Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen

Am I being punished? Did I do something horrifically wrong to deserve the two and half hours of pun-intendeds? I was under the impression that super-high budget movies weren't usually painfully long because it costs too much money to add that extra bomb sequence. Transformers 2 might not be the WORST movie ever made, but it is definitely in the top 10. I actually like Shia LaBoeuf...I think he's a pretty decent actor--and Megan Fox, yes, you are hot, but unfortunately, this does not equal a good movie. It doesn't even equal a movie that makes any sense! I honestly didn't know what robot was bad or good because it was just a solid clash of metal 90% of the time. I cannot even put into words just how bad the script was--can I even call it a script? From what I remember from my screenwriting classes, I am pretty sure every rule of "writing a decent movie" was unsurprisingly broken. I don't know why I care, I wasn't expecting "Casablanca," but a decent action flick isn't that hard to reproduce. I blame you, Michael Bay. You are Satan's gift to filmmaking, but for some reason, the public (including myself) are dumb enough to buy your tickets, so who am I to judge?

Oh, and I DO believe this was the first film that named Barrack Obama as our sitting president. I can see him now in the Oval Office, vomiting at the sound of his name into a 24-carat gold trash can.
