Great movie and soundtrack
Added 11/22/2009
This is a great movie. I saw it in the theater and couldn't wait for it to come out on DVD. The soundtrack is awesome also. I actually preferred this movie to the first Transformers movie. Highly recommend it to anyone who even somewhat enjoyed the original.

Rent, and watch the action scenes.

Michael Bay can make some great explosions. He has trouble creating a meaningful plot. Rent this movie, skip the scenes with racial stereotype bots, and watch the fight scenes in the beginning and in the end of the film. You will have just barely gotten your money's worth.

Just OK and Not nearly as good as the first
Added 11/21/2009
So, I am one of the few people who grew up watching the Transformers cartoons in the 80's and actually liked the first live-action movie in this series. I bought this sequel without seeing it at the theater despite all the criticism I'd read. Well, I have to say that they made some very poor decisions in the writing department. Whereas with the first movie it was fairly safe to have our young son watch this movie is riddled with out-of-place, awkward and unnecessary expletives that seem like they were added to the script just for the sake of having them. I am not a prude in any sense but even I was put off by the very awkward inclusion of expletives. On top of that are the stereotypical and racially insensitive new Autobot twins. Even still Optimus Prime says things that seem very out of character. Overall, the movie is OK with nice special effects and a few new characters but the movie is not anywhere near on par with the first film in the story or dialogue departments. Unfortunately, this is not a movie I see myself watching repeatedly as I did with the first film.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (Two-Disc Special Edition) [Blu-ray] (2009)
Added 11/21/2009
I thoroughly enjoyed this action movie. It was by far as good as the first movie and maybe even better. I would highly recommend this movie for those who like science fiction action moview.

Worst...movie...ever...
Added 11/21/2009
I'd rather wake up with my head stapled to the carpet than to have to give up 2 hours of my life watching this utter garbage. The mindless fights aren't even introduced by the paper thin plot (when there is a plot). Most of the movie is spent watching Shia wandering around while the Autobots inexplicably keep abandoning him. Come on, any 5 year-old playing with dolls can come up with a better storyline. This movie is WAY too violent for kids, and WAY too stupid for anyone over the age of 10. Watch the terrific first movie again instead, you'll thank yourself for it.
