I was highly disappointed with the movie. The Doctor a.k.a. Cobra Commander is a HUGE failure in this movie. Sure, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is a good actor, more notably in Miracle at St. Anna. But he has the unfortunate luck of having to destroy all of your childhood dreams of how Cobra Commander should be in less than 5 minutes of the movie. Pure garbage. A truly unfortunate circumstance in a otherwise promising career of a young actor. I can see him looking back on this film in 10 years from now as one of his biggest mistakes.
I'll agree with Destro (Hiss Tank Destro) on this one, Sienna Miller is easily one of the best looking Baroness choices for the roll. But the lack of Eastern European accent really bugged the crap out of me. She looks like Baroness, moves and and behaves like Baroness, but isn't the real Baroness in my opinion. The only person that could have trumped Sienna in the looks and acting department would have to be Monica Bellucci. That would have sealed the deal right there. Unfortunate that this movie was near perfect for the roll of Baroness. They should have added the accent. Felt like I got robbed somehow. As for Destro/ James McCullen / Christopher Eccleston... absolutely the worst rendition of Destro possible. I hated his acting. He did nothing for me. I found myself falling a sleep to his lines. Arrogant & Boring. Zartan in the movie sucks. Horrible choice for the roll. Dr. Mindbender in the movie sucks. Although, that actor's forehead is pretty massive! Haha! Storm Shadow in the movie... well just isn't the bad ass you wish he would be. Lame & way too polished. Like a trendy scenster kid all grown up and addicted to fashion more than function. I hate that little flip of hair comb over. Stupid. That's just my review of the Cobra side of things. My review of the G.I. Joe side of things is even worse. Marlon Wayans a.k.a. Ripcord single-handedly ruins this movie! Worst choice possible! Stephen Sommers should be fined for putting him in the film! The constant one liners of "comic relief" make me puke! I mean really seriously make me ill. Horrible, utter garbage! Bad choice Stephen! Bad, bad choice. As for the rest of the Joe team, including Snake Eyes, their acting performances are just forgettable when you have as much over the top CG present in a movie like this. They are just drowned out by motion graphics and action. With the exception of Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Heavy Duty, he can do no wrong as an actor, and yes he gets to lay down some serious damage with that cannon! Easily one of the better small points of the movie. But still his performance seems short and his lines even shorter. I think he has the true acting ability to be really, really great in his future rolls. Let this movie be but just a small speed bump in and otherwise long and successful career for Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje. Now to the CG! That's the only thing this film has going for it's self. The graphics are beyond bad ass! But this film seriously lacks substance. Even our beloved Sunbow animations had way more substance than ROC. With that said, save your money folks! I'm doing you a favor giving you the inside info about this polished turd of a movie. You'll thank me when you don't feel the wallet raping that this film is sure to do to you. I would hate to see the amount of negative feedback coming from those of you who fall into the hype and come out of this movie knowing they have just been brain-washed by a massive media marketing campaign.

I didn't see the movie yet, i've read Destro's review, and yours as well, since (at least till here) you've made a "constructive" critic, based on your tastes. The rest of your post is not worth of a quote. Seriously, what the deal with so much talking about rape?

Yeah man from everything I've seen it's the collectors that's keep this going. The 25th stuff was spozed to be a one time limited short run. It's not the kids that's kept this going. It's all of us.
