As the comic geniuses who worked on Team America: World Police once sang, "Why does Michael Bay get to keep on making movies?". Enough said.

Bay's hammer crushing a rusty nail into creativity's coffin yet again. Mr. Bay sucks the heart and soul out of every idea he touches and reduces it to a frigid, skeletal advertising platform.

Did not like. Megan Fox and Shia LeBeouf are poor actors, and Michael Boy is a poor director. Awful storyline and acting does not make up for the insane CGI and special effects in the movie. Damn you, Bay.

Only downfall was a bit more cursing, which makes it questionable for young children, but just fine for teenagers and adults.… Expand

Thank you, Michale Bay for not ruining one of my favorite storys. He dose such a good job, that I couldn't help but be disappointed by "Dragonball Evolution". A horrible attempt at bringing an excellent story to the live action universe. I am planning to see Transfomers 2 again, very soon. Loved it!!!… Expand

The only redeeming qualities are the special effects and the likenesses of the Transformers. ****SPOILER P.S. To give you an idea of just how horrific it is: the movie features three separate scenes of small animals and even a transformer humping legs, midget humor, several instances of testicle jokes, and Devestator has visible testicles. In addition, one of the new additions to the Autobot family are a set of twin robots that, as near as I can tell, are either racist portrayals of black-face actors or a satire of the mentally handicapped. Yes, it is that bad.… Expand

I've read an interview with Michael Bay yesterday in which he said, that he makes movies for teenagers and that he has no problem with that. If movies aimed at a teenage crowd are all about a weak plot including huge plot holes, I've read an interview with Michael Bay yesterday in which he said, that he makes movies for teenagers and that he has no problem with that. If movies aimed at a teenage crowd are all about a weak plot including huge plot holes, superficial character development, jackass-class silly jokes, bad storytelling and absolutely mindblowing, over-the-edge eye and ear candy, then yes, Mr. Bay surely lives up to that. I mean, come on, who does expect something else than that when watching a Bay movie? Anyone who enters the cinema with the expectation to see a sophisticated movie will be disappointed. But those who want to see the new standard in visual-overkill-action-movies won't be disappointed. Yet I am disappointed. Why? Because as a sequel, it means more of...well...everything, but sadly, the balance shifted to the wrong side. The movie is called Transformers 2, so it should be a movie ABOUT the Transformers, about their characters and their relationships, their history and development, but in this movie they sometimes only seem like some kind of sidekick to me. Yes, there are more robots, more fights, more explosions, but also more unnecessary "human dramas", bad jokes, really, really cheesy moments, totally weak and annoying characters (even worse than Jar Jar Binks) and the balance shifted so much, that the annoying parts are weighing over. I'll watch the 3rd movie for sure, but in the end, there will not be many memorable things about the movie, except huge, HUGE, humongously H-U-G-E explosions and insane eyecandy. That includes Megan Fox. Giant robots, explosions and Megan Fox in the same movie has to be at least a "5". That should tell you how bad the rest is :)… Expand

If you go to see Transformers for an amazing plot and a great character arc, then you'll be fairly disappointed with both of Michael Bay's installments.

But if you are coming to see some cutting edge special effects mixed in with fun and exciting action sequences, then you'll find Revenge of the Fallen to be a summer-blockbuster winner. While the film doesn't seem to excite from the get go, it eventually fires on all cylinders, reminding people why they'd pay $9.50 to see a movie at midnight: because it's just that cool. The only problem is you came to the movies expecting an epic adventure that you found in the first film, but with expectations soaring high, it kind of makes the experience less exhilerating. Bay doesn't shell out many surprises, but with the massive success of the first film, it's a little surprising that there's enough here to warrant a fair grade and, for some, a second viewing. We can all hope that with a third round of robot action, Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg will find a way to reignite this series for a spectacular grand finale.… Expand

Loud, Spectacular, Dumb and Fun - everything I wanted from a Summer Blockbuster. People need to get a grip and stop bitching that a Michael Bay film is too loud and too over the top - it's what he does and what he does well!

Somehow, Micheal Bay managed to ruin the major draw he had in this movie (Megan Fox being really hot) by making sure the camera never lingered on her long enough to really satisfy those of us who care. Sadly, for those of us interested in Somehow, Micheal Bay managed to ruin the major draw he had in this movie (Megan Fox being really hot) by making sure the camera never lingered on her long enough to really satisfy those of us who care. Sadly, for those of us interested in fighting robots, he applied the same theory. Most of the scenes in this film, actually, include some sort of obstruction to the shot. This technique, while admirable for plot based art films, does little for the vapid appeal that makes Micheal Bay films all this money.… Expand

I actually would have to rate this an 8.5, but im going 10 because of the people voting this down. This was a fantastic movie, very epic, with some of the best CGI to date. the plot was surprisingly good. a couple qualms I have with it, are I actually would have to rate this an 8.5, but im going 10 because of the people voting this down. This was a fantastic movie, very epic, with some of the best CGI to date. the plot was surprisingly good. a couple qualms I have with it, are the fact that they didn't actually develop and of the new transformers, or have any of the existing ones like Ironhide do a whole lot (other than fight), meaning they didn't have plot purpose, I wish they fit them in better (both new and already existing). ***slight spoiler***, Blackout and a couple others that are assumed dead in the first are alive in the 2nd... I guess we just have to assume they were revived. Ending leaves it open for another which is always good. Overall, the movie had a lot of funny parts to it surprisingly. Action is great, although there are a couple segments that are slow and tend to drag on, but its tolerable. Defiantly a must see and must buy when it goes to dvd/blu-ray. I do believe the first film was slightly better, but this film was still great plan and simple. Its a great film to simply just enjoy and laugh, cry (there actually are some pretty intense emotional scenes), and be on the edge of your seat in anticipation. I plan to see again as soon as possible.… Expand

Can somebody please tell me where the Michael Bay off switch is located?

I didn't understand the plot, but that's only because it was so badly told and the characters were nothing more than poorly written stereotypes and window dressing. I want to see a movie about giant robots, I don't care about goofball college kids, hot chicks, school boy soldiers and racist mini bots. Transformers 3 should either not be made at all or be given to a director with more than one trick up his sleeve.… Expand

The only indicator i had that the movie was a long one was my backside going numb from sitting in one spot for too long in a worn out movie cinema seat. Can't wait until the next one comes out!!!… Expand

A very intriguing sequel to the first hit film. Some will complain that the action is overbearing, but they severely overstate the intensity.

Boring, too long, too loud, too much BAY! Someone please tell Speilberg to drop this guy, I was under the impression Speilberg was a story teller, but Michael Bay has no clue how to tell a story. Worst film of the year and racist with it.

But not a whole lot. These awful reviews are killing me. Transformers is meant to be FUN, and I could not have had a better time at Revenge of the Fallen. The explosions, transformations, and fight sequences are top notch. And Shia Labeouf takes himself seriously, giving a legitimate performance. The complaints I've heard are that there's no soul or heart to this film, and it's just not true. The battles are amazing, but there's plenty of emotional moments in there as well. This is easily as good as the first film.… Expand

Transformers 2 is not as serious as the first, and being as the first wasn't very serious, well that says a lot! However I really enjoyed this movie, its the first time in a while that iv'e been in a Cinema where the audience have Transformers 2 is not as serious as the first, and being as the first wasn't very serious, well that says a lot! However I really enjoyed this movie, its the first time in a while that iv'e been in a Cinema where the audience have all started applauding at a great joke/scene. It has some terrible scenes, but it also has some superb ones, and overall its a fun film. Go see it if you want a fun, cheesy, un-serious action flick. Don't expect in-depth story lines or a life changing film, just go for a laugh and you will enjoy it!… Expand

It was amazingly action packed and I cannot get enough of Megan Fox! Except for Shia, the acting was horrendous but that was expected. The 1 hour climax scene was a little bit annoying, but all in all I had fun.

What is wrong with the critics in todays society?! I realize movies like this may not be their favorite, but they should take into consideration all the work that goes into a movie like this rather than if their cynical selves enjoyed it. TheWhat is wrong with the critics in todays society?! I realize movies like this may not be their favorite, but they should take into consideration all the work that goes into a movie like this rather than if their cynical selves enjoyed it. The funny thing about critics is that they always have biased reviews based on a single thing they dislike and then it sways their opinion and in turn outweighs the movie as a whole. They should appreciate the talent required to make a movie like this. This movie got an average that was one ppoint higher than Dance Flick.... Are you kidding me. I got back from the midnight showing a little bit ago and it was phenomenal..... Don't listen to the critcs. They will all go to hell with the sound of their voices.… Expand
