　　Snake Eyes:G.I. Joe Origins(2021)

Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins is an example of a good idea with decent execution. Snake Eyesalso doesnt feel like the previous G.I. Joe movies, which is a good thing. Director Robert Schwentke tried to make a gritty drama with G.I. Joe characters and a distinct visual style, and it worked, more or less. After witnessing the death of his father 20 years prior, a young boy grows up to be Snake Eyes (Henry Golding), an underground fighter with elite combat skills.

Snake Eyes attracts the attention of Yakuza boss Kenta Takamura (Takehiro Hira) and joins his organization after being promised the identity of his fathers killer. However, Snake Eyes refuses to kill Tommy (Andrew Koji), Kentas cousin and heir to the Arashikage clan, an ancient ninja clan. Snake Eyes now gets a chance to train in the ways of a ninja and gain a new home. Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins is decent despite its bad rep, but give it a try and decide for yourself.
