)is chosen on the sequel, it done better.
