I'm not a fan of either, but Retaliation is definitely better. It captures the spirit of GI Joe better than Rise of COBRA does. ROC feels like a poorly made international spy thriller that's pretty tonically inconsistent. Retaliation feels more tonically consistent and there are stakes in the film that put the Joes in an interesting dynamic with COBRA taking over the White House. The neat premise is just squandered on mediocre direction and writing and the pacing is bad.

Tough call. couldn't even vote. I liked the asthetic of retaliation, but the whole killing off the entire joe team to get rid of Channing Taint wasn't cool.
And, underwhelmed by the snake eyes movie. Didn't feel GI Joe at all, just an 80s ninja movie |

Yeah. They should've maintained the military backgrounds of Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow to make sense of the GI Joe Origins subtitle. |
