watched the movie today, it was exactly what i expected. i want to see robots beating the **** of of each other, and i got exactly that (much better fights than the first movie). what i do agree with on all the negative reviews though is the length, they could have easily taken out 30 minutes from the runtime and the movie would have been better for it. that stupid new nerd sidekick could have been removed completely, as could have the presidential whipping boy. the whole long distance relationship stuff could have been cut as well
i was also quite disappointed in how Devastator was used, for being the biggest, baddest Transformer he should have been so much more. i actually said to my buddy when those two twin bots were climbing and beating on Devastator that it was like the Ewoks all over again
overall though i was entertained, they've stayed close enough to the source material for my liking and seeing Megatron run away from Optimus like a little bitch was great
