Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins stars Henry Golding as Snake Eyes, a tenacious loner who is welcomed into an ancient Japanese clan called the Arashikage after saving the life of their heir apparent. Upon arrival in Japan, the Arashikage teach Snake Eyes the ways of the ninja warrior while also providing something he's been longing for: a home. But, when secrets from his past are revealed, Snake Eyes' honor and allegiance will be tested -- even if that means losing the trust of those closest to him.

Critics Consensus

Far from silent and not particularly deadly, Snake Eyes serves as a step up for the G.I. Joe franchise, thanks in no small part to Henry Golding's work in the title role.

Audience Says

The story isn't great and the characters don't make much of an impression, but a great cast and lots of entertaining action make Snake Eyes a fun solo adventure for the fan-favorite hero.

Independent (UK)

Snake Eyes seems to barely recognise the talents of the cast it has on hand.

Rated: 2/5

Kevin Maher

Times (UK)

It's the franchise that nobody wanted, featuring characters that nobody cares about and starring an actor who struggles with the basics of the craft.

Amon Warmann

Empire Magazine

Snake Eyes finally speaks, but with frustrating action scenes, a middling story and unearned sequel-baiting, there's not much here that's worth listening to, or watching.

Rated: 2/5

Branyan Towe

Loud and Clear Reviews

Ultimately, Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins isn’t a very good film and serves as a case of wasted potential. Hardcore fans may be able to overlook the film’s editing issues and have a good time with it.

Rated: 2.5/5

El Nuevo Día (Puerto Rico)

Thanks to the work of its director and his successful collaboration with the stunt masters, Snake Eyes avoids the classification of disposable commercial fare and graduates to basic and efficient entertainment... [Full review in Spanish]

Henry Golding is FANTASTIC IN THE MOVIE & he SAVES THE FILM. Without him I would of found the film boring. The action is too shaky & will give some headaches, & even the story here is way too much.

Great actors and great action, I appreciate attention to detail with fight scenes. This has a better storyline and action scenes than the GI Joe movie a they made years ago.

Waist if money..wait for it to come out on DVD. Just disappointing because it does not explain why snake eyes took his vow of silence. Just mediocre at best. 3 stars
