Predictable, ridiculous...

Rating: 2/10 (23 July 2008)

I liked Transformers and that's why this movie disappointed even more.
It's just ridiculous. There are only two good things about this movie. Shia LaBeouf's performance because he's an amazing young actor (as you can see in Disturbia much better than in this movie) and the special effects. Oh, don't get me wrong the fighting scenes are well made. The transformers look great. But it's so predictable! Even the fighting scenes are predictable. I knew exactly when Optimus Prime was going to appear, when he or Bumblebee were going to save Sam and when Megatron would attack; because it was too obvious! The romance was ridiculous, after all she was his classmate and never noticed him, but hey, since she needed a ride, why not hook up with the guy with the car? Please... I found it offensive, because it represented male chauvinism.
I'm sorry to those who don't agree with me, but I can't say it's worth seeing, except for its especial effects and LaBeouf's performance, the rest of the movie is just bad. If you want to see a good mecha action movie this is not it.
