Great visuals ruined by bad directing and cheesy acting

Rating: 7/10 (15 March 2010)

What a sad result for such great visuals. I hereby congratulate Michael Bay for his great achievement of ruining this movie since it really requires some talent. Lets start with the actor selection. The only difference between lumber and Shia LaBeouf is Shia LaBeouf can talk. Given this fact, I really don't see any reason for his existence on this (or any other) movie. I mean it, this guy has no talent at all, he doesn't have an attractive physic or anything that can justify his presence in a movie. Also, the female characters made the plot more cheesy and they were totally unnecessary. Lets put some sexy girls and silly jokes to make a teenage movie. Unfortunately it doesn't work like that. I have never seen a classical movie with cheesy plot. Especially in sci-fi, this cheap tricks are just ruining the movie. I don't want to hear a stupid joke when there is an action packed fight scene. If you want to make a remarkable movie, you should be serious (I prescribe the director some James Cameron movies so that he may see how sci-fi is done). The last battle was really great in terms of visuals but overall, there is plenty of room for improvement. It is so sad that the third one will be done by the same director.
