Sigh…..where to begin? I watched the first movie when it came to Bluray, same for this. The first movie was pretty terrible. Retaliation realized this and pretty much rebooted for a sequel. One way I judge how I feel about a movie is how well it keeps my attention….the entertainment bit I mention, this one didn't. Much of the movie I looked up and didn't have a clue how they got to where they got to.
Some of the pluses. I actually really loved the fact that in Retaliation I saw all the great vehicles that I knew and remembered from the cartoon of the 80’s. They were all there, THAT was cool! The story wasn't completely horrible. It definitely made me think that it could have been a special 3 part cartoon back in the day.
The bad, most everything else. I didnt feel for the characters at all. Storm Shadow switches over to help Snake Eyes and I really don't remember why? Also….why did they mention both Cobra Commander and Destro but I don't remember ever seeing Destro? I was really just not into this movie at all. I found myself checking my fantasy baseball team often as you can tell. One of the main names in the movie dies within 30 by the way but don't worry they replace him with a bigger name soon after. When the character died I didn't feel a thing. I didn't even realize it was him at first.
That’s enough on this movie. I'm finding myself drifting off as I write this review even.
Entertainment - 4/10
Visuals - 3/10
Story - 3/10
