Could have been sooo much better

Rating: 2/10 (26 June 2009)

This movie sucked. I really liked the first movie, although it had its flaws, like shaky camera and that a lot of the robots looked too much alike. Some of the humor was bad, the transformers themselves had to little character.
And what happened in part 2? All those things just got waaaaaay worse. And I mean REALLY worse. Instead of writing a wall of text I'll just give some examples. (Here be spoilers) 1. A decepticon transforms into a human woman, yeah right. Terminatrix inc.
2. A little tamagotchi decepticon switches sides because Megan Fox smiles at it, and later humps Michaelas leg. (Nope, not making this up) 3. As much plot holes as Star Trek 10 (If this doesn't bother you, my review won't mean much to you, and no, I'm not exaggerating).
4. Every good character that dies is later resurrected.
5. Action sequences show too much random explosions and slow-motion shots of people /stuff flying around, instead of tense real time fighting between cool DIFFERENT LOOKING bad-ass robots. If you want a good example of a nice fight scene I like, take the one between Leonardo and Raphael from the latest TMNT movie. I didn't like the movie too much, but that scene was awesome. The action in this movie is nothing like it, the camera is way too shaky, too close, you never(OK most of the time anyway) know what's happening to whom.
6. Badass Devastator decepticon can't kill two very very small autobots, is too clumsy / big to reach the top of the pyramid, gets one-shotted by a gunship (which could just as easily destroy the pyramid as well, thus saving the sun from exploding. But that would make the fight shorter, and Michael Bay loves explosions) 7. If all that has not convinced you not to see the movie, maybe the two stereotyped annoying Jar Jar Binks robots with more screen time than Optimus will, although even that might not be enough for you, if you still consider watching it (which scares me). Seriously who the hell had the idea to introduce not one, but TWO Jar Jar Binks aka Franchise Killers into the movie? 8. The humor is terrible. So much characters and scenes are ridiculed by bad sex jokes.
9. This movie is a face-palm flatrate.
