November 18, 2009It's apparent that they were trying to do more with a storyline in this sequel, but somehow that was detrimental to the project. How can this be? . . . . . . . . . Oh, I know! I know! I know!
Just because you try to write a more involved story doesn't mean that it can't t

November 13, 2009It's bigger and better than the original. A spectacular, eye-popping, heart-pounding and visually dazzeling epic action masterpiece. It's an amasing sequel that stands as one of the greatest ever made in it's genre next to Aliens, Terminator 2: Judgement day and The Empire Strike...( read more)

October 25, 2009I know a lot of people hated this, but I'm not sure why - it seems to me to be a direct continuation of the first film that addressed the one thing people disliked the most from the first one - NEEDS MORE ROBOTS. Well, this had them, in spades.
Yes, the human plot was stupid to...( read more) -

Bigger and more overblown in every aspect (except where it's needed), Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen represents Michael Bay at his most unrestrained and confident. Bay and his trio of screenwriters (E -

November 20, 2009Storia pressoché inutile Transformers 2 sembra avere preso soltanto i lati negativi del primo che era una divertente novità . Piatto, lunghissimo, noioso e scontato il film si avvale di infiniti e curatissimi effetti speciali ( tra i migliori mai fatti) che tuttavia finiscono pe...( read more)

David Edelstein, New York Magazine

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Transformers: The Revenge of The Fallen is beyond bad, it carves out its own category of godawfulness. full review
June 24, 2009
Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
Compared to this sequel, the first Transformers, which was released two years ago, ranks right up there with Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. full review
June 24, 2009
Armond White, The New York Press
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is more proof [Bay] has a great eye for scale and a gift for visceral amazement. full review
June 24, 2009
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
Bay seems to think that just showing us a bunch of brightly clashing metallic limbs (accompanied by lots of noise) is enough to make us faint in our seats with excitement. full review
June 24, 2009
Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
A well-oiled, loudly revving summer action vehicle that does all that's required, and then some. full review
June 23, 2009
Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
I've just spent 2 1/2 hours watching a movie and another hour thinking about what I saw and I have no earthly idea what Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is about. full review
June 23, 2009
Nick Schager, Slant Magazine
No giant robots urinate on humans in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. full review
June 23, 2009
Ty Burr, Boston Globe
So what if he can't put a coherent series of shots together? Bay's going for pure sensation, and everyone knows dramatic continuity is for women and the weak. full review
June 23, 2009
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
Because Bay bombards you with so much, it's easy to forget that he can be a gifted technician. full review

September 11, 2009IT was fantastic and interesting.It revealed the power oftechnology but the movie has not been concluded, we need see TRANSFORMER 3 FOR THE CONCLUDED PART.

August 17, 2009Leo Spitz could have a new love interest played by Parminder Nagra in Transformers 3.
Sam is with his girlfriend: Mikaela to get married @ the end of the movie of Transformers 3.
Wheelie will join Autobots because he is frightened of Decepticons in Transformers 3 before he learned a former Decepticon: Jetfire switches side to join Autobots in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.
Hope for new Autobots in Transformers 3. -
August 15, 2009So the film had its plot holes, but the incredible display of action, CGI and acting made this film suberb, i really enjoyed this flick and would recommend to almost anyone.

July 16, 2009Anyone who wants to ditch Micheal Bay after this is just asking for the lack of continuity that has plagued series like Harry Potter and Star Trek. Transformers isn't an Artsie-Fartsie film. It isn't about fantastic acting and metaphors, it's a childs toy cartoon that became a movie. The movie blows your mind, it links in with the origional, and it made a boatload of money because regular people (who don't sit in a dark room analyzing movies all day for lack of a real job) actually went and saw it. The only way we'll get more great sequels is if we let Bay's imagination continue to amaze us.

July 6, 2009Anyone remember how many critics tore into Star Wars when it was released. I do. I remember hearing them on TV and reading in the papers about how awful the movie was, and how only the special effects made it worth seeing. Now you’ld be hard pressed to find a critic that would openly admit that he or she hated the film.
Is Revenge of the Fallen on a par with Star Wars? Oh hell no!! But then who cares except the self appointed gardians of what we should and should not enjoy. As is so often the case, the critics are way off base. So far off base in fact that it is shameful. But then this is not the artsie fartsie type of crap that critics always seem to think is so wonderful. Nor is it the kind of left wing propaganda piece that so many of the fools praise and cheer for.
This is purely a fun film, full of fast paced action, and good old fashion, good verses evil, hero stuff. 8^) -
July 2, 2009You guys are crazy, I'm not on the bandwagon but dang the movie was good for what it was...if u like love, drama, suspense or westerns this wasn't the movie for u don't complain, i mean really made u laugh and was an action flick , why expect more....you guys find ways to hate on a movie, there were hater on dark knight wtf could u hate on but they found their reasons and ran with em, titanic same story doesn't matter the movie or drama all ya want to do is hate.....but in reality for what its suppose to be transformers is great, and as far as u comic book people, dude there is no way and i mean no way to incorporate every achin detail into a movie i mean come on man, name a movie that can do that.

I think people just need to realize that you don't go to a movie like this to FEEL something, or to have some sort of revelation. Just like the first one, you go to a movie like this to watch giant robots kick the crap out of each other.

Funny how many people are followers about saying this movie was grate when they really know it could have been allot better. I may be one of few that will speck my voice about how bad the movie was. I grew up with Transformers, watched every cartoon/movie about them. This was a big disappointment. If you like junk and have a low standard then you will like it. watch this http://g4tv.com/videos/39560/The-Real-Transformers-Debate-/

June 30, 2009It's interesting how so many critics have said so many bad things about this movie, and yet, according to the news (if you want proof, check the links on the right hand side at the bottom), this movie is the second highest grossing movie in it's opening weekend of all time, only barely behind The Dark Knight. And it's expected to be one of only *eight* movies of all time to break the $400 million mark. So, no matter what the flaws were, someone somewhere must have done something right. Either that, or there's only 100 sane people in the world. Get a life people. There's a reason this is classified an Action movie, not a Drama.
And yes, I agree there were a number of flaws. But it was still a good movie. Someone said something about only wanting to see Harry Potter now because of this movie. Talk about flaws? How about completely removing characters that were in *every* book? Every movie has its flaws. What makes a movie good is not a lack of flaws, but how they put it all together.
