This is what a summer movie is all about!

Rating: 8/10 (24 June 2009)

Transformers 2 is what a summer movie is all about : big, loud and above all, a sumptuous feast for the senses! For those who whine about the plot (or lack of) and acting, you should stay at home and watch Turner Classics.
This is everything one can ask for and more. The production team has done just about everything to satisfy the hard-core Transformer faithful and the lay followers of the story.
My only gripe is the relatively quick and cheap destruction of Devastator and The Fallen. Isn't Devastor one of the biggest meanest SOB-of a Decepticon? For Devastor to be felled by a rail gun is an insult to the character. As for The Fallen, you'd expect the final fight against Optimus Prime to be monumental. Alas it wasn't so.
Well, there's always Transformers 3.
