After saving the life of their heir apparent, tenacious loner Snake Eyes is welcomed into an ancient Japanese clan called the Arashikage where he is taught the ways of the ninja warrior. But, when secrets from his past are revealed, Snake Eyes' honor and allegiance will be tested – even if that means losing the trust of those closest to him.

Although not 100% accurate to the source material, snake eyes embody the character's spirit entirely. The casting and writing of this film redeem the previous 2 G.I. Joe failures completely. This film has set the groundwork for The multi-movie franchise the true G.I. Joe fans have deserved! This film introduced quite a few characters within the Joe universe and left plenty of room for many great films to come. I wouldn’t call this is a must-watch, but it does deserve some level of admiration and respect. I particularly liked the fact that in keeping with the original spirit of G.I. Joe, snake eyes learned a valuable moral lesson throughout the film. Yo Joe!

The acting was good (even if there weren’t a lot of moments to showcase it) and the fights were good but the movie overall was very very mediocre. I think they had a chance to tell a really impactful origin story here but that’s definitely not what happened.
