Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen [M]

When the Transformers came to Earth to find the All Spark, it was thought that that was the first time the two worlds had met. This was wrong. Centuries ago there was an epic battle over a machine that creates energy by destroying suns. The Primes were the creators of this machine and one of them, known as The Fallen, betrayed his brothers and planned to use the machine to destroy the human race. Centuries later, The Fallen is strengthening and Sam Witwicky holds the key to finding the machine. Can the Autobots find it before the Deceptecons? 

I thought the first film was action-packed, but this one… holy freaking shit! Powered by its mind-blowing special effects and epic battle scenes, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is a science fiction film of epic proportions. Absolutely fantastic. 

When the Transformers came to Earth looking for the All Spark, it was thought that this was the first time the two races had encountered one another. This was wrong. Centuries ago there was an epic battle on Earth over a machine that created energy by destroying suns. The Primes were the creators of this machine and one of them, known as The Fallen, betrayed his brothers and planned to use the machine to destroy the human race, which he despised so much. Centuries later, The Fallen is regaining his strength and Sam Witwicky holds the key to finding the machine, which the Primes had hidden from their treacherous brother. Can Sam and the Autobots reach the machine before the Deceptecons? 

I think what was most amazing about this movie was the battle sequences between the Transformers. We’ve seen how violent and bloody warfare can be and this movie conveys the same gruesomeness and violence of war when the Transformers are battling one another. It personifies the characters in a sense, really showing us that they are not that dissimilar to humans and not just relying on the script. It actually got rather grim and gory. 

All our favourite characters are back as well as a few new ones that keep us in the here and now with they’re particular way of speaking. I particularly find the gangster twins very enjoyable. 

Starring Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Ramon Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Josh Duhamel, John Turturro, Kevin Dunn, Julie White, Isabel Lucas, and featuring the voice talents of Peter Cullen, Mark Ryan, Reno Wilson, Robert Foxworth, Michael York, Charles Adler, Tom Kenny, and Hugo Weaving, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen was a fantastic film filled with violence, action, romance, comedy, suspense, breakdowns, breakups, warfare, and everything in between. 

More rollicking than the first with more memorable characters and more amazing robotic creations, it’s a film you don’t want to miss.
