Transformers Revenge of the Fallen (ROTF) movie

With the recent hype about the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen (ROTF) movie and its toyline, what is collecting the ROTF toys without watching the actual movie itself right?  Well, despite a lot of critical reviews about the ROTF movie, overall I found it awesome!  It was adrenalin rush all the way, with some breather moments in between the action-packed scenes.  I will definitely get its DVD eventually!

My movie companion who’s a non-Transformers fan, didn’t find the plot or multiple robot characters confusing.  Basically you just need to focus on the key characters and ignore the minor ones like the ‘foot soldiers’ type of Decepticons.  A friend felt that it would have be more ideal if the Constructicons suffered an initial defeat first, before combining to form Devastator to counter attack the good guys.  Good point there.  They can in fact re-edit and re-arrange the sequences of the relevant scenes to achieve this.

Anyway, if you can accept a storyline about giant alien robots coming to fight their war on our planet earth, you can live with the ‘loopholes’ pointed out by so many fans, reviewers and critics.  It’s just a movie for our entertainment for goodness’ sake!  I look forward to the 3rd Transformers live action movie promised to us around 3 years from now!
