"There isn't a whole lot to say about this movie... seeing as it is a sequal, I would be lying to say my expectations weren't high. Dispite the fact that about fifteen minutes into the movie I was pleading for the credits to roll, the plot was bearable and the acting wasn't the worst. AND dispite the fact that a major selling point for the movie was banked on Megan Fox's unfortunately gorgeous bod- I was hoping that the Transformers would be a main part of a movie that holds the title "TRANSFORMERS"... What I got was a washed up storyline revolving around the Military & a college student named Sam... The transformer Bumble-Bee (a main character in the previous film,) barely held a part in this movie. I was dissapointed to find myself losing intrest so quickly, and had to force myself to pay attention to the rest of the film... all in all, I wish it would have been better! "

"I remember seeing the first trailer for Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen (T2:ROTFL?) in the theater. It was loud, and that was the best I could say. Everything that followed that first impression accelerated expectations in a death spiral. Obviously, I wasn’t the only one, Reviewers around the world sharpened their pencils and got jiggy with it, sometimes with magnificence. ”’Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’ is a horrible experience of unbearable length, briefly punctuated by three or four amusing moments. One of these involves a dog-like robot humping the leg of the heroine.” – Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times “Few elements of Fallen are completely odious unto themselves, but rolled together it becomes a wave of inescapable proportions – a literal tsunami of shit.” – Rob Humanick, The Projection Booth “It’s a wad of chaos puked onto the big screen, an arbitrary collection of explosions and machismo posturing and frat boy assholery.” – David Cornelius, eFilmCritic

"I have always tried to maintain low expectations for Hollywood product in general. But when it comes to highly anticipated movies, particularly blockbuster sequels to popular sci-fi action franchises, my excitement can get the best of me. Whenever I need to calm down my expectations, though, I simply recall all the disappointments of 1997 (Alien Resurrection, The Lost World, the Star Wars Special Edition), and I can get through the hype pretty safely. Considering I’m one of the few who actually loved both Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines and (yes, even) McG’s Charlie’s Angels movies, it’s hard for me to believe that I’m also one of the few who isn’t now expecting Terminator Salvation to be the second coming of Christ

"This movie has to be the most mind boggling, horrifyingly appalling movie I have ever had the misfortune of sitting through. This is cinematic brain murder and the only credit I can give it is that it is not easily forgotten. Like a McDonald's Double Big Mac it stays with you, making you nauseous, even after it has been consumed and should have gotten out of your system. There are so many useless/embarrassing scenes/characters in the movie (e.g: Julie White vs Pot Brownies, Humanoid hot chick, Rainn Wilson cameo (why?!), Jetfire, the hyperactive, illiterate, jive talking negrobots (zzzzz...), Autobot Heaven (!!!?!), every scene involving John Turturro, etc) and an endless display of agonizing, loud action scenes that are really very difficult to keep track off. This movie reminds me of 1997's Batman and Robin in that it eclipses what little story there is (although one could argue that in this particular film there is just waaaaaay too much story), foregoes any attempt at the sl ...

"Unbearably long, barely acted and filled with more sweeping camera shots than any other Michael Bay-directed movie before it, Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen is a terrible, lumbering behemoth of a film. When it's not an explosions-filled action movie, it's an awful teen comedy, teetering on the brink of being farcical. Beginning with overlong backstory that nobody really understands or cares about, it's a while before we're reunited with the film's protagonist, Sam Witwicky (Shia Labeouf), as he prepares to set off for a normal life at college, fully intending to leave his transforming car, Bumblebee, behind. Unfortunately, along with Sam we're also reunited with his parents, Ron (Kevin Dunn) and Judy (Julie White) who resemble a Laurel & Hardy-esque slapstick double act throughout the entire film. Laughs are played for witlessly in every scene they're in, which is far too many, including humping dogs (Twice! And in stupidly quick succession!) and the accidental ingestion ... "

"One thing you have to love about the fanboys, they’re always a glass-half-full kind of people. Whenever one of their beloved movies gets ripped apart by critics, they point to the box office results with pride. Critics are meaningless, they remind us, because Transformers and the Pirates of the Caribbean sequels and the Star Wars prequels made so much money. And now, with their Watchmen having received both mixed reviews and a relatively disappointing opening weekend, they’re still defending its success to the end. Drew McWeeny of HitFix said it best in a Tweet this morning: “Box-office talk is absolute death to me. I just don’t care. It got made. I liked it. I win.” McWeeny may not exactly be the king of the geeks, but he does inadvertently represent them today. Because whether or not Watchmen has technically underperformed (or “failed” in any way) should not be their concern any more than the negative rev "

"Quick game: Take a look at this leaked image of the toy version for The Fallen, the main villian in the Transformers sequel and see if you can guess which component is going to come under fire from concerned parents organizations across the country. Some quick thoughts about this: Did anyone at any point in the toy’s development use the phrase “Big f***ing robot schwanz?” What does that transform *from*. Is he naturally bow-legged or is that just a side effect from his…condition? Am I the only one who looks at this and thinks “He’s going to very popular” in the same voice Marty Feldman uses in Young Frankenstein?

"Warner Bros.’ surprise decision last week to move Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince from November to next July caused quite a stir. Fans were upset. Entertainment Weekly was embarrassed. The only people not bothered seemed to be the Twilight crowd, who benefited in the release date jumble when their anticipated adaptation moved up its opening to fill the vacancy. But why did the studio suddenly push back its major fall tent pole? Especially after receiving such favorable buzz surrounding its recently unveiled teaser trailer? Warner’s official statement seemed little more than a “just because” stance. So, ever the skeptic and speculator, I’ve compiled this list of more likely excuses: 10. Equus - My first thought after hearing the news was that Harry Potter’s penis was the cause. And I guess I think like Roger Friedman, who is claiming it’s the tr "
