Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Blu-ray: Review By Avian

After seeing this in the theatre, I easily found this to be one of the worst movies of the year. I hoped it would be better than the last one, but Michael Bay has proven, once again, that he is an idiot.

I'll be honest, I stopped watching the movie when Sam and his "friends" were going to a party. I skipped to the one good scene in the entire movie, Optimus Prime vs. Megatron, Starscream, and Blackout (wait, he died in the first movie). But ofcourse, when Optimus "dies", I knew Bay would'nt have the balls to keep him dead. I skipped to the 40 minute fight scene at the end after that, but that was even boring.

Also, why is the movie called Transformers when the humans get all the screen time? Very boring screen time. Infact, in Bay's words, the movie is about "a boy learning and maturing into a man." I'm not impressed. Besides, over half of the human characters were not needed. Infact, half this movie was not needed.

Here's a list of everything pointless:

Leo (Sam's roomate and comic-relief fried)

Lennox (The 'white' military personel)

Epps (The 'black' military personel)

Simmons (The jackass comic-relief but soon becomes Sam's friend)

Alice (The terminator/transformer)

Soundwave (He serves as a Decepticon satillite)

Mudflap & Skitz (Comic relief retarded black voiced transformers, which is emberassing)

Mikaela (serves as the "hot-ass girl" in the film, and that's it)

The Fallen (he does one cool thing and gets killed by Optimus within 40 seconds of the fight)

The College (which was entirely fake)

Mom & Dad (Sam's parents)

30 out of 40 of the Transformers

Robot heaven (I'm serious, Sam goes to robot heaven)

Devastator (and his balls too)

These objects/things serve absolutly no point to the movie and does not move the story along at all.

The acting is neither good nor bad, just very annoying, and the story itself is flat and uninteresting. Infact, when ever the movie jumps to different locations, its always the same time. And I don't remember ever seeing a desert Washington, mabye that's because when the humans meet Jetfire in Washington, he's able to bend time and space right to Arizona...and teleport?

By the end of the movie, even the special effects suffer. In wide shots of the Transformers, you can trully see that there is very little difference between the 2007 release, and sometimes looks cartoony.

If there's one good thing about he movie that isn't part of the movie, it's the picture and sound. Both are nearly top notch.

I'm proud to say they included a Blu-ray only feature that allows you to edit the movie. That way, I can watch the 30 minutes of it I actually like, or make a better movie (I seriously bet I could).

OVERALL: PASS it up, it's not worthy of your attention.

On a side note, Optimus Prime is the only good character in this movie, and Megatron is decent. I give Bumblebee and Starscream some credit too.
