Transformers 2 - Revenge of the Fallen....

Today is Youth Day, a school holiday, so did not go to school today. Went to catch TF2 - ROTF instead, at Downtown East... Very small screen, but still did not help much in seeing the fast pace robots in motion clearly.... very long show, 2 hours 20 mins approx... How is the show? ... Hmm... Not very good... Editing ( 剪接 ) illogical, eg. day 1 moment & night at the other, suddenly up & running after getting bumped hard falling, Aerospace museum surrounding can suddenly become desert-like... And shouldn't China's police be known as 公安 instead of 警察?... Anyway, try hard to just enjoy the show... Violent Optimus Prime, like gangster head... with gangsters also violent, eg. Sideswipe... Suddenly appear a lot of unidentified Decepticons to gang-bash Optimus... Suddenly Decepticons become weaklings, getting killed easily... suddenly Optimus Prime becomes extremely powerful ("powers (you) cannot imagine", according to Jetfire in the movie) after taking and putting on the dead Jetfire's parts, and kills the bad-ass villain the Fallen (even with Megatron and Starscream helping the Fallen) in a couple of mins... Wah lau.... why like that... In short, no good building up of plot, illogical story line, poor characters persona and characteristics (for most), extremely fast climax and end of climax, and a very sloppy, chop chop ending... Any good points? Ermmm.... vehicles/appliances/human that can become robots? The crazy mother of Sam Witwicky, who is always crazy, with or without eating the drugged cookies? Idiotic robot twins who acts like Dumb and Dumber? The revealing Mikaela (not sure of the spelling) whom some says is hot, but I think is she feeling hot and don't feel like wearing clothes (thought she very man-like with the thick facial features, eg. eyebrows so thick....)? I don't know.... A good film for people who likes fast-paced action, and recommended for hard-core TF Fans... but if you are a half-half, then .... still go and watch lah, decide for yourself...

Bumped into some students in Downtown East, before and after the show... and even after going to Tampines Mart after the show still bumped into one... sigh... maybe should keep out of east side...
