rise of the ignoramus

Rating: 1/10 (30 June 2009)

OK,
So first the good stuff, (I'm a glass half full kinda guy!!)

Tip of the hat to the CGI geeks who made this movie possible. - The fact that Megan Fox isn't fond of wearing bras. - The popcorn in the movie theater.

The bad,

The fact that the plot made no sense (but what do I know? I'm Egyptian!!) - My little 2 yr old boy shows better acting when he wants attention. - Cameraman's persistence of getting a decent shot of Shia while laying down on his back. (Shia being the big hero who saves mankind from psychopathic robots who want something or the other) - Action scenes that make you dizzy trying to find out who's kicking who's @#$@!!!. - You are only allowed to use the big bad guy %#$! kicking super weapon once in the movie... or else the 2:20 hrs would be down to just 20 mins. - A camaro can generally travel 2000 kms faster than a commercial airplane... and consume less fuel. (environmentally friendly people)

The ugly,

National borders of countries other than the US don't mean squat to the US. - The fact that Michael Bay couldn't find a recent atlas that shows the Earth before Africa and Asia were one continent. - Archeologists don't know the first thing about archeology... and here I thought that the Pyramids and the Petra were wonders of the world built by ancient civilizations (again what do I know?) - The Middle East is just a big pile of sand inhabited with morons. - Black people talk funny. - Women were created for testosterone dumping. - People will generally believe anything you tell them if you divert their attention with enough giant robots, boobs and exploding objects.

In conclusion... Revenge of the fallen has erased any good feelings I had for the first Transformers movie... Call me cheap but I am still crying over the money I spent on this one. Thanks Michael.
