Transformers 2: The $200 M Terd


Last night, Summer and I saw Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. If you checked out the reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, you probably saw that the general consensus was that it was a stupid, loud, long movie. Usually, I don't trust the critics because I'm more easily entertained than they are. However, this time they were spot on. After seeing the movie, it was crystal clear who Michael Bay's target audience is.

I've never seen or heard so many fart jokes, small creatures humping, and pointless sexuality. Suddenly, all the autobots are swearing, the mom is swearing and eating ganga brownies. Movies like The Dark Knight and IronMan show that you don't need those stupid teen movie elements to be an insanely profitable film. Michael Bay is really good at falling way short of a movie's potential. He has got to be the worst big budget director of our time. Absolutely has to be. You don't need $200 M to make a movie saturated with fart jokes and junior high humor.

Michael Bay, I am hereby officially labeling you a butt-hole.
