Transformers II

[forsyth]

Very short category review:
Lots of: explosions, and giant robots fighting each other, plot holes, tasteless jokes, generically "hot" women, war porn, missed opportunities, badassness for Optimus Prime, macguffins
Few of: character arcs, names for new characters, characterization for new characters, lines for new characters
Way too much: Man ass, testicle jokes, humping jokes, length of time


So, basically, it was just what could be expected for a Michael Bay sequel to the Michael Bay first movie, turned up to 11. Entertaining if you're not expecting anything more than giant robots fighting or are a thirteen year old boy. It was pretty much what I expected, and I was entertained in the theater, though afterwards the plot holes started to irritate. But I didn't expect more than it was, so I got what I expected.

I always thought Transformers is all aout giant robots fighting multiplied by twenty.So why would I go in expecting something different? =D

Not quite. More a matter of things I could see then, but they were usually overwhelmed at the time by giant robots, explosions, and flash cuts.
