I can't remember the last time I desparately wanted to walk out of a movie. I felt cheated and insulted by this movie. It's offending to even think that they consider this entertainment, what-more, to charge a full ticket price of this garbage.

The other day I thought about watching this movie again and got a sour taste in my mouth that I had to wash away with garlic fries and soda. The sad part is that I've known people to pay and watch this movie at least 4 times IN THEATER.

Sure the plot was a little disappointing, the acting was sub-par, but as a old-time transformers fan, I have no issue with it. The expectations were set way too high when the movie is intended to give good special effects and action sequences, and that's what Bay is good at, and that's what he delivers. Personally, I think if you want a touching plot, Oscar-level performances, go see a movie that actually looks like it's going deliver. If you want explosions, mindless action, and an entertaining two hours, I recommend this.… Expand

Micheal Bay returns to transformers with a even worse sequel to the original . i had no hope for this film but one never does know till they see it for themselves. yet again bay destroys more of my fond memories of transformers from a kid .Micheal Bay returns to transformers with a even worse sequel to the original . i had no hope for this film but one never does know till they see it for themselves. yet again bay destroys more of my fond memories of transformers from a kid . lets see here we have a plot that even makes less sense then the original . more of shilo stuttering like a jack ass , more bad jokes , more pointless action with transforers blowing every thing and each other up who arnt given more then 1 or 2 sentences through the entire movie . with not a shred of charcter devolpment ever to be done peroid . i mean i like seeing stuff blowing up and giant robots kicking the crap outa each other but id also like to know about the robots doing it what they are like why they fight but no they basically have about as much personality as a rock em sock em robot. this whole movie was just basically a giant action jerk off fest layered on with bad jokes. this does 0 justice to the original transformers series . so yes if you have a IQ of a rock ,or like seeing demo derby's for mindless destruction , or are easily amused like seeing car keys or some thing jingled in your face . then yes you may like trasnformers 2. lets face it 25% of the population is retarded they think the govt. is responsable in making 911 happen or think obama is a muslim . so no im not to suprised that thoose same morons liked and payed to see this crap.… Expand

Let me start off by saying I've enjoyed the first for what it was but most of this film made me literally angry, it was so fucking shit. The dialogue/ characters was disastrous, Uwe Boll looks like a genius next to this fucking moron Let me start off by saying I've enjoyed the first for what it was but most of this film made me literally angry, it was so fucking shit. The dialogue/ characters was disastrous, Uwe Boll looks like a genius next to this fucking moron and 90% of the time in the fighting scenes I couldn't even tell WHY there were explosions and it just seemed like a shit load of metal sounds. It's also odd how the robots acted so much like humans in the way they fight/ act/ talk. I didn't pick up on that the first film but I did here, probably because there is much more dialogue scenes and so on which were NOT needed and yeah, just literally pissed me off over how dumb they were. Oh and when an old robot is re-activated he has a beard and a walking cane WHAT THE FUCK!? Fucking ridiculous movie that highlights everything wrong with American culture. The mom character especially. oh.my.fucking.god, she was so fucking terrible, I just wanted to stick a chainsaw in someone's eye. And no you can't say "lol just go in it and have some fun", that WAS my attitude before it started pissing me off with scene after scene of absurd idiocy. The humour pisses me off just thinking about it...When the dad slaps the mother's ass, the main douchebag guy says "hey watch it, this isn't a rap video"....Yeah...wow. And the way he says it adds to the annoyance. The effects were spectacular, I'd give it that. I loved when robots got sliced you could literally see very inch of metal, wires and whatever come apart and that was about all I've enjoyed along with some of the action scenes. And the overall story was kind of interesting if it was told better but it wasn't and unfortunately the great story that seemed to be in there just couldn't come out under such retarded direction which is a huge shame. 2/10.… Expand

Where do I begin to describe how thoroughly unpleasant an experience it was to watch this movie! From the very beginning one of the biggest problems is Bays inability to keep the camera static for even a second. The worst example of this is in a scene early on in the movie in which Sam and Mikaela are stood talking to each other in a romantic embrace, this had potential to be a romantic and engaging moment in an otherwise emotionally barren film, however Bay has the camera doing 360 degree whirls all over the place, completely ruining the moment.

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

Make up your minds, people. Most of the action I thought was pretty satisfying, and the film more than fufilled my need to see stuff blow-up. The plot is really weak, however. Some of the sex and drug gags were funny, but they need to be cut WAY down in number. Shia and Megan, however, can't act to save their lives. The orchestra scores for the movie were really well done, in my opinion, but can we cut back on using overrated bands in the movie? Yes, I'm talking to you too, Linkin Park. That's all about a 4 right there, but the extra point comes from the fact that Shia LeBouf dies (even if it was only temporary).… Expand

I have read so many reviews about plot holes and robots who act like the stereotypical black man. Plot holes: it's funny cause I do not see one example of the plot holes in these reviews. Every time I watch the movie I dont notice any plot holes. As for the stereotypes, If dave chappelle or ice cube would have made this movie would it be an issue. No. Both have used stereotypes in thier films you know why? Because they are funny. Megan Fox's character was so different in this movie because Sam brought out her true self or did you not get that from the first movie. It is one of the reasons she likes him.She does not have to pretend to be anything she is not around him. The only reason I did not give this movie a perfect score is for two reasons. Number one is that during the battle in Shanghai it is very hard to tell who is who and whats going on most of the time. Second reason: Although she is beautiful Megan Fox's acting is not on par with the rest of the cast and it stands out. If you put a bruised apple in the middle of a bunch perfect ones you will notice. Some times its hard to believe she loves Shia's character. All together though Transformers 2 will blow you away with explosive robotic battles and keep the laughs rolling with the funny cast. A must see for anyone who loves comedy, action, and a little lame romance all bundled into a great movie.… Expand

Easily the worst movie of 2009. Zero script. Zero acting. Zero character depth (I'm referring to the Transformers - although the human characters were quite superficial as well).

Zero character depth (I'm referring to the Transformers - although the human characters were quite superficial as well). In terms of presentation, the CGI was also dreadful. I couldn't tell who is who since the transformers look almost identical to each other. Even worse, they all just look like a pile of cogs, wires, and bolts. Pretty awful design... A film needs first and foremost a good, solid, coherent script. The rest come easy and natural once a good storyline has been established. The biggest mistake of Transformers & Transformers II is that the Transformers are playing supporting roles while Shia LeDouche and Megan Faux are the main characters. There are two major flaws with this : 1. The movie is called TRANSFORMERS !!! Which means humans are optional and even if their involvement is deemed necessary, they are ultimately unimportant. For example : Who cares if LeDouche goes to college? Why should we care? WHY? What if he had gone fishing? Would that have any effect on the movie plot-wise? What if he had gone to Las Vegas to gamble and party with prostitutes? Speaking of prostitutes, why is Megan Fox dressed like one? This is supposed to be a movie based of children's toys! 2. LeDouche & Faux cannot act. That is a fact, NOT my opinion. Neither of them can act. Period. The bad humor, the cliche and insulting stereotypes, and especially the nonsensical plot completely destroy what could have been a nice, enjoyable movie. It's sad that people like this $200 million crapfest. It wasn't entertaining even a bit. Transformers II is not worth neither your money nor your time. My advice : Just stay away from this movie.… Expand

Transformers 2 has a great opening and special effects and its entertaing for a while but there are far too many flaws with a lame plot, terrible gags and far too long. its metal banging for 2 1/2 hours.

This is a new low in film making.

I this is the worst movie of all time. i was so dissapointed in this movie. no one that has seen this movie has been able to explain the storyline with certainty. this movie is so bad, i want to campaign against it. begin analysis: why doesnt bumble bee talk when in the end of the first movie he had his voice? how can a piece of the allspark stay stuck on your sweater for 2 years and you not notice? why does humanity still not know transformers are on our planet when jon voight in movie number one had a press conference to tell the world? why does the film need 3 humping scenes where a character is humping another? that is a pathetic attempt at getting laughs. the movies overdoes the comedy. i hate the mother. why do i need exclusive scenes with her doing comedy? meagan fox needs to just stop acting and do porn because all she is good for is looks. ( i hate that booty shot of her!! i like booties but that was out of context! they waste no time in showing you why they hired her) the writers didnt even try to tell a sci fi tale, they told a comedy!! why is the only transformers in the story Prime? Imagine a Ninja Turtles movie where the turtles are in the background, getting one or two lines, and leonardo getting the only dialogue which consist of "leadership dialogue" and the rest of the movie is about human characters doing idiotic gags. thats what this movie is! ITS A COMEDY FEATURING THE TRANSFORMERS!! the "robo warrior" plot device is pathetic. what a coincidence that leo spitz happens to know where robo warrior works and "what do you know, it's jon tuturo from sector 7!"-so pathetic of a script, i swear. the cartoon has more brains than this. the best part of the movie is the first 9 minutes, there is an awesome opening in shangai with lots of destruction but as soon as prime shoots the decepticon, the movie takes a super nose dive that a kamikaze pilot would be scarred of. the special effects aren't as astonishing as the first movie and when you finally get to the big showdown, half of the time is spent on the humans reacting and when prime confronts the fallen, he takes em out in like one minute. the special effects couldn't even save the movie and i hate the twins!! out of all the robots in the roster they create these ignorant stereotype racist creations!!!!!… Expand

Very corny and lame movie. A lot of scenes just felt completely out of place. No plot. They tried way too hard with the special effects to the point that scenes just look bad / very fake because they tried to do too much. Would not recommend.

Guys keep saying Megan Fox is easy on the eyes, but she's not easy on the brain. She can't act worth her life, and neither can Shia. The jokes are childish and those two robots which talk in slang are so stereotypical that they border on racist (the slang, the golden tooth). Also, like others say it's way too long at the end. -Oh, btw, the special effects aren't so great because they ARE overused. It's like the movie's creators have no sense of restraint or control and just keep piling more on top of more. -And for those who say that this movie's great and anyone who expects a good story and character development are hoping for too much: how come The Dark Knight was such a great movie?

GOOD: -Bay /actually/ included 'Bee, whom I adore with every possible inch of my innerself, and so scream every single time I see a Chevy Camaro in real life. -Whoa, they actually made a second movie. -I liked seeing all of the new characters, and contradictory to what everyone esle says, I didn't mind Skids and Mudflap that much. But perhaps that's just because fourteen year olds act like that most of the time. So that means most of the kids at my school do that as well. -I loved the action, although sometimes it began to be overbearing. BAD: -What the hell ever happened to the Secretary of Defense?! They made a big deal of all the government security efforts in the first movie, leading up to a sequel, then TOTALLY DROP ALL OF IT?! What?! -They made Obama look like a doofass. Wtf?! But, then again...they made Bush look like a doofass in the first movie, so I guess it makes up for it. -Four words: Not enough robot scenes. It was mostly humans. Um, Bay, last time I checked the movie was called "Transformers", not "Aw Look at Sam being socially awkward at college *angstemoangstangst* and Mikaela acting like a total slut! :D" Yeah. I just said that. -I was /actually/ looking forward to seeing 'Bee a lot in this movie...-obsession-...and I barely got to see him. What's up with that?! -Let me just quote someone from a review I read once, "Bay might as well have made a movie about Mikaela's bouncing tits, and it probably still would have sold just as well." ---Sums in up in one sentence. Mikaela, please, put your shirt back on and quit getting boob-jobs. -Ew. Ew. Ew. Ew. I think I speak for the over ten million emetophobes out there when I say, "What the fuck is up with Sam randomly hurling in the library?!" Did that even have a real purpose besides make me reconsider my popcorn buying habits? What about those sympathetic vomiters? Do you think I /really/ wanna look over and see someone puking in the middle of the movie? Nuuu. -Why Bay? Why? I was actually happy for like, the three minutes that Sam was dead. And, hell, even though I love 'Bee, I LOVE that expression that came across his face as he dropped to his knees in sorrow and disbelief. Absolutley amazing. And so why is it that it's impossible to find that clip? I think that sums it up for now...so...thus my horrid rating. It wasn't worth going for all of the things Bay did to fuck it up, but it was worth going to satisfy my Transfomers fix that I'd been having for about three months prior to its release.… Expand

Also, Jetfire, they created his character with the premise that he is a very old, ancient cybertronian, but they "again" with all the horrible humor, had him walk around with a cane?, and his pieces fall of his body as he walked around, they revived him with the AllSpark sliver, but its still a fragment of the AllSpark, and that in itself gives them life, so this is just simply a ridiculous venture in the movie. There are so many issues about this movie, but its to much to add here, i give this movie a 2, because they showed a very done fight between Optimus & the 3 Decepticons, but only because it was very nice eye candy, If Optimus had a hard time facing off against Megatron in the First, how he could hold off Him, StarScream, & Blackout (The Helicopter) is a pretty huge inconsistency in the Story line yet again… Expand

Many questions surfaced during and after: Why were there so many plot holes? Why did they have that whiny new character? Why did that old guy have to rip off his pants in front of the camera? Why is that robot humping Megan Fox's leg? Why couldn't I tell what robot was fighting what robot? Why are my ears ringing so badly? What was the plot? Why did that one robot have a beard? Why are those two robots stereotyping black men? Why are they attempting to run from so many explosions in slow mo? Why is Megan Fox's character completely different this time? Why did Michael Bay allow -- more accurately -- contribute to making this a terrible movie? Why did I waste my money on this garbage?

I thought my expectations were lowered significantly by friends and critics, but they were not. I wanted to like it. I liked the first one (about 7/10), but this one was totally empty for me. There was absolutely no rising action (and I don't mean plot, which I already discussed). By that I mean the final fight was not any more awesome than the first one.

What I got was: Dogs humping eachother, giant robot testicles, a 50 year-old man wearing a thong, horribly shot action sequences, a very forced love story, and a script that could've been written better by Dr. Seuss. The only element that tries to save this movie are the special effects, and it's not nearly enough to redeem the extremely poor quality of Micheal Bay's grotesque directing "talent". If you want to see a good movie with great action sequences, spend 10 bucks and go see Distric 9, a film that cost a fraction of what Transformers did. 1 out of 10.… Expand

The first one was way better. This one made me a little sick to my stomach. I like Shia but can he please make a better film. Michael Bay has to stop focusing his camera on Fox's rack. We all now that, he's not fooling anyone. We all saw.

This movie wasn't as bad as the critics say, but not quite as good as some fans say. It was a fun ride, and while plot was thin, it WAS there despite some scepticism from critics. The twins weren't racist, unless you look at them This movie wasn't as bad as the critics say, but not quite as good as some fans say. It was a fun ride, and while plot was thin, it WAS there despite some scepticism from critics. The twins weren't racist, unless you look at them that way. Plenty of people from several different races talk like them. The sexual innuendos and the language did through it off a little for me. I lost respect from Sideswipe as he announces, "Damn I'm good" while looking a little ballerinaish. If anything, this movie is a great distraction from life, albeit it's very long and hard to sit through 3 times, which I had to do. See it once and decide for yourself.… Expand

Not nearly as bad as the critics make it out to be. Yes, there are lots of loud explosions. Yes, it probably would have benefited from a shorter running time. Yes, Megan Fox's only purpose is to look hot. Yes, there are plot holes and Not nearly as bad as the critics make it out to be. Yes, there are lots of loud explosions. Yes, it probably would have benefited from a shorter running time. Yes, Megan Fox's only purpose is to look hot. Yes, there are plot holes and very bizarre sequences...such as when Jetfire blasts open the side of the Smithsonian Air Museum out by Dulles Airport in NOVA and inexplicably ends up in the boneyard at Davis-Bontham Air Force Base... So what? The movie promises to be louder, bigger, and better than the original and for the most part it delivers. It is funny, dramatic, features battles and effects of epic proportions and only gets slowed down by occasionally pointless subplots (love story) and some ill advised character creations (Skids and Mudflap) But, it delivers what it promises and looks great doing it. Criticizing Michael Bay for making movies with lots of explosions and bad character development is beyond redundant at this point. He has given fans two movies that faithfully deliver awesome transformations, transformers true to their animated counterparts, and a story mirroring and paralleling that of past incarnations. It's a movie released on a large scale with an accompanying large budget that caters to the hardcore fanbase. The fact that it does this, rather than changing things for wider appeal (cough...Xmen)...makes it a movie that people love and critics hate.… Expand

Though it fails in a few key ways, the incredible filmmaking that goes into it, like Bay's great directing skills, make it stand out as oscar-worthy next to pieces of poop like Wolverine or G.I. Joe, by people who can't film action Though it fails in a few key ways, the incredible filmmaking that goes into it, like Bay's great directing skills, make it stand out as oscar-worthy next to pieces of poop like Wolverine or G.I.
