Warning: Spoilers
In short, they butchered a pretty cool character for absolutely no reason.

The overall movie was painfully predictable, but in a slightly different way to the typical bad film. To elaborate, each scene makes you hope the stupid things you think will happen, won't happen. Tragically, they happen so abundantly that the plot literally twists itself out of existence and the main character's only accolade by the end of the film is that he's successfully ruined another supporting characters life.

Brief Breakdown:

1) There's barely any character development, Snake Eyes is unjustifiably proficient with a katana when he's never been trained to use one.

2) It's clear that the script was poorly written, there was no depth and a lot of cringe dialogue.

3) Impactful scenes had zero build up, hence they weren't impactful.

4) As a testament to how poorly produced the movie was, they somehow left in a scene where the main character spoke in a British accent (accidentally - there was no reason for the British accent in the scene, it literally doesn't fit and must've been a mistake).

5) Every scene featuring the magical stone that can make anything spontaneously combust makes no sense other than to drag the story on (countless times where the villain doesn't just kill everyone for literally no reason - someone's grandma literally vaults 20ft over the villains head and he just watches the whole thing).

6) The main character achieves nothing but ruining a friendly characters life and ultimately turning them against him.
