TK reviews 'Transformers Revenge of the Fallen'

Well ladies and gents, I'm just going to get right to the point. This movie blew me out of the water. I can honestly say it's the single greatest action and I stress action movie I've ever seen. The fight scenes in the first Transformers were few and far between but in this movie it was non stop laugh fights and you know what it all just worked.

Director Michael Bay was on top of his game and the details and attention that went into the robots this time around really shows as well. The robots looked so sharp and crisp it was amazing to see on the big screen, oh and Megan Fox was there as well. But lets get back on track here.


Transformers ROTF, just hits the ground running and really never slows down. This time around the Autobots led by Optimus Prime are working together with humans in an organization called NEST. They are going all over the globe to eliminate all decepticons who still remain and are hiding until the time to show themselves comes. So as Optimus and Iron Hide are about to take out a decepticon, the robot informs him that the Fallen shall rise again.


From here on out it's a fight against time as some of the decepticons are awoken by the Fallen from outer space and inform them to go get Megatron. Megatron is awoken by this small group and together they go out and make their cause and their presence known globally. Along the way tragedy befalls the Autobots and Sam and Mikaela's relationship suffers some setbacks along the way.



It is up to Sam and company along with some help from some familiar faces and new ones to save the planet before the Fallen and the rest of the bad guys take over the world and our existence ceases to exist. This movie takes us all over the globe and the story line really flows well from start to finish.

The action though is second to none and is the driving force behind the movie. The fights are so well drawn out and perfected it is just perfect, that's all I can say. I know I sound like a broken record but the fights rule. There are three versus one and group fights and everything in between.

This is what a summer blockbuster is all about and Transformers Revenge of the Fallen takes it to a completely new level. The acting and story are better in this film then the original and the action is unlike I've ever seen on the big screen. Michael Bay and company leave us with a great feeling and the movie will kick your ass but only in a good robot sort of way.

TK's take- 5/5 stars... A MUST SEE SUMMER BLOCKBUSTER!
