Enjoy this series for what it is, Dec 29 2006
By Jacob Putnam "Tech Head" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: G.I. Joe Sigma 6 First Strike (DVD)
It's terrible that this series is getting such low reviews. It's a great series and a fabulous toy line. I have been an avid fan of G I Joe for many years. Now being a 27 year old and still owning my original figures I find it quite enjoyable to see the series in an anime style. The fighting between Snake Eyes and Stormshadow are INCREDIBLE. The way two ninjas going at it should be. I also own all the G.I.Joe boxed sets and find that I fall asleep moreso to the old episodes than I do to the new series cause there is so much more action and adventure with the new. I highly recommend this movie, its a great combination of Western Characters with an Eastern Style!

For kids? Fun! For nostalgia-hungry adults? No., Oct 15 2006
By Brendan M. Howard - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: G.I. Joe Sigma 6 First Strike (DVD)
Adult fans of "G.I. Joe" toys, cartoons and comics books from the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s won't find much to like about the mega-popular brand's latest incarnation, but its new fans will appreciate it.
Compared to the classic 1980s Joe cartoons, there are few funny moments, very little characterization and no complexity among the villains. The classic arguments between the mercenary Destro and the megalomaniacial Cobra Commander are gone. A new part-robotic Cobra minion seems a likely competitor with Cobra Commander, proving that bad guys always fight among themselves, but his plot never gets going. Characters are just pawns for the video game story, which is satisfying on a visual level, but will be boring to anyone looking for much of a plot or even some cartoonish jibes among such formerly cranky and opinionated troops as Tunnel Rat, Heavy Duty, Scarlett and Snake Eyes.
Boys who like the admittedly cool toys will dig watching the figures and toys at work. But only the most G.I. Joe-crazed of nostalgia fans will find these new Joes worthy of a watch. Gone is the potentially timely idea of a U.S. special-forces unit of well-trained but outmatched experts and soldiers fighting against an increasingly vicious, backstabbing, egotistical enemy terrorist force. 9/11 has done away with terrorists as a bad guy for kids, and now it's all anime-style battles and superhero costumes.

Another action-packed ride with the Joes !, Sep 19 2011
By D. Rapson "geekacres" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: G.I. Joe Sigma 6 First Strike (DVD)
I grew up on the 80's-era Joes as presented by Sunbow and I still dig the Joes. The Sigma Six feel is certainly different from that first animated outing. That said, its really cool to see the characters and the toys that are on the shelves in the heat of battle. Yeah, I get it - it's a cartoon made to sell those toys, but it doesn't make the clash of good and evil any less fun.
Duke, Scarlett, Snake and all the other Joes go head to head with Cobra commander and all his goons in full-on anime style. Vehicles like the Ice Dagger and Rhino are great in the heat of battle and I'm sure this movie provides a lot of fodder for the new Joe fans as they act out their own battles between Cobra and Sigma Six.
I only wish that the rest of the Sigma Six series was available for purchase. I would really enjoy seeing what they did with the rest of this show.
Listmania!
