Movie Review: Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
>> 30 June, 2009
Before I begin the review, I've noticed a confusion rambling the web whether the original title of the second Transformers movie is "Transformers: Rise of the Fallen" or "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen". If you surf both of these titles up, you'll get massive results.
I was confused with this too so I referred the Official Transformers Websiteand Wikipedia about this matter. And that's that!
Now let's begin.
Movies overflowing with action and suspense together with superb high-quality graphics and effects are some of the qualities that I look for. But I don't know why I can't seem to love Transformers as much as everybody else. Am I the only oddball around?
I am not a fan of Transformers. I barely watched the prequel and I wasn't expecting anything nor I was excited to watch the movie at all. But even so, the storyline should have been enough to satisfy my knowledge and made me an obsessed Transformers fan, but it didn't.
As the movie plays on, I must say that the graphics are indeed excellent! Good enough to make a shrine to worship on. The actors portraying their roles did pretty well and the funny scenes didn't fail to tickle my funny bone.
But there were scenes where the characters blab too much. Also, they phase too fast leaving us clueless to how it went on to the next couple of scenes.
I even got sick seeing the Autobots and the Decepticons transform to their originals forms. I know it's cool but they don't have to show it from time to time. Plus, there were times when I can't understand a word they were saying. Oh and I felt pity for some Autobots to be added as extras, even that cute little Decepticon who was hitting on Mikaela was gone after they all landed in Egypt.
Also, I hope in the next sequel, the camera focusing on the characters from afar should stay still and doesn't revolve around them 360 degrees! This is also a nice feature but I think they should lessen this.
All in all, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is indeed a great movie especially for the die-hard fans. The story may have been squeezed to reduce the length of the movie, but the thought is still present.
Oh btw, the movie is a bit R+18 so parents have to supervise their kids :p
Rating: 2.5/5
