Editorial Review:
One of the most popular, thrill-packed, franchises of all time is back with even more action and more Autobots and Decepticons! In the highly anticipated Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Decepticon forces return to Earth on a mission to take Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) prisoner, after the young hero learns the truth about the ancient origins of the Transformers. Joining the mission to product humankind is Optimus Prime, who forms an alliance with international armies for a second epic battle.
Description of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (Two-Disc Special Edition):
Pure. Popcorn. Entertainment. That's an exact classification of director Michael Bay's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Think of Transformers 1 on crack. In other words, this sequel took all of the extreme elements that made fans love the first movie and increased them exponentially. The action is nonstop, with battles and explosions from start to finish. The camera (without any subtlety) exploits Megan Fox's hotness to the max. As if she weren't enough, a new sex kitten (Isabel Lucas) is thrown into the equation. Shia LaBeouf is as charismatic as ever, and fills the starring role with ease. And then there's the humor. Sam's parents (Kevin Dunn and Julie White)provided some semi-raunchy laugh-out-loud moments in the first movie, but now they take it to the next level. Sometimes it seems like they are trying a little too hard, but it is still hilarious.
As far as the “plot” goes, the writers didn't waste much time--it's really just a context for the giant-robot death matches and dramatic slow-mo sequences. The movie kicks off two years later where the Autobots have formed an alliance with the U.S. government, creating an elite team led by Major Lennox (Josh Duhamel), in an effort to snuff out any remaining Decepticons that show up. The bad guys keep coming, and it turns out that a much more menacing force than Megatron is out there--and it is looking for something on Earth that is tied to the very origin of the Transformers race. Fans of the franchise will be delighted by the addition of many new robot characters (there are well over 40 in the sequel, versus only 13 in the first). The second Transformers has shaped up to be one of the worst reviewed and most successful movies of all time. This strange pairing is really just an indication that this movie has one purpose: to entertain. The creators didn't want to waste time bogging down the action and drama with substance--which was arguably a good decision. --Jordan Thompson

Great product, as expected. 
2009-12-02 - Received item in timely manner, it was what I expected. Pleasure doing business. Thanks.
super action 
2009-12-02 - This movie was great, alot of robot action,funny at times,and the actors were supherb in their acting. There was alot of detail put into this movie, and the colors were so vivid.Would reccommend to buy.
Great action but weak storyline 
2009-12-02 - This movie had a lot of scenes that have been completely removed. There are characters that can be completely removed from the movie since they don't realy play any meaningful roll in the movie.
With that said, the action scenes were great in this movie. The action and fights were a lot easier to follow then the first transformers movie.
If you are a transformers fan I would reccomend this movie. If you are an action movie fan you will like most of the movie. If you are looking for the movie of the year that is very well rounded like the first movie don't get this movie, you will be disappointed.
You ruined Soundwave!!! 
2009-12-01 - I was bummed when I heard my favorite Transformer from my childhood wasn't going to be in the first movie.
But then I heard Soundwave would be in the sequel and not only that but Frank Welker, the man himself would voice Soundwave.
I was SO psyched.
Then when Soundwave makes his grand appearance.....HE SOUNDS JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHER DECEPTACONS!!!
Gravely voiced,generic, etc...
Yeah he looked good, but HOW can you ruin the voice?
I hate you Bay!!!
You suck!!!
So did the rest of the movie.
The FX were fine but once again you can't tell one robot from the other.
I've forced myself to watch this movie three, yes THREE times and it gets worse the more you see it.
Do I recommend this?
If you've had half a dozen drinks, then maybe.
I usually tell everyone what I liked and disliked so here goes.
I liked. The FX and the scene in Petra Jordan.
That's it.
The story, the acting, everything else stunk.
Did I mention they ruined Soundwave's voice???
I hate you Bay!!!
Revenge of the Fallen????
Recommended?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAVOID!!!!!
This movie sucks
2009-12-01 - This movie sucks donkey. His parents argued so much and cursed which to me was really unnecessary. To me, it was like sexual tension. The movie showed his dog(s) humping, again being unnecessary. I couldn't tell who was the bad/good guys. The twin transformers were annoying as Jar Jar was to Star Wars. Some transformers were quite 'urban.' By that I mean that they acted black. Don't buy this movie.
