Transformers 2 Review

Transformers 2 Revenge of the Fallen
C-

Michal Bay is back with Transformers ROTF the sequel to the 2007s extremely popular Transformers movie. Witch means more explosions and robot on robot action. But can they fix the major problems of the last film?

Well one thing they haven’t fixed is the story. It is horrible. Really horrible. The story at some points is so dumb it dose not make sense. So I’m not going to give it any more credit than it’s good giant robots (auto bots) trying to stop evil robots (deceptions) from destroying the sun and Sam Witwiky (Shia LaBuf) is the only one who can help the autobots stop them. Ya it’s really bad.

One thing they have improved is the action. It’s no longer confusing. You can actually tell what is going on. You can tell that Michal Bay got a lot of money for special effects because the special effects are even better than the first by far.

As for the acting it is okay and that is stretching it. Shia LeBeuf is well Shia LeBeuf and that’s ok but that’s as far as it goes. Megan Fox seems bored in this role and I would not blame her as she is basically there for eye candy. The other human roles are good but if not annoying and sometimes unnecessary. The robots all perfectly done except for two autobots who are so annoying with offending unnessisary jokes.

Well Transformers ROTF is an okay film. The story sucks and the acting needs improvement but the action and special effects managed to keep me entertained. Michal Bay films are improving maybe next time he will follow through with a good story and actual characters you care about.
