Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is a sci-fi action film based on the toyline Transformers. The movie serves as a sequel to the 2007 film, and is the second installment of the film series. The movie was produced by Paramount Pictures, DreamWorks Pictures, Hasbro Studios, and Di Bonaventura Pictures and distributed by Paramount Pictures. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen was written by Ehren Kruger, Roberto Orci, and Alex Krutzman and directed by Michael Bay.
The story is it's been two years after the events of the first film, and Sam is heading off to college in the hopes of having a normal life. These plans are to change when Sam starts having visions of Cybertronian symbols. With this information, the Optimus Prime along with the rest of the Autobots must protect Sam from the Decepticons. However, both Megatron and the Decepticons have someone who can help give them an upper hand, The Fallen.
- Negatives
Even though there's nothing wrong with having a two hour long movie, this one on the other hand could've been shorter. Cause it truly did feel like it was two hours long.
- Mix
If there was one thing I had mix feelings on it was those moments of humor. I felt with the first movie, for the most part, did a pretty good job. This one on the other hand, while there were a couple of good bits in it, there was also a lot of times when it just plain sucked.
- Positives
Much like the first film, this one has incredible special effects. And just like the first, it's amazing how this is over ten years old, and yet the CGI is flawless.
Now while I did like the action in the first Transformers movie, I did have a slight issue with them. In this, the action has improved and that's because Michael Bay didn't have the camera so close this time around. So because of that, the action can be enjoyed even more so than before.
The last bit of credit I'll give is the lore that was added. I was surprised by how much I really liked hearing the story of the past Primes, the Fallen's origin, and whether or not Transformers were on Earth long before.
Now while I don't hate this movie, I clearly didn't lie and think it's spectacular. Hell, as far as sequels go, I've seen much worse. Much, much, much worse.
My final rating is, Okay.
That's going to do it for me. Due come back on Saturday, Feb 25th, where I'll give my review to not only the most anticipated movie of the year, but the most long awaited. I am, of course, talking about...Cocaine Bear (😆). Until then, enjoy the rest of your day.
