G.I. Joe: The Rise of the Cobra


This is your every day good guys vs. bad guys movie that has been done a million times. Based on your popular children's toy, you get to know the "Joe's" or our modern day heroes fighting to protect the world from all evil. The movie does have your typical plot centered on the bad guy having some weapons that will destroy the world and the good guys have to stop him and save the day. That being said there are some pretty cool gadgets and fight scenes and lots of eye candy, so if you don't expect too much you might enjoy the action.

Stop-Loss


When a couple of small-town soldiers return from Iraq they are thrilled to be home until the find out their team leader has to go back. The movie focuses on the stop-loss military policy and the re-adjustment issues soldiers face when returning from war. Not the best script, but interesting subject matter.
