Michael Bay has done it again taking this well known kids cartoon with a large cult following and making it into an action adventure that makes the adrenaline start pumping. He wastes no time starting us off with a big fight scene where the you are dazzled with a great computer generated spectacle of transforming, exploding and robot fighting.
The Good - The movie was action packed with lots of fight scenes as well as many slow-downs where we get a good look at the action. The addition of new characters really builds up the team and we get to see some more great cars as well as motorcycles. GM added no expense for this movie, it seemed that all the good cars were GM and we saw a BAD GUY which was a beautiful Audi which was destroyed first thing?Talk about your haters!
Michael Bay really loves showing off the CGI capabilities with so many amazing spectacles especially with his fights. With all the added robots in the movie there were plenty of fights available to be amazed with. I can't get over the look of the robots actually transforming...its great!
Megan Fox in this movie was particularly foxy in this movie, it seemed as though the new generation who don't know about Baywatch are appreciating the slow motion run, and where we can all appreciate Megan's mammary glands. Not only was she beautiful but with the added explosions occurring around her, it made the movie a giant SPARK for all guys to fall in love with this beauty. After this movie we'll be seeing her on the cover of many Maxim Magazines yet again!
The Bad - The movie seemed to have wanted a lot of little cheap laughs here and there. Some were funny and appreciated by the audience, even I laughed, which is good medicine. However, I feel that they tried really hard to get some laughs; they even created two characters that seemed to be for pure comic relief. There was also a certain monster that was much larger than everyone that seemed to have two giant demolition balls where his testicles would
be?easy laugh but really not necessary.
It seems as well that Michael Bay has a fetish for mini robots, its crazy as to how much he loves incorporating those little guys into the movie. I think he has an emotional desire to have one of them as a pet. So since he can?t he over compensate his crazy fetish by adding tons of little robots everywhere.
In the story when Sam enters the college seen we of course have the competing girl who seems to be the Anti-Megan Fox. She?s sexy, flirty, and...oh wait...she's also a freakin robot. Where is this coming from? If all Decepticons could transform into a girl like that they could rule the world
easily all looking like that! Just doesn't make sense!
Verdict - I would definitely prescribe this movie to anyone who enjoys action, scifi and even the cheap chuckle here and there. Its definitely a prescription worth the 10-12 dollar movie ticket and would definitely be worth the purchase.
If your symptoms include action depravity then you'll love Transformers 2:Rise of the Fallen.
