Found a more positive review:

Is it any good? The first thing you need to do before you see this movie, and you should see this movie, is disengage your brain. This is not a thinking man?s film that will provoke deep discussions, it?s a summer blockbuster of the purest form and it?s just meant to be fun. It?s not perfect but it?s the flaws are only visible because the rest of the film is SO good. The script is tighter and funnier where the first film couldn?t decide how to gauge the laugh levels and the acting of all involved is far more fitting for the film?s tone. The set pieces are on a scale I don?t think I?ve ever seen before and will blow you away with a sound mix that you?ll feel rather than just hear ? you will literally vibrate in places! My only two issues with this are the length ? at just under two and a half hours it is a bit too long, and sometimes it plays too much to the younger demographic where you feel it?s more about marketing the spin off toys than the movie itself. The plot is half decent though which is a relief as the first one didn't have much of one really. However, despite its few faults, this is this summer?s biggest ticket and ties with Star Trek for the best summer blockbuster of 2009.

Also, a friend just got from seeing it, he wanted to say this on Facebook:

the special effects are just blinding now, probably the best for its time

Just got back from seeing it. The critics are full of s_ _t.

This is a great film and great sequal. Just as good if not better than the first.

Load more robots and a lot more humour thrown in.

Great film and well worth the ?5.50.

Best film of year so far by a mile.

I'd give it an 8/10.

Transformers 2 - Now 38% at RT. :o :no:

First off you have to ask yourself. Why is it exactly we pay good money to go see a transformers movie? First off Michael bay is directing so can you really expect THAT good of story? Also I wasn't blown away with the acting from the first movie. I thought there was WAY too much humor mixed in when the movie should have been rated R (but that would have prevented the main audience which was pre teens from going to see it.) So what are we left with? Special Effects. We are left with watching robots kick the **** out of each other in such a spectacular manor that it makes you want to wet yourself. That's why we all really go see a movie like transformer. So RT gave it a 38% who cares as long as we get to see some good old fashion robot butt kicking.

There is no need to get angry. :o I just posted the ratings. :p I also don't care about critics and will definitely see the movie. :D

Stupid Critics doesn't understand what kind of movie Transformers is, where Transformers came from, they Don't get it!!!

Argh, who cares?

Most of them like SLOW/BORING movies without ANY kind of action in it, whatsoever!

This sounds Awesome!

"A stunning opening sequence in Shanghai where the decent Autobot Optimus Prime (hurrah!) takes out a rogue Decepticon mono-cycle (boo!) packs more action into fifteen minutes than most films manage in two hours."

Where did you manage to go see this for ?5.50?? The cheapest I've found it in London is the 02 Centre on Finchley Road in London...

Speaking of which - tonight i will enjoy Megan Fox

Just for the new OST Transformers album. AWESOME!

Yeah, gotta say I really love New Divide from Linkin Park and 21 Guns from Green Day grew up on me, now I really like it.

New Divide is something I can actually jam at with my electronic drum, so it's twice as nice for a song for me :p
