His company MARS sells four warheads to NATO, and the U.S. Army is tasked with delivering the warheads. Duke and Ripcord are delivering the warheads when they are ambushed by the Baroness. The two are rescued by Scarlett, Snake Eyes and Heavy Duty. They take the warheads to the G.I. Joe's command center, rendezvousing with General Hawk. McCullen is revealed to be using the same nanotechnology to build an army of soldiers with the aid of the Doctor.

Add a CommentI really didn't like this movie. I thought it was really lame. The storyline was boring and overall it just didn't hold my attention.
Very good action movie and really entertaining.
This movie was entertaining and interesting but not one of my favorite for this year. “Not too bad---good performance”.
One of the worst movies ever...dumb everything. They also tried to make it "hot" with that dumb Boom Boom Pow remix at the end credits... FAIL on every level! Stick to the cartoons. G.I. Dumb
I only liked it for the explosions. Storeyline was only suitable for a young teenage boy. Dont waste your time on this olne
it feels they spent half an hour on the script, and then just threw in a couple action scenes. it got boring after 15 minutes
Wow, what a waste of time, and plastic. DVDs only cost a few cents, but I'm sure spending it on a lollipop would have been a better idea. As others have commented this movie is simply a testosterone ride, and that's alright for some. But the technical goofs, bad science, and poor writing were simply inexcusable. Examples such as explosions underwater with flames, being able to move a submarine though water at the same speed as you would though air when water is 400 x denser. There's also the fact that ice has a tendency to float on water (at least it does when I do it), so I'm curious how they figured that blowing up the ice-pack would crush the underwater laboratory. There's lots more, but suffice it to say that you should save your brain cells, and forget this mess.
Horrific movie. Director thinks a lot of noise and action can replace script, plot, acting, story. Gordon-Levitt has one of his worst performances in his career. Very miscast.
Just another mediocre rendition of a great bande dessinée. Shame since it could have been so much more. Way too much testosterone for my taste.
It's OK for a summer action film, though it gets a little silly. I think it drew more inspiration from the cartoon than the better comics.
