"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" hit theaters on June 24th but I only manage to watch it last Saturday. WOW!! Excellent sequel! Two thumbs up! 5 stars.. I love Steven Speilberg and Michael Bay …. Good jobs guys!


I have read few reviews on this movie on the net. I think not everyone was satisfied with the result. I am one of the millions of the Transformers fan, since 1984. I am not going to write the movie synopsis here. If you want to read the synopsis you can go here: Transformers 2 Synopsis. Or go to the nearest cinema and experience it yourself.

More robots are making their appearance - I think it was more than 20. I have to watch it again to make sure of it. Here are some of the list I get from the net.

AUTOBOTS:
  • OPTIMUS PRIME: The Autobots' leader - alternate form: Peterbilt truck.
  • IRONHIDE: Weapons specialist - GMC Topkick.
  • RATCHET: Medic - Hummer H2.
  • BUMBLEBEE: Friend and mode of transportation for Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) - 2010 Chevorlet Camaro.
  • ARCEE: A female Autobot - motorcycle.
  • JETFIRE: An older Decepticon who switches sides - SR71 Blackbird jet.
  • JOLT: the original toy was a Decepticon, but in the movie he's a good guy - Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid.
  • SKID & MUDFLAP: a.k.a. "The Twins" - Chevrolet Beat and Trax concept cars.

DECEPTICONS:
  • STARSCREAM: Formerly Megatron's second in command, he escaped at the end of the first movie (see photo); F-22 Raptor jet.
  • SCORPONOK: The mechanical scorpion that attacked the American troops in the desert.
  • THE FALLEN: One of the original Transformers, he's called "the most elemental bad guy" by the screenwriters.
  • SIDEWAYS: The Audi R8 seen crashing through a building in the trailer.
  • SOUNDWAVE: A cassette player in the original toys; his alternate mode will fly.
  • RAVAGE: A four-legged, cat-like robot.
  • THE DOCTOR: Alternate form has not been announced.
  • WHEELIE: A small, radio-controlled truck.
  • DEMOLISHER: One of the Constructicons that transform into construction vehicles.
  • DEVASTATOR: A giant robot formed by the Constructicons joining together; individually, they are: Scavenger, Scrapper, Hightower, Longhaul, Rampage, Overload and Mixmaster.

My expectation for Devastator was way out of my imagination. I was hoping it to be a more human-form but it turn out to be a beast-form with a big mouth.


Human-form Devastator


Devastator in Transformers 2

The story was a bit confusing at the first-half of the movie. But the story becomes clear after the death of Optimus Prime. I was a bit frustrated to see the scene but Optimus Prime was revived with the Matrix of Leadership. It was an excellent idea to merge Optimus Prime with JetFire (Transformers Energon) which gives more strength to Optimus Prime but JetFire was sacrificed for it.

I fond the Transformers 2 compared to the first one (more like an introduction) because the story have more focus on the robots than the human (except for the hero). Optimus Prime also shows his leadership more in this one.

Bumblebee also showed some kick ass moves on this movies!! OHH!! Very good moves indeed! For those who like Transformers and actions packed robots fightings - this one sure gives you the pleasure! Warnings: Some dirty jokes appeared in this movie so 13 PG is much too low for the viewer ratings.
