DESCRIPTION

HI MOVIE BUFFS...THE BIGGEST MOVIE OF THE SUMMER IS FINALLY HERE...TRANSFORMERS REVENGE OF THE FALLEN! IT'S BIGGER...IT'S LONGER...AND IT CERTAINLY DOESN'T DISAPPOINT...

SHIA LABEOUF RETURNS AS SAM WITWICKY IN THE SEQUEL TO TRANSFORMERS...THE SUPER HOT MEGAN FOX ALSO RETURNS AS HIS GIRLFRIEND MIKAELA...

SAM IS OFF TO COLLEGE LEAVING HIS TRUSTED GUARDIAN BUMBLEBEE AND MIKAELA BEHIND...

MEANWHILE...THE GOOD GUYS KNOWN AS AUTOBOTS WITH THEIR LEADER OPTIMUS PRIME...HAVE JOINED FORCES WITH THE U-S AND BRITISH MILITARY TO FORM AN ORGANIZATION CALLED NEST...THEIR MISSION? TO COMBAT THE VILLAINS KNOWN AS THE DECEPTICONS STILL HIDING OUT ON EARTH...

MEGATRON...THE LEADER OF THE DECEPTICONS...HAS BEEN REVIVED AND IS REUNITED WITH HIS MASTER...THE FALLEN...NOT ONLY DO THEY WANT TO GET RID OF THE AUTOBOTS FOR GOOD...THEY ALSO WANT TO DESTROY THE SUN AND EARTH...

APPARENTLY, DIRECTOR MICHAEL BAY BELIEVES SIZE MATTERS! TRANSFORMERS REVENGE OF THE FALLEN IS TWO AND A HALF HOURS LONG...BUT FANS OF THE FRANCHISE WILL HAVE A BLAST CHEERING FOR THEIR FAVORITE ROBOTS...AS WELL AS NEW ONES...

THE HUMANS? WELL...THEY'RE JUST MERE PAWNS TO MOVE THE NARRATIVE FORWARD...BY NOW...LABEOUF AND COMPANY HAVE MASTERED SAYING GO GO GO...AND OH GOD...MULTIPLE TIMES...AND THE FILMMAKERS KNOW HOW TO MARKET TO THEIR TARGET DEMOGRAPHICS...THE TEENAGE MALE...THE FIRST TIME WE SEE MEGAN FOX...WELL...SHE'S IN A PROVOCATIVE POSE...

THE PLOT? IT'S A MIXTURE OF RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK AND THE MUMMY...OUR HEROES ARE IN SEARCH OF THE MISSING MATRIX OF LEADERSHIP THAT WILL HELP THE DECEPTICONS WITH THEIR EVIL PLANS...IT'S ALSO A PLOY TO INTRODUCE THE ANCIENT ORIGINS OF THE TRANSFORMERS...

LIKE AN AMUSEMENT RIDE...TRANSFORMERS REVENGE OF THE FALLEN KNOWS WHAT IT IS...IT'S BUILT TO ENTERTAIN AND DOESN'T TAKE ITSELF SERIOUSLY...YES, AT TIMES I FELT LIKE I WAS WATCHING A PSA FOR THE MILITARY...BUT I'LL BE LYING TO YOU IF I SAY I DIDN'T ENJOY THE ACTION SCENES SPECIALLY THE BATTLE AT THE FOREST...

ZIPPING IN AND OUT OF NEW YORK, PARIS, SHANGHAI, EGYPT, AND JORDAN...THIS TRANSFORMERS IS A GLOBETROTTING EXPERIENCE THAT DOESN'T HOLD BACK...THE EYE POPPING VISUAL EFFECTS ARE ENOUGH TO RECOMMEND THIS FILM EVEN THOUGH YOU MAY FIND THE PLOT CONFUSING, AND THE DIALOGUE SIMPLISTIC...

AND FOR THAT...TRANSFORMERS, REVENGE OF THE FALLEN GETS 3 MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE KISSES...

SO THERE YOU HAVE IT MOVIE BUFFS...THE MACHINES...PREDICTABLY...UPSTAGED THE HUMANS...BUT I'M STILL RECOMMENDING TRANSFORMERS REVENGE OF THE FALLEN FOR WHAT IT IS...A SPECTACULAR SUMMER POPCORN FLICK! I'M MANNY THE MOVIE GUY...TRANSFORM...
