I Haven't Walked Out of a Movie Since Naked Gun 33 1/3

Rating: 1/10 (26 June 2009)

I haven't walked out of a movie since Naked Gun 33 1/3. The unnecessary Turturo thong shot was bad but what did it for me was the 20 minutes of dialog/exposition about 90 minutes in. This movie should have been over in 90 minutes, not dumping a truckload of background on you that a competent movie would have already worked in by then.
You don't go to a Transformers movie expecting Shakespeare. The first one was no Chekhov play but it had something resembling a plot and some consistency of character. Now, Decepticons are defecting. Megan Fox is taming a Decepticon? The leg humping scene was cringe inducing. And Megatron has a master, that he just forgot to bring up before? I love mindless summer action films and enjoyed the first Transformers movie, over-the-top voice overs aside. But even Michael Bay should be ashamed of this.
