Because it's totally got lots of the cast, and more importantly, it's better than that big budget version.Toy/Cartoon accurate (unlike that film, too), and it's got some interesting scenes. Still, don't expect anything over a B-grade film, but for what it is, it's amazing.It's a very, very corny movie ("Duke" sounds like Ahnold), and everyone has pretty terrible accents, but if you are a fan of the 80s franchise, the fights are pretty cool (the music is however not). The DVD has a sorta prequel film with "Snake Eyes" fighting "Storm Shadow". The "Joes" pretty much have to bust up a sex ring and it has "Cobra Commander" (here, the organization is just.. Serpent or something, but his uniform is 100% toy accurate). I like that "Snake Eyes" can talk, but it hurts him lots, which was sorta established in the Hama run on the original comics. You also get "Scarlet", "Firefly", "Beach Head" and tons of martial arts scenes. I really do not like the music AT ALL, and it's a very B-film, but if you are a legit Joe fan, the adult ten year old in you will probably kinda dig this film. It's got some T&A in it as well, like when "Baroness" interrogates "Duke".It's pretty corny fun, hah.
