The first Transformers (2007) was an absolute masterpiece. It was cool and great. It made the sequel: Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen became highly anticipated. I was crazy about the movie before it came out. The trailers promised that there would be high-quality action like the first movie and yes there was.
The story of the TF2 was that in 17.000 B.C., an alien robot landed on Earth. The name was The Fallen, he was a Prime. He brought with him a weapon that would s
uck the Sun. His plan didn't go well because other Primes disagree with him. Back to modern times, the Autobots had joined forces with the US Army, making NEST whose goal was to terminate all Decepticons. Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) was going to college and met strange college friends. Sam found a small piece of the Cube which still held power to energize things like kitchen appliances into transforming little robots. The small piece made Sam had a knowledge about Cybertron, the robots' planet. And so, the resurrected Megatron along with its Decepticons (which were unnamed and unintroduced) plus the Fallen were battling the many (and also some unnamed and unintroduced) Autobots once again in the eternal battle of the two high-tech machinery alien races.

Also there's Megan Fox who appeared hotter than in the first movie. Shia LaBeouf also great as always. The transforming yellow Camaro Bumblebee was damn sexy just like in the first one. The negatives: there were way too many robots here. It's a pity that Michael Bay didn't give a chance to properly introduce the new Autobots and Decepticons. I guess 46 robots is too hard to introduce anyway. furthermore, there were clearly too many unneeded jokes, especially Judy Witwicky. Some opinions by myself: i think the Autobots had gone rogue, really rogue this time and somebody just got to explain how did the transformers learned how to change into human. I hope that Transformers 3 will get better and hopefully to be the same like the original Transformers. (C+)
