Don't ignore the negative reviews!!

Rating: 2/10 (27 June 2009)

Yes, we all love to bash Michael Bay. But perhaps there's a reason for that...THE MAN MAKES CRAPPY MOVIES!!
And this is a prime example of his screwed up mind crapping out an abomination to please the idiotic masses of the world. Listen...I'm not a film snob. I enjoy explosions as much as the next man, but this is ridiculous. Do people who clap when the gold-toothed, simian-faced robot, speaks "ghetto" not realize how insulting it is? I mean, is this the level of audiences today? Must be, because how else can this movie make record-breaking numbers at the box office?
I'm serious here...What the hell is wrong with you, people? Okay, the VFX are great. Now that we have that out of the way...
The plot. Okay, seriously, someone playing with Transformer toys at home could probably come up with something better. The acting. Yes, give Megan Fox the Oscar. The characters. I get it that the movie doesn't take itself too seriously, but when such caricatures are put in dramatic situations...you just can't give a crap. Just kill them all, please, starting with the mother. The action. Well, it's not as ADD as the first one, but there's no real excitement. It's a few big, gray blobs of metal, hitting each other. Hooray!
And why the hell is this crap 2 and a half hours long? Why is the college part of the film even there? Why are the parents there? Why is the roommate there? If you're gonna make a piece of crap, at least make a short piece of crap.
