Transformers 2 : Mini Review

Ok, I finally bit the bullet and went this last weekend to my local multiplex in Auckland to go and see the movie that knocked Star Trek off the No1 spot at the box office.

In a nutshell? 'Style over substance' that's it.

Don't get me wrong, its kinda what I expected anyway so I was not actually disappointed, but the film definitely lacked some important elements such as...
  • Storyline
  • Characters
  • Narrative
What the movie did have was...
  • Awesome CG
  • Megan Fox ( Wallpaper here )
Also what I found interesting was that almost the entire 2nd half of the movie was just an advert for the might of the US Military.

Destroyers, Carriers, Bombers, Choppers, you name it, they are all here, but the fact that a movie like this could topple a movie like Star Trek at the box office says a hell of a lot more about the general cinema-going audience than the movies if you ask me.

2/5
