I am SOOO pissed at Hollywood this year. First Wolverine, then Terminator, and now this crap.
Look, if you want eye candy of all kinds, it's there. The special effects are amazing, triple the first one - minimum. Beautifully done and mind blowing. The sound effects are the top notch they were in the first one. Megan Fox, if you think she's all that anyway, has plenty of scenes. The fights are nice and intense, and there's even some good lines.
But if you want a good story? GEEEEZ. Not here. Terminator, even Wolverine, was better and you know how I felt about those. Worse, the story line in this didn't match up with the first. Is it too much to ask for CONTINUITY in a SEQUEL? At least Wolverine was supposed to be a PREQUEL. At least Terminator stated that the future had been changed or altered than what it had been previously. What was this movie's excuse? NOTHING.
All that is bad enough, and then the insults start. Borrowed crap: apprentice and master stuff. Yeah, that's Star Wars' and it belongs with Star Wars, aright? And the dog "dominating" another dog? And let's waste the 2.5 hour runtime showing it multiple times because the only reason the family got another dog is so we can have this precious scene multiple times? Um, it wasn't funny in the fifty other movies before it, it wasn't funny the first time in this movie, and so it's absolutely not funny the other times following. IF IT'S NOT PERTINENT TO THE PLOT, EDIT.
I know this got a PG-13 to attract adults, but it'd be nice if they kept it to a lame PG-13 so more kids could see it. The sexual content and the language could have been toned down further to please both, sigh. The first had a lengthy sexual conversation so I'm not really surprised the second is about equal to it.
BUT PLEASE. The male body, especially one that is NOT a well-toned body, is NOT an attractive thing. And NO ONE, especially guys, should ever bee seen in a thong! I have YEARS of therapy I need to attend now.....
The mom was over-the-top in another disturbed scene, and don't even try to make sense of the use of a sliver of all-spark to revive an autobot who might now information of an object that might revive another autobot when...........shouldn't they just use the sliver to revive the one they want in the first place? *shakes head* whatever. Don't expect logic in this. If you do you'll be disappointed or your brain will explode.
Pretty pictures, that's about it.
