David commended the special effects and action scenes, saying everything is bigger and better than the first, but Bay has neglected the screenplay. He went on to say he believes Bay simply "gave up on plot after the first film". He also wasn't impressed with a lot of the acting and "annoying" characters like Sam's parents. What interested me was he applauded John Turtorro as the best actor, considering myself and many others have felt his was the weakest performance with his hammy acting.

Margaret pretty much agreed with everything David said. She also went on to say she became quite the Optimus Prime fan after the first film and that he is the best character, however a main letdown for RotF was they took the best character and barely used him for half the film, thus having to rely on lesser characters and the lame attempt of a plot.

Overall, I'd have to agree with most of what they said.



Margaret - 2/5
David - 2.5/5
