just bad

Rating: 2/10 (3 July 2009)

So this movie was really quite awful. To sum it up, it's basically a movie that is about an hour and a half too long, consisting of one loud fight scene with robots after another. The only purpose of the actors in this film is to run, scream, hide, oh and look good doing it (Megan Fox looks the best.) After about an hour of viewing, the plot is full of holes, and your brain becomes numb after the non stop action scenes. The humor (or lack there of) in the film, is mainly inappropriate e.g. the two robots that are obvious black stereotypes that can't read and the mother buying a pot brownies. I found it to be rather annoying.
However, the special effects are in fact superb and the robots do look pretty darn cool, but they aren't enough to save the film. It seems like Michael Bey wanted to see just how much stuff he could blow up with the huge budget he was given. Overall, i was extremely disappointed and found myself saying, " Thank God that's over," when the credits started to roll.
