I thought it was a great movie, funny, action packed, and a good length not too long and not to short.. I would watch it twice before leaving theatres.

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 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

I've always appreciated Bay's skill to take a so-so script and turn it into something really entertaining: Bad Boys, Transformers but for whatever reason he completely misses the mark and created what may be the worst film I've always appreciated Bay's skill to take a so-so script and turn it into something really entertaining: Bad Boys, Transformers but for whatever reason he completely misses the mark and created what may be the worst film I've ever seen. In a movie that is two and a half hours long that is about fighting robots one would expect to see those robots fight for more than 20 minutes. You get five brief minutes at the beginning, five in the middle (though this scene is without a doubt the best action scene of all time, shame it was in such a bad film...) and then ten jarring minutes at the end. Why would the audience want to see two hours and ten minutes of awful, awful, AWFUL acting where the only interaction with any Transformers are with these really terrible racial stereotypes (I didn't find it offensive or racist it was just weird and really out of place and outdated.) The plot itself had potential and I'll give that it did make sense, but it was everything else that was bad and it took away from the simple plot. This film could have easily been cut to 90 minutes - it spends a good 30 minutes on Fox's and LaBeouf's characters trying to tell each other that they are in love and another 15 on some bizarre Terminator-like Transformer that doesn't fit at all into the plot. I understand that character development and acting aren't the reasons you go see a film like this and that certainly wasn't why I went - but you do go to a film like this for action and when its over 145 minutes it is sorely disappointing that a mere 20 minutes is spent on what the audience came to see - especially because The Fallen doesn't do anything until the last five minutes and the other Transformers (Ironhide;Sideswipe) do nothing and in the last battle its a bunch of Alien Transformers that were not in the film until that point. Its not a bad film because "I don't get it" its a bad film because Michael Bay "didn't get it" choosing a terrible side story that overshadowed and dominated the main plot and underused the very things the film is named for...but hey, had this film just been the 20 minutes of fighting robots with none of the terrible filler I'd of probably given it a 10... Just one last thing- Oddly enough I didn't find the film loud at all and I saw it in IMAX - it was strangely quiet...so I don't know where the critics got that it was loud from...… Expand

I see a lot of reviews and hear a lot of people stating that Transformers 2 has a very incoherent plot and is loud and tedious. i have to disagree immensely. The movie has its kinks, i will admit, but the plot as a whole makes perfect sense: I see a lot of reviews and hear a lot of people stating that Transformers 2 has a very incoherent plot and is loud and tedious. i have to disagree immensely. The movie has its kinks, i will admit, but the plot as a whole makes perfect sense: Decepticons need Energon. How? Earth's sun. If people want more than that, they will be disappointed. In my views, if the sun were about to be destroyed by evil alien robots, I believe there would be some destruction caused by fighting robots to either destroy or defend. Although plot holes were there, the plot itself made enough sense to create an epic feel that Bay seems to do very well in his films. The characters including the Bots were very developed, and developed well. Sam and Mikaela's relationship was shown to be vulnerable, yet it was easily known that they loved each other. I see criticism over Megan Fox's introduction scene as being too sexual. I again disagree, because her tone of voice and the background Green Day song gave an innocent outlook on her. I not once paid more attention to the sexuality, as i found her scene to be very sweet in tone. Shia Labeouf is a good actor. Not much more i can say about him. Optimus and Starscream were my favorite Bots. Optimus' leadership was exemplified a lot throughout the film, up till that one moment in which he....... spoilers. well, in all he is just a great character. Starscream's personality and how he acted was incredible. He was loyal , yet only by fear it seemed like. His actions with Megatron displayed how he is as a character, which is a cowardly right wing. Very well done on his part. Then there comes the issue over Skids and Mudflap. I watched their parts, and not once did i compare their actions to "black" people. They were funny, cuz they had personality. Racism exists nowadays only because we all pay attention to what racism is after MLK wanted to get rid of it. If people watched the characters for what they were, I am sure that they would enjoy their flamboyant and obnoxious personalities. The action sequences are perfection. None are too short, or too long. They are all gripping, and for me had me fidgeting in my seat. There is one particular scene in which Optimus fights Megatron, starscream, and Grindor in a forest which had me smiling and fidgeting; i never do that in a movie. It was easily the best action sequence I have ever seen. Michael Bay made a very decent movie. Not perfect, but Bay managed to create the ultimate summer blockbuster movie which people would not waste their money on. I happen to be one of the few who feel the movie was not long enough fyi.… Expand

Alright so I saw the first one, it was pretty good. I actually wanted to see Public Enemies when I saw this but it was the premiere and was too alzy to wait till midnight, anyways I saw Transformers 2. it was.... okay The first half an hour Alright so I saw the first one, it was pretty good. I actually wanted to see Public Enemies when I saw this but it was the premiere and was too alzy to wait till midnight, anyways I saw Transformers 2. it was.... okay The first half an hour was great, re-introducing all the characters, was pretty funny, main guy goes to college, introduced to these other guys, sam and Megans character (cant remember her character name) had the whole relationships thing still going and it was interesting. Now for me these are the main points which ruin this movie: 1. NO character development, at all. When I started watching it I was like, who's this commander guy? He hasn't even been introduced, then I remembered he was from the first one, it automatically assumes you remember straight away and it shows how unforgettable each character is as I couldn't even remember them! 2. the story, it was pretty lame.. was boring to be honest, when Optimus died, it just left us with lame-ass characters, bumblebee doesn't talk.. and those twins are not funny, at all. There just annoying, and you don't even care about them. There were also some other robots that envr got introduced like these motorbike ones or something which seems pretty badass, but they were never introduced!!! And when they were in it they said one line and died. 3. Editing. Editing was bad, jump cuts all over the place, even the rorobt fights felt.... forced, it was all really close up at points and no variety 4. Stupidity. So many plot holes... don't even get me started on the ending.. why didn't Optimus turn AROUND AFTER defeating the big guy and just kill Megatron?... I mean.. what the hell? Optimus kills him the big guy, it shows Megatrons aying ill be back and walks off and cuts to optimus walking back to the humans.... but Megatron was directly behind Optimus.... HELLOOOO? whatever it's not even worth thinking about. anyways I give it a 4 for the Cg effects as it was pretty cool, ws some cool camera work at times and the acting was pretty good but it feels very empty,. and is wayyy longer than it should've been worth a watch if it's on tv in the future but I wouldn't recommend paying to see this.… Expand

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...

This was one of my most anticipated films of the year. After seeing the first film, I thought it was pretty good and thought Transformers could be a vehicle to deliver what I want in a film, which is action with deep meaning. When this film This was one of my most anticipated films of the year. After seeing the first film, I thought it was pretty good and thought Transformers could be a vehicle to deliver what I want in a film, which is action with deep meaning. When this film came out, I checked out reviews and my expectations of the film started to drop. Anyway, I went all over the place, and the "Transformers" movie was despised by everyone. This scared me. I went to Netflix and looked at the reviews from normal people, and they said it was good. Yet, the parental guide rating given from Netflix seemed sarcastic in why they gave it a strong PG-13, which means the reviewers probably hated the film, too. So, I went to see the film in IMAX (and I forgot my earplugs, which made it suck in the sound aspect.) This film was a total disappointment. The story was incoherent, the characters were terrible, human and robot alike, and their was no philosophical ideas. The biggest question I had was why did the Fallen have a vendetta against mankind if the last time he came here, it was 17,000 B.C. and our species obviously could do nothing to him? Or is he plain lazy and doesn't want to go searching again to another planet to find another star-destroyer thing? I felt offended from watching the two robots, Mudflap and Skid, considering no matter what other people say, they are definitely caricatures (don't blame the script writers, they didn't want them in the film originally.) I felt they were put in for this reason (I'm into crazy conspiracies, but this might have some relevance): some person at GM wanted to show off their new cars, and the old white guys who own the company said "how can I make this product appear cool to younger people"? Then they thought, "Oh, what about that stuff called rap music? It's done by black people, right?" So, they took their uncool representation of a black person, and tried to sell off the cars as bling. Absolutely stupid. When one of them gets sucked up by the Devastator Constructicon, I wanted him to die, not break free. The characterization is just plain horrible. No chemistry between Sam and Mikaela, and everyone delivers one liners and cliches. What idiot wrote this script? There is no character development, and for a two and a half hour film, that is pathetic. Michael Bay is also bad at romance scenes in every film he does. I mean, it shouldn't be his fault, but for God sakes, why can't his writers put something good in? Other problems are the racial stereotyping, the objectification of women (which I find particularly disgraceful), and simple stupidity of the characters. Another thing, instead of finding Optimus Prime cool like I did in the first one, he came off as annoying. I wanted to yell at him "Shut up, you are making yourself look stupid, not wise!" I mean, rip something out of Ecclesiastes if you want archaic wise, not the dribble they told Peter Cullen to say. As for cinematography, this movie is a mixed bag. Sometimes it was good, the one scene which I thought was really nice was towards the end during the fighting when they take a really long, slo-mo shot of the action. I'm a fan of long, creative shots, and this one pulled it off. But, often times, the visual direction was so jumbled I didn't have a good idea of what was on screen. I could tell who was there, but not what they were really doing. I can make more sense out of karate fighting than this. And lastly, and second most importantly, the message. This film has none. Yes, I said it, none. Optimus Prime and the Autobots are fighting for peace, but so much stuff gets destroyed and so many robots die that it seems they might rather just kill each other than actually have peace. I mean, they are created with huge guns on their arms, what else are they there for, picnics in daisy fields? This isn't a good battle between the forces of holy and demonic, it's just stuff blowing up. As for humanity, it says nothing. We want to continue living, so obviously we are going to kill giant evil robots. This isn't thought-provoking, its fight-or-flight syndrome. From this aspect alone, I don't know how people can find this film to be above average. I've often been criticized for looking too deeply into many works, including all forms of art from literature to music, and that I do not know how to enjoy whatever medium it is. Well, I'm not going to listen to bad techno/pop/Top 40 music just because chicks dig it, and I'm not going to like a film just because stuff blows up. Yet, from all of this, I still find the film to be slightly below average. I gave it 3 stars on Netflix, and in a 0 to 10 system (which is my favorite and with 7 being average,) I'd say a 6.5. It did half of what I came to the movie for, which was action. The other half, which is characterization, meaning, and good plot, were thrown on the wayside. Was I entertained? Not really. When my first question of "Why?" breaks up a film, it loses all of its potential.… Expand

Michael will always be a great action-film director, but this time he really abused of close-ups to the robots, sometimes you cant really understand whats happening until at last you see a dead robot fall. He also left real acting for the twin robot wich at the end of the film you did not end up on really caring about them. As for the real life human actors, the plot itself cuts them out, they dont do anything more than scream, or pose in the case of Megan. I have to say i do went to see this movie because i liked the first one a lot, other reason was because of Megan. I do love her she is so hot, but that doesn't quit her of being the bad actrees she is, and also the stupidity that lies in his head an in his voice. Anyone who has seen "How to loose friends and Alienate people" would understand my point, what i mean is, she was so stupid to take the role in that movie of a moviestar that lacks of talent but has sex-appeal.

I won't get all long-winded but basically it comes down to Look I'm a huge Transformers fan and I loved the first movie. The second movie was actually better in a few ways and significantly worse in other ways that the first one. I won't get all long-winded but basically it comes down to this. It's good that there were more robots and the action scenes were actually pretty impressive. The thing is there were actually TOO many action scenes near the end and it really just kinda got numbing. I actually thought the story made perfect sense. It actually seemed like something that would be in one of the cartoon episodes, for better or worse. But the human parts were just horribly done for the most part. Everyone did a decent job acting, especially Shia, except for Megan Fox. God she cannot act. I'm sorry, for all her good looks, she just can't. The score also seemed less inspired, but maybe it's just because the action was so loud without any sense of dynamic. Still, I enjoyed it enough. Nostalgia played a big factor and I realize it's actually even barely a "good" movie, but it was fun and I'll probably enjoy watching it at home. It think the people bashing it and many posters here are really exaggerating its negative aspects. Which is sad, because it's not an awful movie, it's definitely flawed, but it's still satisfying to me. I can get my high art elsewhere but sometimes I just wanna see some pyrotechnics. Finally, all you all who are saying that the twins are racist need to get a clue. They were imitating urban street slang and emulating styles they downloaded from the Web, as goes the plotline of how TFers learn to speak. If you think that the way they're talking is talking "black" or that they are "blackface robots" as others have mentioned here, then I think that says more about your views about race than the film's intentions. One of the voice actors was black and the other was the guy who voices SpongeBob. And THEY came up with their approach for the characters, NOT Bay. And those are the facts (not something that is often given much value on the Web these days...).… Expand

If that's all you go in As soon as the credits rolled on this spectacle, I said to myself, "Well, they sure did blow a lot of [stuff] up." There's nothing wrong with that and it's entirely what I expected from this movie. If that's all you go in expecting, you should enjoy it. On the other hand, if you're hoping for a salient plot and interesting characters to go along with your sci fi and explosions, you'll be disappointed. Terminator 2 it's not. The movie powers it's way through one of the least cohesive scripts imaginable, replete with two-dimensional cliché characters and nonsensical dialog. Throughout the whole debacle, the production team repeatedly tries to to write itself out of the corners they've painted themselves into, as if nobody had any idea where the storyline was going before they started writing. New characters and explanations are thrown in as late as 10 minutes before the climactic ending. Directing a movie like this is really more about directing the effects department than anything. On that front, my only complaint is that occasionally the transformers are shot so close when fighting each other that it's hard to tell what's happening and to whom. I'm not sure it's even fair to judge a project like this using traditional standards like writing and directing, but if you do, it's dismal. Overall, I'd give it a 2, but for the genre it's a 6, so I'm calling it a 4.… Expand

Do you really You have to know what you're about to see when you watch a movie from a critical standpoint. So, when you go to see Transformers, please don't expect deep, thoughtful dialog nor a perfectly planned and executed plot. Do you really expect those from a movie called "Transformers"? What you should expect, and what I expected, was some cheesy dialog, a disposable plot, and some awesome action scenes you won't see in any other movie. The scale of the Transformers was absolutely huge, and the moments(abundant, I might add) where there's a ton of action on screen make you sit back and think, simply, "Awesome!" Definitely a sight to behold on the Imax screen where I saw it. So really, this movie accomplishes what it's trying to do. Go in with an open mind, let the plot breeze by, and enjoy the fact you don't have to put much effort into enjoying this summer action movie.… Expand

If I had to explain this movie in one word I guess it would be....jawdropalicious. There are mixed reviews for this movie and thats because of all the 29 yr olds still reading their comics in mommy's basement who think the movie changed If I had to explain this movie in one word I guess it would be....jawdropalicious. There are mixed reviews for this movie and thats because of all the 29 yr olds still reading their comics in mommy's basement who think the movie changed a few things. Well answer me this: would you want to watch a movie that you know exactly what is going to happen? My favorite movie possibly of all time with not one thing I would change. Don't ask me though, go see it for yourself. It is a must see on the big screen.… Expand

Apart from the outstanding special effects, this film was very average. It was overlong, unstructured, and on the whole, a exploding noisefest.

Didn't exactly hate it. Some holes in the plot. Action was incredible. Length of the movie became a issue.

The critics are being too critical of a fun movie about robots! Come on let people sit back relax and enjoy a bad ass sci fi spectacle!

I give it 5 for special effects. I'm not sure who is the demographic for this picture. Clearly the major appeal will be to teenagers and preteens but the language and Megan Fox crotch-shots pretty much eliminate any kids under 12. As an I give it 5 for special effects.

This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The script was horrible, so was the acting. But above all the special effects were outright TERRIBLE!!!!!!

Its funny, most critics panned this film but what we must all remember is that they don't matter. I don't mean that in a bad way. its just that take into account cinematography, how good the actors were, all that stuff, and its Its funny, most critics panned this film but what we must all remember is that they don't matter. I don't mean that in a bad way. its just that take into account cinematography, how good the actors were, all that stuff, and its still a personal opinion i.e. "How was this film to me" therefore it doesn't matter what these critics have to say. We didn't elect them, we didn't get to decide who they are. They just decided to do this job (and then worked towards it, not saying you can just decide to be a critic one day). That's why all these audience surveys have been counter to what the critics have been saying. I enjoyed the film. I though it was enjoyable funny and all round good and apparently so did most of the people who saw it. In the end that's whats important with rating a film.… Expand

It was a spectacle, something that stimulated every sense. I couldn't have asked for anything more with second installment!
