If they would have cut all the extra scenes that try to build up a story the haters would have been complaining about that. It is also a ACTION movie not a DRAMA or a ROMANCE. Its a movie nobody forces you to watch it so there is no reason to keep making up BS flaws. I'm going to be looking forward to the blu-ray release and a third installment. Expand

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.

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

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.

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

Wow were the critics ever wrong on this one. Just saw TF2 for the first time tonight and now I want to go see it on IMAX. I thought it was just as good as the first one which I also rated a 10. Great summer popcorn movie with lots of action.

This movie went back to the original cartoon with the comedy and action, and the on-going rivalry between Megatron and Optimus. This movie even had soundwave with Ravage too. I am an absolutely diehard Transformers fan and whoever gave this movie a bad review is just blind, deaf or plain old stupid, because this movie was epic. ALOT of action, traditional Transformers story, and good acting from Shia Labeouf, yes I know Megan Fox is a terrible actress but shes absolutely beautiful. Thats mainly what shes there for.

All the characters have some good and bad things about them, like for example the twins Skids and Mudflap they can be funny but the are extremely racist. I also hate that they killed off optimus in the middle, They brought him back too life at the end but its still the fact that they killed off the most iconic character. Expand

I was absolutely amazed. I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. The good: the effects (zowie!), better jokes and Sam's mom was hysterical. The "twins" also added some great humor. The bad: filming crews tend to forget that when they film with their backs to the sun, they can still be seen. In several scenes, you could see the film crew shadows. Also, in the opening scene, the action was so fast it was hard to tell who was who and it ended too quickly. The ending also screeched to a halt. It could have used a little more cool-down time. The ugly: I also took my two kids (8 and 6). There was, unfortunately, more language in this one and a lot more sexual jokes-- good thing the kids are too young to understand them. There was one scene that I had to cover their eyes because it was a little gross for them. But overall, they loved it.

Then I started talking to some people and some are calling it racist. Personally, I have no idea where they're getting that from. But you'll always find people who complain no matter what. These are probably the same people that said "The Lion King" was racist too. This is a perfect summer flick: amazing effects, well-timed humor and characters you could feel for. All in all, I loved it and I'll definitely see it again.

This film is slightly messy, but only if you don't pay attention. The movie isn't finished yet, and you can tell; there are some funny awkward jokes strewn around, and there are a few minor narrative holes here and there, but I can see where they're heading, and I LOVE it. The plot is very interesting to explore, including the history of Transformers and the lasting effects of that legacy that transcends time. Also you will not find better action in any other film than in this one; the action is nonstop and visually appealing and it will keep you at the edge of your seat. All in all, my childhood favorite and an actually enjoyable watch. Expand

There is no way you can sit in the audience and watch robots the size of skyscrapers fighting each other and not get caught up in the action. The movie dazzles you just because it knows it can and leaves you wanting more explosions, more gunfire, and more giant robots getting ripped in half, impaled, or imploding.

I myself was a fan of the original Transformers, though admittedly not as big as I could have been never fully watching or reading any of the series, and my wife was never into them or saw Absolutely stunning movie for my wife and myself! I myself was a fan of the original Transformers, though admittedly not as big as I could have been never fully watching or reading any of the series, and my wife was never into them or saw anything of them practically at all. We both agreed that the movie was good though. It was fast paced, which apparently must have lost most critics I guess, because everyone seems to think their was no plot. We had no trouble with it though, and it made for such an entertaining movie, neither of us wanted to get up to use the bathroom. I thought there was a lot more Transformers action in this one, which was fun. I didn't have trouble distinguishing the bots like most critics seemed to, though admittedly it would have been a 10 in my book if they had simply gave them a little more time to get to know a couple characters in full like we do with the twins. It seemed to me that a lot was given to characterize robots. People also seem to complain about the twins being racist, but I didn't see it as racist until I heard critics arguing about it. I see plenty of kids acting like that, and believe me, it's not limited to Black, Hispanic, OR Caucasian people. It's just a dialect becoming very ambiguous between gangbanger types of all races, so why does it have to be racist? They're robots. They aren't any color but red and green. The notion that they're a black stereotype is only in the minds of the viewer, which is where the racism really lies. I also thought the treatment of the human-sided plot was interesting and playful. It's a shame most critics think so poorly of the fanservicey moment of Megan Fox's character at the beginning, though they seem to take that moment and blow it out of proportion. If you only read the critics (which I did before seeing it so expecting it to be very sexist) you would get a completely different idea of the character then what she was. The movie had a comic-book styled idea on sex appeal, with the sexual tension on the surface instead of what most movies fall to nowadays, simply having a full on sex scene right out of a porno. Great movie!! Expand

Transformers 2 doubles Seriously, how can you go into a movie based on a cartoon with such high expectations for character development, plotline and "beautiful cinematography" which seems to be all that is needed for a good score these days. Transformers 2 doubles the action and despite some fairly erroneous and somewhat distracting errors in both story and effects creates an amazing experience. I don't recall Transformers both now and during the original cartoons run ever being about the story. It was always second to the eye candy of big guns on big robots. The movie delivers that and more with the added bonus of two total hotties for at least the first 30-45 minutes of the movie. Once people go into a movie expecting more than it needs to deliver, people go on a bashing run around the Internets and through the press. Its sad that films like this which are pure brain candy are treated like they might be the next Ben Hur and subsequently fall short. Expand

Not every movie has to TRY to be an epic drama, there I can't stand movie critics anymore. Pretentious people trying to find fault in everything with nothing better to do than pan whatever they can and following the trends like sheep. Not every movie has to TRY to be an epic drama, there is something called "Let's just have fun at the movies" that I think the critics of the world have totally lost the concept of. Michael bay practically invented the popcorn flick Genre, and this is one of his best examples. This was the best popcorn flick I have seen in a long time. Was it "Schindler's List" or "Gladiator" from a plot standpoint? NO.. Do I EXPECT or WANT that? No... It was more campy than the first, better fight choreography, better action sequences, more character development, had a more robo-centric plot, introduced some very cool characters and in general was FUN TO WATCH. I was not bored at all, and the story did make sense to me (but maybe it's because I remember the original show, who knows). This movie deserves to be in the 70s not the 30s, it was EXACTLY what I wanted from a Michael Bay movie, it was EXACTLY what I expected, which is a fun, brainless, popcorn flick that didn't try to take itself too seriously. Cool action, Cool Cars, Funny Characters, good comic relief moments, and I didn't find the "Racial stereotypes" that at all, they were a funny nod to american pop-culture (why is it OK for Chris Tucker to act this way in a movie like Friday, but not OK for a robot to do it in Transformers? It's not like Mudflap and Skids weren't total bad-asses taking on Devestator, they were comic relief and good in action and if it had been Chris Tucker doing voice talent no one would have cared one bit. Stop being so sensitive about every joke.. the president is black, get over yourselves). Expand

I am so shocked that this movie got low ratings. I am pretty deep into sci-fi Films and this movie is more well thought out than people realize. I wanted Terminator Salvations to be great, but I can't say that it was, but Transformers I am so shocked that this movie got low ratings. I am pretty deep into sci-fi Films and this movie is more well thought out than people realize. I wanted Terminator Salvations to be great, but I can't say that it was, but Transformers was very well thought out and goes into the origins of the Transformers. Some of the stuff could have been left out, but as a whole it was much better than the first. Felt like I was watching the 80s cartoon. Plus trying to interpret much of the film leaves one to really think and even apply some biblical scriptures. Perhaps it's not for the weak of mind after all. Expand

People are going to complain about any summer blockbuster that Michael bay directs. This movie is pure win and nothing but awesome at every turn. There are even a few moments I won't mention that had my wife and I AT TEARS. How they can People are going to complain about any summer blockbuster that Michael bay directs. This movie is pure win and nothing but awesome at every turn. There are even a few moments I won't mention that had my wife and I AT TEARS. How they can elicit so much emotion and human actions from robots just echoes the brilliance of this and the first movie. This is going to be the biggest grossing movie ever - bigger than the dark knight and Titanic at the box office. This movie had it all - humor, cutting edge visual effects, heartfelt moments, lovable characters, excellent score, great pacing, great cinematography, wonderful acting and anything else you can think of this movie had it in spades. I say damn the haters who will hate just because it's Michael Bay. Go watch it for yourself and if you have an open mind and are there to enjoy yourself then you will have a great time. It's kind of hip to be the big non-conformist and go against anything mainstream. Don't sell this movie short because of the critics who are all in their high horses judging what everyone else should enjoy. The only reason it doesn't get a 10 from me is because it was about 20 minutes too long. Expand

Given that probably 80% of the people that went to see this movie were expecting the not so great movies of Bay, and seeing Fox in skimpy outfits and just all out robot warfare, not at all close to the cartoon, then yes, it accoplished all Given that probably 80% of the people that went to see this movie were expecting the not so great movies of Bay, and seeing Fox in skimpy outfits and just all out robot warfare, not at all close to the cartoon, then yes, it accoplished all these things and a little more....cheesy love story, then again, don't we all have that at one point....in our lives?....Great movie to escape from reality no doubt.

I really dont know what people expect from a transformers film. It does exactly wats said on the tin. Really great actrion, better fights than the first film, funny and really enjoyable to watch. It does not feel like a 2 1/2 hour film I really dont know what people expect from a transformers film. It does exactly wats said on the tin. Really great actrion, better fights than the first film, funny and really enjoyable to watch. It does not feel like a 2 1/2 hour film because it engages you so much. I thought it was a class summer film and just the film i thought it would be. To the people that think it is ot how the comics were you the ones saying its not good because theres not enough depth please get over it and remember there robots that are their to fight and thats what they do exceptionally.
