Sorry, critics, but I'd have to say you are wrong on this one. Half to $400 million tends to say you may be wrong and don't know what people are looking for in a summer movie. Try again next time.

Best movie of the summer... and Ive seen it three times since it came out and has not gotten old for me yet. The thing I love about this movie is the fact that there are more action/fighting scenes in this one than there were in the first... along with more explosions. Some people may say that the movie drags on and yes at points it does seem like that, but that's because Bay is trying to show the influence the Autobots and Decepticons have on all the people they have come in contact with (Sam and Mikaela, The Army) before he ties it all together. I don't know about some people, but all this helped keep my attention during the movie... all 3 times Ive seen it so far. Also, showing what can happen in a relationship when one goes off to college was, I think, perfectly portrayed in the movie. Keeping that suspense during the whole movie helped to keep my attention and kept on having me ask myself what was going to happen. The comedy of the twins, especially toward Leo was hysterical. The movie could not have been any better in my book, it will be added to my collection right next to the first one when it comes out, and it is my number 1 recommendation for anyone to wants to see an awesome action film this summer.

As expected, most of the critics and even some normal movie-goers are going to take this movie more serious than necessary. Those people are missing the entertainment in this movie.

I liked watching and experiencing the film of Transformers because it was like watching my childhood memories come back to life.

I liked watching and experiencing the film of Transformers because it was like watching my childhood memories come back to life. Nothing on this planet has made me cry with tears of Happiness like watching Transformers in a realistic movie. This movie is not for newer generations that pick the world apart for their own exploitation of unhappiness. Most people I saw watch this movie were of the older generation of which they shared the experience with their children. Not all people dislike this movie, and for those who do not like it, give grave detail to why you do not like it, and then compare it to what you do like....the things that you do like in other movies, is it anything like this movie, or does it depict your own personality...? Every one has their own likes and dislikes and opinions, and that is ok with me as I do my self. But I would not go on a ranking system and totally discredit where the credit belongs. If you didn't like the movie, at least match what you did not like with an equal response of you did like. Expand

For instance, how come the Constructicon can still form Devastator when in the beginning of the movie it is clearly showed that Optimus Prime killed Scavenger. Also in the Dessert Battle you can clearly see some of the Constructicon fighting. Bumblebee even kill one of them(Rampage). But at the same time Devastator is in the pyramid, climbing. How many decepticons/constructicon are there? All in all though there are some questionable part of the movie...I love it, and will always be. Expand

I have seen the movie 3 times and every time the theater was full or very close to it, and I didn't see anyone walking out or booing or throwing a fit about the movie. There was plenty of laughing and ooohs and aaaahs from the crowd, and it was easy to tell that they were very into it. Perfect summer movie, great special effects, hilarious jokes (so what if some are stereotypical, there are stereotypes in nearly every movie ever made), and acting that was just fine. If you want bad acting, go watch the Sci-Fi channel or something, there is nothing wrong with the acting or dialogue in Transformers. I saw a very diverse crowd each time I saw it, from young to old, and everyone seemed to have a good time, so I don't get where people are claiming that it's only people under 15 years old who like this movie. The fact is that Transformers is a great summer movie that has entertained a lot of people, and has a $200 million opening weekend to show for it. I think that some people just don't like Micheal Bay and are angry that he has made another hit movie, so they try to bring him down by giving the movie bad reviews, but their hate is obviously going in one ear and out the other.

There are a lot things in this film which don't follow any logic (where are all transformers during last battles? It seems, Bay wanted to focus on certain events and characters and forgot all other - maybe it's a trick, but There are a lot things in this film which don't follow any logic (where are all transformers during last battles?

The plot is pretty stupid, but the effects and comic situations make this film worth watching. Action/Comedy of this summer. Expand

This movie was fully entertaining! I went in nervous because of the critic reviews, but everyone i knew said it was unbelievable!

I went in nervous because of the critic reviews, but everyone i knew said it was unbelievable! Whoever went in thinking it was going to be a movie with a Dark Knight or Godfather type plot was stupid, but the story was very good actually. It was entertaining and funny, exactly what a movie should be. They make movies for 2 types of people, 1)The people who look at it as entertainment and 2)who look at movies to teach us lessons about life. Both are unbelievable and this goes with the first type of people. Most of the people that didn't like this movie didn't like the first one either, so why bash at a movie you knew you weren't going to like? Also, the acting was very good in my opinion, sure it wasn't an Best actor or actress Academy award type thing, but it was very good nonetheless. And if it was too loud for you, there's most likely some preexisting thing for you, as it really wasn't louder than the first. And the action was not hard to follow at all! People just don't follow it, and there were no plot holes or goofs, I watched it again on my ipod from a dvd rip i found...if you focus on them you see that they are explained (Except the cast that Shia gets, but it shows Megan fox (Damn!) doing something to his arm when they show him getting up in the desert but i'm not sure what exactly so idk)...I'll show a few of them that i can think of from the top of my head 1)The flag thing in Paris: The flag that the Decepticon breaks off was on a bridge, the flag in the very next scene is on a building so its a different flag...there isn't just one flag in Paris... 2)When Shia gets up after getting hit by the explosion, they show his right side of the head, he got burned on the left as you can see when he's on the ground, the right side just got ashy and black 3)Megan Fox (Damn!) has her jeans slightly dirty at the end, not completely clean...although i guess it should have been dirtier but i can forgive this mistake as i didn't really mind. 4)The whole pyramids thing: The pyramd devastator is on is broken down, other transformers were on some of the other pyramids and the jets attack the pyramids...the John Turtorro thing is a goof i guess though 5)The John Turtorro under the Devestator's testicles was just there for comedy...anyone with a brain could see he was being sarcastic when he said it and it was a part of one of the construction vehicles he morphed with....if it was hanging from his neck you would have said they were bouncy jiggly boobs and saying he was under the testicles is better than saying, "I am under....neath the big robot on the Egyptian pyramid!" 6) THe whole ranking thing...it's a movie! You guys would also be complaining about how Farenheit 451 didn't happen in the 1990s oh well! He was important and saved America they could have promoted him because they needed him! 6) The shangai time and light thing: When they fight the decepticons it is nighttime and dark... Please comment and give me corrections or your opinions this is just what i saw while i watched the movie but i may have missed something or even thought i saw something. Expand

Acting was average, some scenes were unnecessary, and the ending was a little abrupt. But the action scenes were pure awesome and there were definitely quite a few goosebump moments. A must-see.

And also i think to many people judge this movie horribly because of the begining where there is like 3 new Autobots that haven't been talked about in the begining.

Just because the plot isn't good doesn't mean the whole movie isn't good. Surely the plot was horrible, some parts were cheesy, and acting was average, but overall I think it was a great movie for family and friends to enjoy. It contained lots of action, effects, humor, etc. Visual effects we're detailed and clean, the humor was corny but still funny, and lots of fighting. What made this movie really stand out was the action and effects. It isn't the worst movie nor is it the best, but it meets my expectations. I highly recommend it if you are into action based movies. The whole point of watching the movie is to enjoy it, not seeing the plot and everything. It is a very entertaining movie as I see it. Why can't we just all enjoy the movie and have fun? To most people, it's either really good or just plain horrible. And to those people that say anyone rating it a 5 or above is a moron, grow up. It's a damn movie, there is no right or wrong. It's all based on other's opinion. Without doubt, this movie is highly underrated and deserves better. Expand

It was an original action movie, which I can't say about the sequel. Since the main characters are already familiar with the Autobots and we know how everything works, there's almost none of that epic surprise moment. Where the first one scored points, it doesn't do so well here. What makes this film good is the action, which is still plenty and still awesome, even if it still remains far behind the finale from the previous installment. Besides, there is less of it here as the film slows down the pace. From a certain point on, it became quite uninteresting for me and downright drawn out towards the end. The plot is quite weak. Unfortunately Transformers as a franchise failed in my eyes. The first was revolutionary and great, but this one is "only" good. It's still good though and for someone looking for action I can recommend it. Expand
