Today, G.I. Joe fans got the final trailer for the upcoming movie Snake Eyes. Just like every single movie trailer in the history of the entertainment industry, this final attempt at hyping up fans puts in a good effort to do so. The trailer is full of action, a surprising amount of emotion, and also does a fairly good job of letting viewers know what they're in for.
THE The intertitles in the final Snake Eyes trailer are really funny because Paramount has plucked three quotes from the same outlet — the new G.I. Joe movie is desperately craving some hype but, clearly, there are not many takers. Surprisingly, the new Snake Eyes trailer doesn't say “with the star of Crazy Rich Asians”, which you would think would be the obvious bit to use for marketing.
KISSING BOOTH 3 TRAILER REVIEW
Yes, the trailer for this action movie is — predictably — action-packed. You've got samurai sword fight scenes, buildings on fire, explosions, and at one point you see the titular character literally slicing an enemy's motorcycle to pieces while he somehow rides his own, backwards, without crashing. But there's more here than meets the eye. In between smash cuts of action sequences, the emotional origin story of Snake Eyes' and Storm Shadow's relationship is laid bare. Snake Eyes was supposed to kill him (for reasons which aren't touched on in the trailer) but "saw honor in his eyes" and couldn't pull the trigger. In return, Stormshadow gives him what he's wanted most - a home. And as sweet as their bromance seems on the surface, you know things are going to go painfully wrong while riding the emotional rollercoaster that is this movie.

In addition to Golding and Koji, Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins — as goes the unwieldy franchise-marking title — also stars Úrsula Corberó (Money Heist) as Cobra's second-in-command Baroness, Samara Weaving (Ready or Not) as G.I. Joe and Arashikage agent Scarlett, Haruka Abe (BBC's Ideal) as Arashikage trainee Akiko, Takehiro Hira (Giri/ Haji) as clan outcast Kenta on a revenge quest, Peter Mensah (Spartacus) as Arashikage's blind co-leader Blind Master, and Iko Uwais (The Raid) as Arashikage leader and Tommy's uncle Hard Master. Robert Schwentke (R.I.P.D.) directs Snake Eyes off a screenplay by Evan Spiliotopoulos, and Anna Waterhouse & Joe Shrapnel.
Snake Eyes is out Friday, July 23 in cinemas worldwide. There's no word on an India release date given most cinemas are closed and Viacom18 simply saying “coming soon to a theatre”. In the US, Snake Eyes will be available September 6 on Paramount+ — that's 45 days after its theatrical debut.
