An OK but not particularly good film

Rating: 5/10 (21 June 2009)

The first Transformers was a fun,rather silly action film, which got just about everything right. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the sequel. Bigger does not mean better and in this film everything on screen is bigger but that does not mean better.
The acting is OK and the special effects are very good, but do not feel any more impressive than the first film. Unfortunately the script is rather weak and way to long. The worst part of the film is that it feels like one long advert for the toy line and is all the worst for it.
Overall the film is OK but it should have been much better and for me one of the bigger disappointment in a film which has had a lot of rather average and bad films.
