Nowhere near as good as the first

Rating: 6/10 (19 December 2018)

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is nowhere near as good as the first but still an enjoyable sequel. The plot is dumb and ridiculously convoluted and some of the new human characters are pointless. The attempts at humour are awful and it focuses way too much on the human characters. However Shia LaBeouf is still really good and the third act is as ridiculously action packed as you expect from Michael Bay. Michael Bay's direction is especially good in the forest fight, resulting in an excellently filmed and really fun fight that is one of the best action sequences in the entire franchise. Also, Steve Jablonsky's score is great.
