Simply put this is an origin story to create the world of G.I. Joe and their global war against Cobra. It pits the international military organization G.I. Joe against the rising organization that becomes known as Cobra. Gen. Hawk leads G.I. Joe with team members Duke and Ripcord being focal points. Cobra is originally thought to be led by James McCullen XXIV but is later revealed to be led by The Doctor who is in fact Duke's best friend thought killed in an operation four years earlier. The Doctor becomes Cobra Commander and is imprisoned with James McCullen XXIV who has now become Destro.
This film adaptation based on Hasbro's action figures perfectly modifies the original animated series to fit within a live action realm. There is no hesitation in the film when it comes to action, the action starts almost immediately and never really stops. I highly recommend this film for anyone who is a fan of the original animated series or any incarnation of the franchise.
