  My evaluation.

  by Kyle_Adkins

  Alright, this is going to be a little tricky to review without spoiling. So, Instead of a typical review I think I'm going to break this into a Pro/Con:
  
  Pros:
  *The Action scenes (When they happened) were pretty nice.
  *They managed to keep the majority of the cast intact.
  *It had a fair amount of back-story, which was refreshing.
  
  Cons:
  *Too little action. In fact, the majority of the movie was focused on people. They honestly should have renamed it "Humans".
  *The movie was way too damn long. Some times I felt as if I were going to nod off.
  *They used too much cussing for the movie. I've never seen Optimus Prime start dropping F-Bombs in the animated series, call a Decepticon a "Punk B*tch", or anything of the sort.
  
  (Don't get me wrong, I'm not against cussing.. It's simply not Transformer's style..)
  
  All in all, I'd say it was about a 5/10. Nothing amazing, Nothing too Terrible either. Catch the early shows, or rent it when it comes out to DvD.

  MORE ACTION, MORE ROBOTS, AND MORE LAUGHS!

  by moviesnbumblebee

  Bottom Line: I saw this movie yesterday with my friends and as a huge fan of transformers and Megan Fox, I was so excited to see it. Transformers started out very fast with too many funny moments:) If you loved the first one, you'll love this one to. And if you've never even heard of transformers, you won't get to confused on the storyline. This movie has robot fights, comedy, Megan Fox, Shia Lebouf, and many more people from the original cast. It DEFINITLEY kept me entertained and laguhing.
  
  The Good: Very non predictable, the mom in the movie is HILARIOUS!!!! And the robot action is pretty awesome too.
  
  The Bad: A long movie but was worth watching it. Oh and when Sam had his "dream" in Egypt, that was confusing.
  
  Should I see it?
  Yes if you love comedy and action you will go Crazy for it!
  Leave little kids for some inapropiate comedy scenes.

  If you dont want to worry bout ur kids.. then... DONT BRING THEM! its a movie rated PG-13 for a reason
  
  13 year olds, mostly always here this stuff weather u like it or not.. dont bring ur 10 year old if its pg-13 for a reason! it does not need to be rated R... get over it and do what u should have done from the get-go.

  Don't Listen To The Bad Reviews

  by Richuh

  It was a great movie, saw it with some friends. Now all these people reviewing the movie saying it was bad are all probably adults with kids, and hey I totally understand why you would be mad, but do you understand that this was a PG13 movie and that you should have done some research before taking your children. Parents should've been more responsible and not have posted the reviews such as " I'm disappointed with the sexual innuendos and swearing." It was a PG13 movie alright it was funny, thats the point. In the mist of an epic battle, comic relief helps. It appeals to a younger mature age group. So its alright for parents to disapprove of the movie, it's because this movie wasn't meant to appeal to you. It appeals to a more mature audience. So no big deal parents with kids disapprove of it, everyone else on earth loves it.

  This is a must go!

  by movies_are_awesome_2009

  The whole movie was action packed! And even funnier than the first!
  I couldnt leave my seat it was so great! There wasnt a dull five minutes!
  There is a little cussing but its rated PG13 maybe you guys should look at the rating before taking your kids to this one! Its a movie for all ages my mom, my boyfriend and i went to see this movie at the midnight showing and people in the audience were laughing, crying, and clapping to the movie! I never saw that happen before! The crowd loved it! People were commenting on how great the movie was after! So dont let a little bit of people on the reviews judge your opinion GO SEE IT YOURSELF and then judge.

  Awesome Movie - but not for kids!

  by RedMomma0624

  I took my 8 yr old to see this. Great movie, with lots of action - HOWEVER IT IS DEFINATELY NOT APPROPRIATE FOR KIDS UNDER 13!!!! Lots of sexual innuendos (girl straddled on top of boy, girl bent over motorcycle seductively in shorts, short enough to see her crotch, and lots of slow motion shots of breasts swinging and bouncing during chase scenes). There is frequent cursing and a scene where the mother gets buzzed on dope. I'm not dissing the movie. I just think that parents should be warned not to take their younger children to see it. The movie is fantastic and well worth the price of admission..

  I wish I had Transformed into......

  by CypherSteele

  the Twilight Zone.
  
  I won't beat around the bush. I was disappointed. They didn't take the time to do the robots as well as the first and at times, it looked cartoonish.
  It was 2 1/2 hours of Shia running and yelling, Megan running in slow motion sometimes, (not a bad thing at all), and fights with clunking metal sounds.
  I actually dozed off...twice, and so did my 15 year old son.
  
  The plot.....was......eh.
  
  I went because I thought that if they could at least match the first one, it'd be good.
  
  Go see Star Trek...or see it again...wait for DVD for Revenge of the Fallen.

  Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

  by Larry Campbell

  The professional film critics were right -- the anthropormorphic characterizations of the robots are too over-the-top and jarring, especially the twin robots effecting African-American persona. The action scenes are too tight and confusing. The occasional comic relief insterts fall flat.
  It's as if two 8-year-olds are playing with their Transformer toys on the living room floor and becoming increasingly boisterous and loud and when they start throwing their Transformers against the wall, a parent usually would come in and say, "Alright, settle down now!"
  Only there was no parent to oversee this awful production.
  Don't worry about waiting for the DVD; it still won't be worth the 2 1/2 hours of your life lost.

  Too many people care about all of the crude humor but did anyone notice how good the CGI was?

  by kamuran

  Pros.
  I thought this movie was good. The CGI in this movie wasn't corny like today's movies. I liked the CGI because the robots were so detailed from far away, not just up close. There were more good features in this movie but I don't have enough characters to write more about the pros.
  
  Cons.
  SPOILER ALERT (There are no more spoilers after this spoiler).
  On thing I didn't like was the girl that wanted to have sex with Sam. You find out later that she's a robot and she tries to kill Sam when they are kissing.
  
  T2ROTF got a D, It got a D because of the crude and sexual humor. It deserves a B because there was still a lot of action packed scenes in it and the CGI was amazing. I would give it a 9/10 because of the acting and the CGI.
  
  Only take your kids to this if they're 13+ (PG-13 DUH)
  
  I read reviews from parents about how they added crude humor. Do you guys realize why they add all of the features in the description? SO!, YOU DON'T TAKE YOUR KIDS TO IT!
  
  THINK!

  Fantastic Movie

  by Draque07

  I read many of the reviews posted before seeing Transformer 2 today, and I am shocked at some of the reviews. There are numerous complaints of sexuality, language, and racism; I honestly don't see any merit to said complaints.
  As far as sexuality goes, I have seen more skin showing from teenage girls in public than there was in this movie.
  Language issues? The humor is somewhat sophomoric at points, true, but no more so than in most of today's movies. Some of the language is coarse for younger children, but is it overdone and completely obscene? No.
  Racism in this movie... The twins that speak in urban street slang are by no means racist, they are more Punch and Judy than they are robot Wayans Brothers. They provide comic relief not slur any race or culture.
  Overall, the plot, effects, and acting are well done. Anyone who watched the cartoon in the 80's (like me) knows the general direction of the movie, but people who are newer will still find enjoyment. Deserving movie.

  Sorry I took my son

  by gfrfan

  The good. The special effects as in the first were amazing. Michael Bay knows how to put on a movie with great effects that look and feel real. The story line was interesting and I won't spoil it by saying to much here but there were parts of the movie that were inconsequential to the overall story. The bad: I am sorry I took my son for 2 reasons: 1. He is only 7 and this movie was NOT made with children in mind. This was strictly an adult version of the Transformer empire. The Autobots cussed and used profanity in this movie which they did not do in the original (at least I don't remember it if they did). It was so bad that my son asked me why the Transformers were cussing. They didn't cuss in the first movie daddy....2. It was dripping with sexual content not necessary at all. 2 scenes of a chiuahua in heat with a bull dog (stupid addition to the movie) and a miniature autobot getting friendly with Miss Fox's leg. Other scenes in the movie were just as inappropriate.

  Excellent!

  by HikinDaddy

  This movie's hype machine the past year did not dissapoint...it was well worth the wait! Although you will hear it was a bit long over all (2 hours 29 minutes), it flows well and was a great sequel. And...for those nostalgic Transformer buffs out there, it did bring back some of the cool bots we all remember...allbeit in an updated version (come on, did you really expect a cassette player people?)! GO SEE IT!
  
  One note...for those of you with little kids, there is considerably more language in this one than the first, so leave the tots at home. My kids liked the first, but wont see the second because of the language, so be warned parents! Still, all in all a great movie!
