First of all you need to remember that Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is based on a Hasbro toy line. That being said, this flick is NOT for children. Sure the special effects are great and the action fast moving, but this is a loud, violent, sexist film not meant for children or many of the rest of us. Although the story is simple - good versus evil, listening to trite conversation (at best) and rude humor makes it hard to decide who is good and who is evil. The characters, the human ones (Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, and John Turturro), dish out trite dialogue like they were sharing words of wisdom. And although I loved listening to Optimus Prime (Peter Cullen, alias Eeyore of Winnie the Pooh) I was baffled by the addition of two characters that James Rocchi (Special to MSN Movies, MSN Entertainment) calls "the racist-caricature robots of 'The Twins,' who speak in thug slang and 'aren't much for reading' and talk about getting 'up in that ass,' and one of whom has, I wish I were kidding, a gold tooth". I think this film should be transformed into a plastic trash basket. At least then it would serve a useful purpose.Check it out...we do have lots of Winnie the Pooh stories at the Nesmith Library, if you are interested...

I would love to say Transformers 2 was excellent, i would love to compare it to the first one and comment on what they improved on. I guess i can a little. Action was spot on and much more clearer, cool slow motion shots when necessary and great combat between the robots. In comparison to the first Tranformers instalment it was a lot better. Improved and delivered well in that department.
