my initial reactions:

- Liked the awesome action sequences a lot!

- Didn't like how some of the story went against the established material!

- Liked Scarlett a lot! so hot! so very hot! :D

- The Baroness character was better than I expected

- The ninja action was as good as I expected

- Flashbacks were good for character background and story development

- The vehicles were used quite effectively and appropriately

- I was very sad about what happened to Cover Girl

Saw this on friday night and it slightly exceeded my expectations, which were very, very low. It started out strong, and I was quite enjoying myself, right up until around the part when the GIJoe team arrives on screen! I didn't really enjoy how 'x-men' they seemed, nor their incredibly advanced technology.

I thought Destro(up until he got his mask), Zartan, were both really good. In spite of the controversy around the character, the Doctor, he was quite good as well, but again, right up until his big "change" at the end, which should have been a big moment, but felt completely lame and falls totally flat.
