Since a film critic hates it, the movie must be pretty good. I might go watch it.

I’m sorry it’s not your cup of tea dear boy, but we barbarians will somehow manage.

A key sequence in this musclebound sequel illustrates Bays size-queen philosophy. One behemoth of a vehicle starts to change into a robot, bolts on a concrete mixer and a few outlying trucks, and they all whirr and clank upwards to form an uber-uber-uber-robot, a Godzilla of robots
This reviewer is the one who is dumb.
That's Devestator and has been part of the Transformers universe for more than 25 years.

The critic talks like every film should be Citizen Kane but someone should tell this elitist fool, it’s a summer movie..it’s supposed to be big. I will watch it because everyone knows what they’re paying for..robots and half-naked Megan Fox.
To: Steelfish
So the reviewer is saying it's not very realistic. THANKS FOR SPOILING IT, you creep.
Now it will probably seem like some inane piece of summer entertainment fluff, instead of the thoughtful documentary I'd been expecting after seeing the trailers.
Sheeeeeeesh!!

"The critic talks like every film should be Citizen Kane"I was forced to watch that movie for a class in college. I hated every minute of it.
"its a summer movie."
Exactly. Summer movies aren't made to be cinematic masterpieces. They are 'fun' movies.

Wow.
At the very least this reviewer could have done is to investigate the transformers so as to not come off as some stuck up movie critic who doesn’t know that the contructicons do latch on to each other and the matrix of leadership is a key(although it sounds like it isn’t part of Optimus Prime) instead of claiming as if they are some machination of Bey’s imagination.

Yep. That’s why I hate movie critics. They get a free DVD to watch, type their “review”, try to sound “intelligent’ and get paid for it. It’s a bull-sh*t job.

She’s trailer park trash. The tats are the dead give away.

Damn I thought the movie was a documentary. You mean to tell me the transformers are fake? Damn, all of this time I assumed they were real. Gosh, my dreams have been crushed, this is nothing but fiction.....

I agree. If the critics love it, I avoid it like the plague.

I agree. If the critics love it, I avoid it like the plague. For example, the critics just loved Brokeback Mountain. I can think of nothing I would less like to watch than a bro-mance between two sheep herding rump rangers.

I’d hit it. That is, if I weren’t married. (Mrs. BoT might object.)

You could always watch “An Inconvenient Truth” while hitting yourself in the head with a hammer. (Hint, use the blunt end, the claws make you so bloody that you have to stop the movie just to sop up the mess.)

Hope you're not in fly-over country, my friend. She called for all the racist, bible loving rednecks in middle America to be exterminated.
She might be good for eye candy, but she won't get a dime of my family's money.
Becasue of her, we're missing this film.
