I will say I loved Ravage and Soundwave, and a few of the action scenes were great-especially the forest scene. Megan Fox is pretty to look at. Tuturro (sp?) also really underplayed his role which was good.
That said I cannot forgive a steaming pile of a popcorn movie. This movie missed on everything that made the first TF movie charming, entertaining, and engaging. Yes, many summer blockbusters are eye candy and lack plot, but this film lacked any redeeming quality and I wanted to gouge my eyes out, and fill my ears with my leftover nacho cheese.
The endless potty humor, numerous testicle jokes, social stereotype Autobots that made me cringe with every word, blatant cursing, and leg humping robots was alone enough to make me think this film was a blight on society. It also had plot holes, meaningless characters, visually confusing fight scenes, idiotic pot brownie gags, and is it really that hard to say "love" to a super hot woman--geez.
I like Transformers and this film entertained many of my fan boy wants and desires, but honestly, to forgive this film as mindless entertainment is going too easy. A summer blockbuster can also have something more can't it? Does it have to be a bunch of explosions, cgi, and potty humor?
This movie didn't have to be an indie film or an Oscar Nominee, I usually hate half of them, but my love of big giant robots and big action cannot make me forgive this waste of time and money.
