Bay-Hem !
Ok, I've seen it. Yeah I'm talking about Revenge of the Fallen. Didn't like it apart from the action sequences.
Potong steam list:- (spoiler alert)
1) The Humour
No, its not a name of a character or anything. Well you could imagine there is a far more elusive, more sinister evil than the Fallen. The difference is that unlike the Fallen; who f#$% things up for the Autobots, the Humour; on the other hand, f%^& the whole movie up. I'm talking about overbearing jokes which are stale and unnecessary to move the plot forward. Well I don't know about some people, if watching a pair of giant robot testicles are fun or a grown ass man stripping bare showing his buttocks is funny, then I have nothing to say.
2) The Twins
During the initial revelation about these two 'mistakes', I already had a bad feeling about it. Creating a new character which was not from the mythology is a huge thing. How dissappointed I was to see these two annoying robots materialize on screen. Bay said he did it for the kids. But with all due respect Mr. Bay, isn't all those giant robots enough to make any kid go crazy already? they don't need a mini segment of robots catered for them. You think this is McDonalds? Happy Meals? It didn't help with the wrong voice actors, depicting them, like a bunch of black teenager cum gangsta-wannabe. And these two kicked Devastators' ass? INSULT.
3) The Legendary Jetfire
How could they make a 180degree turn on this fan favourite's character and attitude? The Blackbird form got me excited. And it all went down the drain when he transformed into robot mode. Since when does Cybertron have OKU (Orang Kurang Upaya) ? they're robots!! With all their technological advancements, the best aid they can have for an 'old' robot is a walking stick? to add insult to injury, he farts too !! WOW Bay , WOW.
4) Cut and Paste Constructicons
Now this is just low man. I don't know if this was a budget issue or anything, but if you're gonna recycle the bad guys, don't use the same colour at least please. You can't have them combine and then in the next scene they're on the ground fighting the military. I mean come on Mr. Bay, you're better than this. I just cannot believe with all the time, money and film they spent on rehearsing those buttocks scene and the The Twins scene, they couldn't manage to do some decent editing on this part. Even as I put myself in a normal moviegoer's shoes, I feel that it insults my intelligence.
5) THE RAILGUN
Ok, where the hell did that come from? If a single shot is all it takes to kill Devastator, might as well ask all the Autobots to sit tight and just chill with some energon cocktail in their hands , watch the RAILGUN kill all the Decepticons!! OOOHH U.S Military is so damn cool ... WHY? WHY?
6) Soundwave
Everything else was cool about him and the writers did a good job on this one, making him a spy and intelligence person for the bad guys. But can't they at least pay homage to the fans and give him that 'voice' we've been waiting years to hear? At least synthesize it a bit. I could still tolerate the mouth if they gave that 'voice'.

I would have loved the movie more if the issues above were addressed. I will still buy the DVD for nostalgia sake. Probably would just forward the scene right up to the forrest showdown and the last scene. The middle portion of the scene would just make this grown up guy get angry again.
Holy crap, a RAIL GUN??? Seriously Bay?
