"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" is far from the worst film I've ever seen, but it may be the most depressing, degrading experience I've ever had at the movies. When I left the theatre, I was outraged. Let me start with... Full review

In Psychology, we would take this movie as a perfect example of what we call "reinforcement". If people like it, make more of it. If no one said anything about it, no need to make it again. So, what did everyone... Full review
Well, I enjoyed it as it happened, but after some reflection...I've come to the understanding that this film is very, VERY messy. A lot of people defending this film are saying the action scenes are spectacular. Sure, they're spectacular...if you like... Full review
Very sad, very bad

Most people before me have said this already. This movie stinks. When I heard that Michael Bay was at the helm of the first Transformers movie, I was very worried but then by some fluke of nature he actually managed to... Full review
Transformers 2 is a full-blown attack on the senses. I left with a massive headache, sore eyes, ringing ears and a sense of disappointment I haven't felt since I finished the last Harry Potter book. I never write reviews on IMDb.com... Full review

I wonder why these amazing technologically advanced critters talk and behave like retards. There wasn't single intelligent line coming from any Transformer. Compared to the robots from Terminator 2 these are idiot-robots. And how come high level government officials are so... Full review
Movie? GM Commercial? Collagen Injection Promo?

By far the worse film I have seen in ages. I felt it was too driven by Chevrolet and GMC product placement (Are there Dodge, Kia, or Volvo transformers? If not, then why?) Similarly, I missed much of Megan Fox's acting... Full review
I don't understand what everyone was expecting.

Why on earth would you expect to see an amazing deep plot in a movie like Transformers? I went to see Transformers 2 to see action, special effects and Megan Fox. Was I disappointed? HELL NOOO. This is probably the most... Full review
A heart-breaking disappointment

The first Transformers completely amazed me, not only by the special effects, but also because the story was surprisingly good and the characters were very likable. So when a second Transformers was announced, following the Hollywood tradition of exploiting every decent... Full review

i loved the first transformers, the acting/humour was superb and the action was AMAZING. I was super anxious for transformers 2 and after about an hr I was anxious to leave. I couldn't take it anymore, everything was stepped up to... Full review

is an exceedingly stupid movie.....Such are the film's unsophisticated pleasures.....To criticize the plot for being aggressively unfocused and convoluted would serve very little purpose....though, scenes like these offer more than enough enjoyment to satisfy the cravings of many an action junkie-granted....you're able to decipher what's going on throughout the unreserved chaos of Michael Bay's shooting style..... ...

The camaro had a funny (and touching) scene at the beginning where it bursted into tears when Shia was leaving for school....The special effects were very well done from my perspective.....the movie did not have a strong story line.... ... Full Review

It's an impressive display of digital effects, but bigger, faster, louder and longer do not necessarily equal better.....Within the first 12 seconds, Bay showcases his gift for masterful wide-screen compositions as he sets up Revenge of the Fallen 's 17,000-year back story..... ... Full Review

, directed by the infamous Michael Bay, is almost emblematic of what is wrong with modern cinema.....If the film had been a work of serious reflection with deep character studies and a fascinating plot this might have been acceptable.....Another of the many problems with the film is the length.....As it is much of the action is confusing and difficult to keep track of..... ...
