Disappointment... a major disappointment.

Rating: 6/10 (30 June 2009)

Surprisingly i had really high expectations for this movie. I didn't even check IMDb. Which in my case is odd cause I always read comments before going to the cinema. I LOVED the first one, so I just expected Bay to get this as right as Nolan did on The Dark Knight... Silly me.
In movies like this I can usually put up with cheesy clichés, dumb third grade jokes and .... who am i kidding, NO I CANNOT! I cannot believe i went to watch this movie with my girlfriend.
Shia LaBeouf thinks that good acting equals repetitive screaming and stuttering. Megan Fox is unbelievable, literally. The plot is just a big gaping hole. Micheal Bay took the first film, amplified it by 200% and threw the story in the trash. But as long as he gets the cash, I guess it's okay. Every character in the film doesn't have to be a comedian! Particularly a bad and an annoying one (the twins). The story is... well there is no story.
Personally I'm puzzled by the choice to put this film into production. What were they thinking?? Can't they tell good from bad?
Furthermore, if I were an actor that starred in the first Transformers I would never agree to a script like that. I mean I wrote better essays than that in high school. My point is, they screwed up the franchise. I feel sorry for the fans including myself for paying to see this pile of crap.
My suggestion is, if you only want to see big explosions and destruction. Plus you're capable of blocking out all the utter mix of nonsense that this film is, then go and catch it on the big screen. Otherwise save yourself of the disappointment and go buy a six-pack instead.
Edit:
I wrote this while still being angry at Mr. Bay for not making me care about the characters. I'll give it a 6/10. 5 for the mind blowing effects. 1 for the silly little plot.
Bay should stick to effects (which he does best) and let other people worry about the plot. That way we might even get a great movie.
