Good in its own right, but not better than the original.

Rating: 6/10 (12 May 2019)

As with any sequel, it is expected to be bigger and better than the first film. 'Transformers 2' offers much more on action and CGI. Although it was maybe a bit too CGI-heavy, it goes with the territory considering the nature of the film, and was still thrilling to watch.
The impressive action-packed opening sequence set the standard for what was to come. Once again, the visuals are incredible. The story continues as the Decepticons learn of a shard of the Allspark Cube remaining still, and they'll do anything to get it. Naturally, chaos and mayhem follow as the Decepticons destroys much of the cities around the world. And boy, Michael Bay does enjoy destroying things!!
Most of the original cast is back to reprise there roles, which I enjoyed. It was not as suspenseful as the original, as this film has a lot more humor. The Transformer twins were just stupid as the comic relief characters and it would have been so much better without them. The library scene was really great, and the desert attack scene in Egypt was simply awesome! The action is insane! I must be honest, though, I enjoyed the first film much more.
