I watched Transformers 2 this week. Good movie. And I expected everything that would happen in a Michael Bay movie. Explosions. Seriously, this movie expands from the Witwicky residence in the first scene all the way to the pyramids of Egypt and I don't remember one scene in the entire movie that DIDN'T have an explosion. It's almost as if Michael Bay has OCD, he needs explosion.
If Michael Bay directed "Teletubbies: The Movie", he would replace the antene with rocket launchers and they'd probably be firing it at Sun Baby because it's an evil dictator that controls a undead S.A. army.
Here's your evil dictator.
I think the only problem with the movie is the amount of attention Michael Bay puts into the Transformers - especially when they transform. I remember watching the cartoons when I was young, and they transformed really quickly. With Michael Bay, he focuses so much on the transformation that it becomes so recurring in the movie. To make it worse, he does an annoying tracking shot around the transformer. Personally this made me dizzy because I was trying to pay attention to detail but everything was moving to fast.
I know this sounds like I'm bashing on the Transformers 2 movie, but in reality, I loved it. Just some minor flaws, cause it's much easier to point out the negative parts in movies because... I dunno, it's just much easier for me, but the explosions do make the movie a lot better. Michael Bay is perfect for the job.
