SYNOPSIS
Sam (Shia LaBeouf) is now engaged to Mikaela (Megan Fox) and is about to leave for college, while the Autobots led by Optimus Prime cooperate with humans to hunt last Decepticons from the planet. Everything seems to spin smoothly, except that Sam is in his old clothes and a splinter dell'Allspark strange movements of the Decepticons portend the return of an old enemy, perhaps more fearful of that Megatron, leader of the Decepticons killed and buried at the bottom ocean. Perhaps it is that The Fallen is coming back to reclaim what is his ...
REVIEW
Directed by Michael Bay is felt heavily in the second chapter, even more than the first. The result is a film and fracassone tamarro, pushed beyond all limits with the action, the rapid assembly of a typical American film, the humor, dozens of robots in battle, spectacular transformation. Overall, a typical summer blockbuster action filled with stunning visual effects in CG. Ideal for those who want to switch off and enjoy two hours of great action.
Perhaps this is the defect worst and the greatest value of the film. If the action leaves no ceasefire and continues to urge the viewer, such as tolling the story is easily lost in a chase and an explosion. Who are affected but the human characters in the film, Sam and Mikaela above all, reduced to almost monotonous figures in the background of the epic clash of alien forces. Or almost completely obscured the secondary characters like the soldiers led by Major Lennox and many Autobot and Decepticon who appeared in the very first episode.
Honorable mention to John Turturro as Agent Simmons of the first movie back here, and sbiellato more overwhelming than ever! Some of the most successful comedians are his own.
Technical Departments at the top for this film, even more than the first! The CG is at the highest levels, with rendering and animation of the giants of steel and blend perfectly with the scenes of live-action sequences and absolutely spectacular. Another indication for the soundtrack, arranged and corrected by Linkin Park, composers and performers including the theme song of the movie ("New Divide") that occurs in the full credits.
Overall, a good Filmon for the evening, maybe with friends to watch a bevendosi Cola and ice without demanding serious dialogues and stories from the stratosphere.
