I saw it last night and I would agree with Prince Adam. It was a great movie, but the Language, the twins, and some other stuff could have been left out. My family went for my brothers birthday and I cringed a couple of times hoping that my nieces and nephews didn't catch what was going on. That being said, I liked it and thought it was a great movie, but for the most part, I liked the first one better.

Oh! my bad.. but regadless, they did look almost identical (well except Sideways altmode, but I just figured it was Barricade in another "car" mode... like Bee was first this crappy camaro and then a brand new later).

So whre was Barricade?.. I mean even Skorponok made a last minute appearance to get killed by Treebeard... I mean Jetfire...

It was a great sequel, with an out-of-the-ordinary-TF-canon storyline. The "Species" thing was a logical infiltration idea, but very ripped-off and almost felt a little "Terminator 3" (ugh). Megan Fox must've gotten paid more than Shia (anyone wanna total their screen times?). And for PG-13, I expected cleaner language and less tongues. Props for keeping Megan and Shia's scenes clean (dare I say "romantic"?). The "twins" were annoying to me, but my kid loved them. Preteens who text/chat a lot on the 'Net probably relate to them.

One thing bothers me a bit: they seem to create new robots just to kill them off. I know war is hell, but they come off very disposable. Except Prime, Megatron, and Starscream (maybe?). Loved old man Aussie Jetfire, and his sacrifice was totally worth it.

I don't know, I would have liked to see Devastator eat the twins. Wishful thinking, just like wanting to see someone kill JarJar in Star Wars. :(

A Real G.I.JOE Movie: there is the W.H.A.L.E, the Flagg, the Patriot Grizzly, etc.... ;)

Me too. Just one; you can leave the other. But you can bet they'll be back in all their Spongebob glory when part 3 comes around. And a few more cannon-fodder-bots.

The critics ripped this one apart. They don't quite understand how Michael Bay produced a very good 1st movie then went backwards w/ the 2nd one. They said the 'humor' was very poor, the story was missing, etc etc.

Yeah, but its already been proven that the critics are "socially retarded anal-retentive developmentally arrested proto-adolescents with hostility issues"... so who cares what they think, it was a good movie. Plain and simple.
