It blows. What else can I say?

I literally dragged three of my buddies to go watch this movie with me so I wouldn’t feel so foolish going alone, and all I could wish was for it to end as soon as possible. The CG and action was great, don’t get me wrong. But I didn’t even like the first movie, so what made me think that this was going to be good anyways?

This movie kind of made up for the fact that the first movie lacked action by being nothing but action. What little story there was present is hidden underneath layers of heavy CGI and military gimmicks which make life just that much harder for me to live through. There were nothing but lame jokes, apparently to appease the first graders sitting in the front rows.

There was a hot girl and the only role she played was eye candy. 75% of the movie “featuring” Megan Fox was of her ass. I assume she plays an integral part of the story progression since she did end up taming the Decepticon that ultimately led them to the old fart who knew everything. Still, they could have done this in a number of other ways, and they didn’t. What was with the cube sliver? Where did it go in the end? If Megatron can be revived with a simple shard, then couldn’t Optimus as well? Did that thought ever cross anyone’s mind? In any case, main boy dies and comes back, Optimus dies and comes back… lame.

This movie was lame. Michael Bay hasn’t produced a good film since The Rock and Bad Boys.
