Revenge of the not-as-good. Or something

A belated review of Transformers 2 I shalt now give you. Nowz, anyways, when Transformers 1 came out it wowed everyone with its amazing storyline: giant robots punching each other on the face. With missiles. Can you think of a better storyline? No, you can't. However, the writer of Transformers seemed to misunderstand what it means to be able to come up with a good storyline and thought he was also a good writer. Roflmao.

The entire first fifth of Transformers 2 felt like it was comic relief. No, not slapstick comedy, I'm on drugs comedy. Which was funny because Shia Labeouf was on drugs, but he was the only character who didn't act like it. Comic relief reappeared throughout the movie to annoy those of us who wanted to see explosions and giant robots and had a good sense of humor.

Then there was the whole gooey romanctic parts. Those can only be described as really, really, zetta zetta crappy. Or just as BAD!!!! As in, bad, bad bad bad dscript writer, why the factor did you put these scenes in? Your characters have dry personalities, you can't write, yet you tried to get an emotional response from the audience. The characters got even worse in this movie, as it became nearly impossible to distinguish good guys from bad guys. We must save the humans! After we act like cold-blooded serial killers! Roarsauce! Show no emotion, only blood! Their blood! Now save the humans!

But, to be fair, Transformers 2 did have some stuff that I liked. The new robots were cooler than the ones in Transformers 1, and some of the few actions scenes were much more spectacular than that of Transformers 1. Yes, Transformers 2 is worse than Transformers 1, but because it tried to hard to be good and forgot that people only came to see robot on robot action. Wait a second...
