The plot-holes Bay makes leaves much bigger craters than his explosions.

Rating: 1/10 (26 June 2009)

Michael Bay was so fittingly named the 'true Decepticon' by Rolling Stone critic Peter Travers, he truly ruins everything that anybody anywhere could ever truly like about this whole franchise; he makes Shia LeBeouf into this adventurer that didn't remind me anything of the character of the first movie, Megan Fox is sun bathed into becoming a underused but still terrible character, the robots are becoming less and less mechanical and more and more organic, the action scenes are a whole lot of mess, the sidekicks (whether it's the new twin-robots, John Turturro or nerdy schoolmate Leo Spitz (Ramon Rodriguez)) are all instruction manuals to creating horrible characters with perfectly timed unfunny lines - I could go on forever about this.
I found out more interesting things about my teeth during this watch than whatever Bay could throw at me on screen. It's exhausting duration-time does not help out when there's really no climax to appear, scene after scene after scene Bay tries topping himself with explosions, shiny cars, "funny" one-liners, robot-fights where it's impossible to tell who's fighting who, an outrageously bad love story and a dooming story that uses bogus words to get out of a clamp. And for that matter, director Bay doesn't seem all that interesting in story, he is far more interesting in going out on the highway (again!) and making those wheels screech, or loading-up military weapons with our men Josh Duhamel and Tyrese; the plot-holes he makes leaves much bigger craters than his explosions.
Using this kind of budget, and having so many ideas to pull from, we're left with what may just be the worst sequel of all time. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen does not manage to make one good scene; that's what I call a horrible mess.
