Advantages: Good Graphics

Disadvantages: Poor script, plot and acting

Having loved the first film, I was bitterly disappointed with its sequel. The original was captivating throughout, where as I found this movie a bore. The beginning was slow, and instantly I felt this a sequel for the sake of making a sequel rather than extending the plot in an imaginative way. The film seemed to begin with more focus on how hot Megan Fox was (which ofcourse she is), and I did not really understand where the movie was going, they did not even introduce a major character (another 'prime' until very late on!). The few cameo appearances of the sam's parents were a lame and poorly directed.

The were, however a few redeeming factors. The graphics were excellent and the transformers- as cool as ever! The movie did get a bit better as it progressed, but I had to force myself to focus on the plot so late on.

Overall, I would not recommend watching this movie, but I think it would be difficult to deter people from buying this, given the success of the first one.

Summary: dwarfs in comparison to the original
