Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
2h30 I'll never get back :(
I've created an IMDb account only for this movie, to let people know how terrible it was...
I'm not really a big fan of robot/sci-fi movies, but my boyfriend made me go as I had made him watch the last Ben Affleck :) Anyways, even tho I'm not a fan, I thought it'd be a bit like Iron Man, which I liked a lot. When I saw Spielberg was involved in it, I was relieved and thought it was going to be good. Hell was I wrong... even my boyfriend (who's a programmer, understand: robot/high-tech fan) hated the movie. As everyone said: no plot, just a lot of bangs and booms and boobs.
It is true that technically-speaking, the special effects are impressive. But it's not the 1st time we see big robots and explosions. Besides this good point, the rest of the movie is kinda sad. It's like they made a salad: hot chick? check. robots? check. fire and explosions? check. US saving the world? check. lame-ass jokes? check. stereotypes? check. They gathered all ingredients they could think about and just mixed them up together.
Something else: I'm French, and the french clichés in American movies are getting really annoying. No we don't eat snails (unless you go in an extremely expensive, high-class, very traditional restaurant and specially order snails because you're a tourist) and we (at least my generation) don't know who the mime Marceau is. Also they should get their maps straight cos the Eiffel Tower is not where it was seen in the movie... But I'm getting carried away, that's a detail.
Actors: bad, bad, more bad. I mean, I'm sure I could do a better job and wouldn't cost as much. However, I must say Bravo Megan Fox for keeping your jeans white after running around in the desert and I want the same lip gloss she has! :P Seriously, how hard is it to keep things a tiny bit more realistic? Stop making us girls feel awful about ourselves! It'd be OK if Sam Witwick was hot too. But nooooo, we have a nerd instead of eye-candy. Not fair. Actually there was Josh Duhamel but he's not the hero so it doesn't count :)
Robots: hard to tell which are which. sound of clinging metal was annoying in the end (but didn't prevent me from drifting off during the last fight...). nothing to say really. It's all seen before, nothing new, nothing exciting.
Plot: well... I'm gonna guess it was all written in one night, 1 month before releasing the movie maybe? proof is: they mention Obama and the swine flu. There's nothing original/exciting in the plot, you can easily anticipate on everything, it's just very boring.
To sum up: it's "Cinema week" in France right now, and all movies are only 3euros (4$). I'm glad for that as I consider 3euros is still too expensive for that pile of s***. it's OK if you're only interested in the special effects (again, they're good, but nothing new there). Otherwise, don't bother. There's loads of good movies.
