Transformers 2 review
16 years ago
Just got back from the midnight screening of Transformers 2.
I have to say I'm rather mixed on it.
*WARNING, there will be spoilers on the humor of the film.*
The good
-CGI is much better then the first
-Plenty of fight scenes and Baysplosions
The Bad
-The film is about 3 hours long, with scenes and plot devices that could have been trimmed way down.
-Too many transformers to keep track of. (In all honesty, the most screen time of the autobots goes to the ones for comic relief. While the more serious ones barely get much screen time.)
The WTF?!
-The Humor
This deserves some detail, the humor ranges from being pretty funny to major WTF. Here's a list of some of the more "questionable humor"
-Sam's Mom does Marijuana.
-Chiuaha dominating a boxer.
-A small transformer humping Megan Fox's leg.
-A small transformer with a gun for his dick. (In reality, his dick IS the gun!)
Finally, we have Devastator's BIG HONKIN' NADS. When I first heard about this I thought it was a quick gag that you had to keep an eye out for. I was totally wrong as they are RIGHT THERE in all their swinging glory, the theater I was in went SILENT when they were shown. The audience was stunned by his Big, Fat, Balls.
Now in all honesty I did enjoy the film, but that's because I was only expecting a big popcorn flick. Which is pretty much all the film is, a popcorn flick with lot's of robot cussing, explosions and BIG FUCKING NUTS.
Oh yes, I forgot to mention what happened with the trailers.
For the epic fail that is Twilight, a group of mindless fangirls squeled when the trailer came on...which was quickly followed by the rest of the theater letting out a huge groan.
At the end of the Harry Potter trailer, several people yelled "Snape Kills Dumbledore!", which was quickly followed by several others yelling "WHAT?!"
