Transformers: The Second Coming

[Darth Wagtaros]

Very funny and action packed.

The plot was very linear and simple, a 12 year old could follow it.

The plot was so convoluted even a 12 year old on ritalin could be unable to make sense of it. 

Seriously? It was a simple series of get the MacGuffin, just about the least complex plot there's possible to have.

The only Get the MacGuffin I saw was at the end.

Nr 1 Get the Shard
Nr 2 Find Jetfire
Nr 3 Find the tomb of the Primes
Nr 4 Get the Matrix to Optimus Prime

Must have missed them, I was struck by the awesome dialog like the mother telling a group of college girls abuto Sam 'just getting his cherry popped! He didn't know I was still in the house!"

She was stoned, I love whoever that actress is, very funny in my opinion.

Like I said, if they had cut 45 minutes out of it, dropped the lame ass Autobot Twins - and I'm surprised no one is shouting racism after what amounts to a minstrel show there - it wouldn't have been a bad summer movie.

You obviously haven't looked on the net very hard.

You knew this because you had to ask the 12-year-old next to you what was going on?

As it happens I haven't.

I saw one reviewer call them "Sambots."

I guess I don't get the idea that just because a movie has giant robots in it, it is required to suck.  I think it is possible to make a good movie about anything.  Please explain to me how giant robots mean you are required to have bad writing, poor acting, and nonsensical plots.

I mean these are still professional actors and writers.  They should do a good job regardless of what the subject of the film is, especially if it is a big budget film.

She's reasonably attractive, but it's not like she's the hottest thing in the universe or anything.

besides, I can see hotter on the internet for free, I don't have to go spend money on a movie to see a hot girl. :mono:

[Warspite]

An awful film.

While so many of its elements simply failed beyond hopelessness, one stands out in particular: the script. An action film needs suspense. It needs to convey a sense of peril and of urgency. Unfortunately, by taking every possible opportunity to throw in a throw away joke, they undermined any suspense. The most egregious example of this was the police check in Jordan. Instead of tension, we have a fucking dwarf.
