Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, a review by addicted2dvd

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
The battle for Earth continues in this action-packed blockbuster from director Michael Bay and executive producer Steven Spielberg. When college-bound Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) learns the truth about the ancient origins of the Transformers, he must accept his destiny and join Optimus Prime and Bumblebee in their epic battle against the Decepticons, who have returned stronger than ever with a plan to destroy our world.

My Thoughts:
Well... part of me loved it. And part of me was a little on the disappointed side, I loved all the action and battle scenes. And there was definitely plenty of them!  But... for me at least... it went a little downhill compared to the first one. Besides the action.... the first one had me literally laughing out loud on some of the scenes. But this one... even though they seemed to try to put a few laughs in it... it just didn't work for me. I didn't have a single laugh in this movie! Megan Fox was definitely still drool worthy.. and I did like the storyline of Sam trying to get on with his life and go to college. The length of the movie was a bit much as well. But over-all I still enjoyed it and do plan on adding it to my collection eventually. But I will wait for a decent price. Will probably wait till I can get it for $10 or under. I think if you really enjoyed the first one... you will want to check this one out as well.

My Thoughts:
This is one I haven't watched in quite some time. According to DVD Profiler I haven't watched it in 7 years. This is one that I enjoyed quite a bit. I think both Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan did a great job in this movie. I also got a kick out of seeing Jean Stapleton in something other then All in the Family. The story, while enjoyable, isn't a "ha-ha" type funny. More of a lighthearted look at a budding romance coming from the last place you would expect (for the character that is).

A wonderful story about angel-like creatures - with beautiful animation work.
A girl finds herself, after having some strange dream, coming out of a cocoon with small wings on her back. She has lost all memories of her previous life and now must find out what it means to be a "Haibane" (this is how these creatures are called).
