Even the CGI Can't Save This One

Rating: 1/10 (29 May 2008)

Maybe it was the forgettable soldiers in the beginning, spouting "speak English, Mexican" type lines which turned me off from this explosion-fest. Megan Fox, protégé to the Jennifer Connelly School of Dull Acting, could have been a major factor in my dislike of this movie as well. This, of course, would come into conflict with her acting credentials of breasts, a revealing shirt and close-ups of said-breasts. Perhaps it was the pretentious score attempting to be poignant or sound like "Batman Begins." The stereotypical voice of Transformer "Jazz" could have provided ample reason for my utter dislike of this "blockbuster." However, I feel that a line like "Stop, or we will kill you" best sums up my apprehension towards movies attempting to be more than meets the eye while utterly failing in the process.
