Can it get any dumber than this?

Rating: 3/10 (26 July 2009)

While the first movie was overall fun to watch, this sequel feels rushed and dumb, even cheap at times. The CGI effects are way too obvious and distracting, the humor is simply dumb and even bad-taste with the exception of a few smarter moments. The plot is totally predictable and the new introduced characters were obviously created for kids under the age of not 12 but 10 at best. This is one of the finest example of Hollywood-style cash-cow milking. Michael Bay didn't care about the final product, he just counted on the money to flow in, otherwise I can't explain how someone can come up with such a lame sequel after the initial spectacular and fun movie. There's nothing memorable here. Nothing! The final battle was overlong and pointless, and the Robot-Heaven scene really had at least half of the audience laughing hysterically, which obviously wasn't the director's original intention. Oh, and let's not forget the female robot-seductress, with a human tongue on her tail! Yes, literally! Bottom line: it can't get any more commercial than this. Give it a rent, at best. While I own the first movie on Blu-Ray, I'd never spend my money on this worthless sequel.
