A senseless mix of genres

Rating: 4/10 (21 June 2009)

I've just left the movie theater so my impressions are as hot as possible. And I must confess that I have quite bad impressions even though I liked the first movie a lot.
It has to be noticed that this film has become a medley of cinema genres containing comedy, drama, lyrics, love story but this heterogeneous mixture conceals a primary genre. I've got a feeling that this film creators tried to appeal to preferences of every audience, but in the end they just torn the movie apart. I was shocked by the awful quality of the plot - but it's better to say I was shocked by a big number of sheer plot holes. Even though in the first installment of the Transformers the plot was quite coherent, logical and consistent, in the second film you see an event and a moment later, that past event is completely forgotten as if it hasn't happened and has no consequences.
BTW, about a genres medley. In the second movie the authors for no obvious reasons other than visual attraction borrowed plot findings of .. Terminator 3 and Jumper. Yes, these Transformers include a hyper-sexual woman out of Terminator 3 and space jumps out of Jumper. Alas, this teleportation wiped out the remains of reality.
Oh, I've forgotten to mention that the Transformers 2 sneezed the plot of the first Martix movie, where Mr. Keanu Reeves resurrected after his own death (even though that death was semi-realistic and virtual). Alas, the creators of the second Transformers turned the movie into a pure fantasy - after Samuel Witwicky dies, he promptly reanimates having talked to some robotic Gods. BTW, you'll be presented with pre-historic times and pre-historic .. Transformers Gods.
Proceeding with the topic of plot inconsistency and destroying the remains of reality, it has to be noticed that hostile robots having the advantage in a number and power, became kinda softies and couldn't defeat usual tanks and infantrymen with submachine guns (and a tiny group of friendly robots).
This film still has the ultimate goof of the first movie - to be exact in different scenes the same robots have different sizes. Also, there's an awful modish element of almost all modern movies when rapidly changing scenes are shot (shown) using a shaky closely positioned camera.
Having all its beauty and insanely expensive CGI (special effects), this film remained for me an insipid and senseless glitch.
