    the first movie had ZERO plot and the special effects were nausiating and pointless

    michael bay is the worst thing to happen to cinema since jerry bruckheimer and post-good stuff george lucas and steven speilberg... its really insulting to make a sequel to such a worthless POS movie knowing that impressionable teens are gonna spend their hard earned money to drool over megan fox for 2 wasted hours

    and you know there will be a 3rd... i just cant wait to stop hearing about it

    thats my take... based on uhh... nothing :mrgreen: enjoy the film this weekend

    Eh, it's mindless fun. It kills 2 hours quickly without being obtuse or hard to follow, and sometimes that's all you want.
    Thanks EPOTTSIII!

    I was disappointed with the movie. It was too goofy at times. The fight scenes were confusing.... and the story of an awkward teen without any friends who is visited by extra terrestrials and goes on an incredible adventure and becomes a man and gets the hot chick.... is waaaaaay to cliche/unoriginal.

    AND YAH... were supposed to buy into shiah and megan fox as a couple?!? that girls probably been fuckin linebackers since she was 14 and he used to be on the disney channel... give me a break

    Like every other kid my age, I loved the Transformers, and I can remember going to see the original cartoon movie in 1986 when I was 10 and we all thought it was so cool because they used the words "shit" and "ass" :lol: AND transformers actually died.

    So a big group of us went to see the Michael Bay film and despite how ridiculous it was, or because of it, I was thoroughly entertained. Honestly, I can enjoy watching any Michael Bay film ONCE, with the exception of Pearl Harbor. However, I have no interest in seeing this sequel.

    Same here...I loved the cartoon

    I liked the first one..some goofy spots in it...but they try to appeal to the kids also

    I felt like such a loser when I was in OLD NAVY..they had this huge sign advertising a free TRANSFORMERS Poster when you buy a Transformers T-shirt...I'm looking and looking...nothing..I asked the lady working there where are the Transformers T-shirts ? and she said.."Oh, it's only for boys sizes..."

    I loved it. No brain required. There is a LOT more action than the first movie. And there are some stunning scenes in it (the fight in the forest looks magnificent). Loads more Optimus Prime than the first film, so thats always good. And they put Soundwave & the constructicons in - whats not to like? :) Sam's mom is hilarious too. Megan Fox....and that girl Isabel Lucas (the hot girl in the college) are great.

    So yeah, the film brought out the kid in me. :oops:

    Most people who I know that didnt like it complained about the nonsensical story - Hello!! Its a film about Transformers!! :lol:

    Compared to the first film they don't develop or explain the story well. But this story is faithful to the the old cartoons, so the storyline is actually fairly predictable if you watched the cartoons/the cartoon movie. I guess my point is that they could have made it even more unrealistic, so just be thankful.

    I'd love to have seen these movies made a bit more sinister, with less "hollywood blockbuster" dialouge, but im happy with whats been done. Over the top, tongue in cheek, and cheesy as hell. Just like the old transformers. 8/10

    Thanks! We went to the first one because my kids collect Transformers and love them and we liked the movie. :)

    My sons are 12 and 17 now. They just had birthdays and it's almost unbelievable to me how big they are getting!! :shock:

    Totally agree. I didnt mind the first one, but the very next day, I couldnt tell you a thing about the move except some explosions (and Ms. Fox, of course -- assholes marketing to my lower half!) If the plot and characters dont stick with you, whats the point really? mindless fun is okay sometimes, but this one just makes me feel icky. Michael Bay has done nothing impressive.

    Cool !

    I know thats what I keep saying you're not gonna get an Oscar worthy movie when the movie is about talking robots and was a cartoon to begin with !

    I think people are expecting too much
