Review of film: “TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN” -- Vengeance can sometimes be very LOUD!


Review of film:  “TRANSFORMERS:  REVENGE OF THE FALLEN” -- 

                                Vengeance can sometimes be very LOUD!  =

                    Rating:  7.5 of 10 stars (as seen in the IMAX format:) 


 
If you like action in your movies, you’ll probably very much enjoy this. If you’re looking for “Logic” or “Restrained” acting, you’ll be OUT OF LUCK here…

…  SHIA LaBEOUF reprises his role as Sam Witwicky, with MEGAN FOX as his (pretty excuse-for-a) girlfriend (who mainly seems to be along as a “companion”). The roles of his parents are pretty superfluous, the way they’re scripted…

…  RAMON RODRIGUEZ plays his new college roommate Leo. As time goes on, it gets somewhat TIRING that the parents, Leo, JOHN TURTURRO as Agent Simmons, & JOSH DUHAMEL as Major Lennox, are almost always in a “HYPER” mode…

…  The Transformer robots are the usual FINELY-done ILM special effects, and there are far more of them in this sequel than in the original. You’ll find a good deal of HUMOR in the patter between the characters…

…  The furor over the “Hip-Hop” type of talking between two Autobots is way overdone (as is the frantic pacing of the film).  But, overall, it’s a FUN “popcorn” flick, & you shouldn’t expect any more out of it than that.
