$200,000,000 of explosions, robots and a beautiful girl does not guarantee a good film...

Rating: 1/10 (2 July 2009)

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
Transformers 2, falls short of its predecessor, despite more action, more robots, more slow motion, unrelenting explosions and all that signature Michael Bay stuff. While Transformers 1 was thoroughly entertaining, this one, is overdrawn, even dumber, too loud and times boring. While it manages a number of decent scenes and some funny ones as well, this film is really quite poor overall. However it does not matter at all what I say here, because the film will be a huge box office success and very likely a sequel will be spawned.
Despite a huge budget, the final sequences of the film, supposedly taking place on the outskirts of Cairo in Egypt in a dusty area, it looks as fake and cheap as anything. In fact I am quite sure that the sets there were the same used in the beginning of the first one!
