Leave Your Brains At The Door

Rating: 6/10 (6 July 2009)

If you're looking for a movie that makes you think, or challenges you, don't see Transformers 2. It's a self acknowledged all-out effects movie, and gives little of its time over to plot or character development. What it does have is spectacle, excitement and appeals to the kid in all of us. Explosions, robots, Megan Fox, this movie was never going to be Citizen Kane and it knows it. But if you want two hours of epic dog fights, buildings getting levelled and Megan Fox straddling a motorcycle you'll have a great time, anyone who criticises it for it's lack of plot is asking a little too much from the transforming alien robot genre (and Michael Bay of course)
