With all of its explosions, I’m still not impressed.
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen tries to replicate the original film and does not take time to advance much of any plot. A piece of the cube from the original film comes back and Transformers struggle over its implications.
Most of the Transformers are heartless and mindless beings. The best part of the film is when Shia begins college. I wish Transformers 2 focused more on this and the potential hilarious outcomes of going to college while trying to fight robots. The story is hurt by the way that the film is edited. Scenes go on and on and on. Just because something looks cool doesn’t mean that it flows well with the story. The film should have been much shorter.
If there’s one thing that stuck in my mind after watching this film, it’s that I want a Camaro! Damn that car look $weet!
First off it’s: Transformers: Revenge of the fallen. Second of all I know it didn’t have that thick of a plot but it had several new transformers and I think that the special effects were fantastic. I’m not sure why everyone is talking so negatively about it. It was one of the best movies I’ve seen and I’m looking forward to watching it in the theaters again. I also thought they did a great job on revealing a little bit more about the all-spark and how its power can’t be destroyed.
D’oh! Thanks Jake for picking that up!
First off Jake, I see no problem with the title that’s written so I don’t understand what you are attempting to fix. And second, this movie was sooo good. It actually had a story line (unlike the first) and cleared up a lot of little things the first movie skipped over (like the Allspark stuff etc.) The Decepticons were pretty bad ass and made an extremely entertaining movie to watch. I give it 5 out of 5 stars and would certainly recommend it to people. Plus, there’s an amazing scene with Megan Fox running in slow motion. That alone should be enough to make you want to see it.
Yeah I agree, it did have some sweet decepticons like ravage. I’m not necessarily all for the Megan Fox thing but I too would give it a 5 out of 5.
I found Revenge of the Fallen to be superior to the original movie. My major flaw with the first movie was that it wasn’t a transformers movie, it was a Shia Lebeouf and Megan Fox with robots movie. The focus on the actual transformers rather than some rather annoying twenty something actors was a change I welcomed.

i thought the second movie was much better than the first. the twin auto-bots were hilarious. i don’t remember laughing so much in the first movie. i also got a little misty eyed when a certain auto-bot was killed. i gave the movie 5 stars and i plan to see it again. one draw back, it was soooo long.
