5.0 out of 5 stars Adult Animation Awesomeness!, October 13, 2009

This review is from: G.I. Joe: Resolute (Widescreen) (DVD)

G.I. Joe: Resolute first aired in 7-minute installments on Cartoon Network's [adult swim] in the summer of 2009. For adult fans of the 1980s cartoon series this is as close to perfection as an animated Joe feature can get. The animation style has a much more sleek and anime feel to it, but these are still the same characters and it's set in the same "universe" as the 1980s cartoon. "Resolute" has all the classic characters (Baroness, Destro, Cobra Commander, Duke, Snake Eyes, Stormshadow, Scarlett, etc.) from the '80s cartoon, but it treats them with a PG-13 rather than a "Saturday Morning" sensibility. There are bullets and blood and death.

The plot centers on another attempt by Cobra Commander to overtake the world and the Joes rallying to stop him. The highpoint of the film for me included the ultimate battle between Snake Eyes and Stormshadow I always dreamed of as a kid. If the 2009 feature film had half of the energy and emotion as this one fight alone it would've been an infintely more enjoyable film. Bottomline is if you were a 1980s Joe fan and found the live-action film lacking then you will be pleasantly shocked and awed by this outstanding animated feature.

This review is from: G.I. Joe: Resolute (Widescreen) (DVD)

This cartoon captures the true spirit of G.I. Joe. A group of elite specially trained troopers working together to eliminate an evil organization who are determined to rule the world. It's true to the characters from both comics and the cartoon with the exception of Storm Shadow's true intentions in his background. Cobra is proven to be more of a threat then ever. Forget the movie this is the Joe fans have been looking for. Oh and yeah no acceleration suits!

the closest we've come to a comic accurate cartoon and it was written by warren ellis who knew nothing about the brand before his coming to it. if you enjoy this even a little, check out the gi joe comics currently coming out from idw press. especially cobra by mike costa, its a (pardon the pun) grand-slam!
