Review of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009) by Astro S — 28 Mar 2018
This to me is the worst of the Transformers films. Mainly for one lone reason, the first film explained everything aside from a few things, but this film NEVER explains anything, characters either vanish, plotholes are all over the place, ill try to explain to the best of my knowledge.
By the way I am spoiling this if you haven't seen the film. The fallen, this age old robot that can only be beaten by a Prime, resurrects Megatron, and Megatron ends up killing Optimus, the thing I don't understand is that, Why is Megatron taking orders from this guy when clearly he is more powerful? Another thing is how characters in this movie vanish, the two annoying Gangster robots are in the whole film up until the fight with Devastator, you see the green one nearly get sucked into his mouth, he smashes his face against a wall and says "My Eye," And then the two droids vanish, never mentioned again and never shown again.
Or the little obnoxious droid that follows the two main characters, they find the old decepticon and they teleport to the desert, apparently the little droid was hanging onto the things leg, he falls off, and they never show him again or mention him again, but he somehow reappears and is somewhat of a main character in the Dark of the Moon.
The biggest thing I think they should've explained is that, at the end of the first transformers movie, Bumblebee starts talking again, but they just randomly in this film he stops talking for no reason.
I know ive been ranting on this whole time about how they don't explain anything but that is one of two reasons why this movie sucks so bad. But the biggest reason why I dislike this movie is because of how it seems much more like a parody of the first film than it does a sequel.
It is much more like a comedy film than an action movie, and the comedy isn't even funny. The only good thing I can say about this movie is that the action is really good, but thats all the good I can say about this movie.
So Revenge of the Fallen I can do without.
