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.
