Pentukar 2... The Verdict!
The story begins with a backdrop sketch that projects how Transformers were here a long time ago,before civilization.Right after that, the story picks up 2 years after the first one, with the Autobots still on earth working for a highly classified military organisation, NEST. Secretly a war wages between the ever expanding Decepticons(dunno how and why) and NEST.Clearly this movie introduces many new Transfromers characters including idiotic twins Skids and Mudflaps, ice cool Sideswipe, Arcee and Ol' Jetfire.There are like more than a dozen Decepticon additions, mostly unnamed.
Anyways...
Our hero Sam witwicky is taking a step into his college life,promising not to cheat on his ridiculously hot girlfriend, Mikaela.Before leaving Sam finds a fragment of the Allspark in his shirt and accidently triggers its powers,passing all its knowledge to Sam.Sam passes the fragment to Mikaela for safekeeping.A remote-control car decepticon(Wheelie) tries to steal the fragment form Mikaela and gets captured.
Soundwave, a Decepticon inteligence officer, violates a US satellite to recon on NEST and discovers the location of the remaining shard of the Allspark and dead Megatron.The shard was retrieved and Megatron was resurrected and was instructed by his master, The Fallen, to capture Sam. With Sam sucessfully captured, The Doctor tries to extract Sam's brain but right in the nick of time, Sam was rescued by Optimus and Bumblebee.n the following battle, Optimus takes on the Decepticons on his own, killing Grindor, however, he is ultimately killed himself, stabbed from behind by Megatron.
Megatron orders a full-scale assault on the planet. The Fallen speaks to the world and advises them to surrender Sam to the Decepticons or they'll continue their attack. Sam's parents are captured by Rampage. Sam, Mikaela, Leo, Bumblebee, the twins and Wheelie regroup, Leo believing his online rival "RoboWarrior" may be of assistance. The man is revealed to be former Sector Seven agent Simmons. Simmons reveals his hidden alien archive and explains that the Transformers have visited Earth before, as their language is written on ruins all over the world. Wheelie identifies the language as that of the Primes but only a Seeker can translate it; Seekers being used by the Primes to locate suitable stars for harvesting. They find such a Seeker, a former Decepticon named Jetfire, who Sam is able to revive using the second shard.
Upon learning the situation, Jetfire teleports the group to Egypt via a space bridge and explains that the tomb of the Primes is located in the surrounding desert, and only a Prime can kill the Fallen. He then stays behind to allow them to find it. By following the clues, the group find the Matrix in a tomb in the ancient city of Petra, but it crumbles to dust in Sam's hands. Believing the Matrix can still revive Optimus, Sam collects the dust and instructs Simmons to telephone Major William Lennox to bring the other Autobots and Optimus's body.
The military arrives in short order, but are tracked by the Decepticons, resulting in an intense battle. During the battle, Bumblebee rescues Sam's parents from Rampage, killing both him and Ravage in the process.Devastator is then formed and unearths the Sun Harvester in one of Egypt's pyramids before being blown to pieces by a railgun fired from a nearby destroyer called in by Simmons. Jetfire arrives in time to save the group from Mixmaster, slicing the Decepticon in two. He is then attacked by Scorponok from beneath the ground and badly damaged but manages to crush and kill Scorponok. The air force carpet bombs the Decepticons. Megatron gets through the carpet bombing and kills Sam. In a vision, Sam meets with the other Primes, who tell him that the Matrix of Leadership must be earned, which Sam has done. Sam is brought back to life and the Matrix reforms from the dust. Sam uses it to revive Optimus, but the Fallen, with aid from Megatron, steals it shortly thereafter to activate the Sun Harvester. The human military tries to stop him but are powerless against him. Jetfire, having been mortally wounded by Scorponok, gives up his life and parts to give Optimus the strength he needs to defeat the Fallen. Optimus destroys the Sun Harvester and then fights both Megatron and the Fallen, brutally destroying the Fallen, and Optimus claiming that "I rise, you fall". And leaving Megatron heavily wounded. Starscream convinces Megatron to retreat.
The film concludes with Optimus stating that the Transformers and humans are now connected by their histories and Sam returning to college.
Personally, I'd give this movie a 6.5 out of 10 for the superb animation and graphics, well hate the fact that the Transformers are poorly introduced and oddly though theres like a "Power Nerfing" among the Transformers.For example in the first movie Optimus was usually bullied by Megatron in a one on one fight but oddly enough this one pictures Optimus fighting 3 Decepticons and easily killing Blackout and crippling Starscream.The constructicons.OMG I mean Megatron can take in so much of punishment from the US military firearms and Devavtator goes one in a single missle.WTF?? There was also this Autobot character which had barely any airing time, Jolt.I mean whats the point of even having him there if you'd only see him for that simple 2 seconds??(the scene where Jetfire combines with Optimus, there was a Transformer that links Optimus and Jetfire with an electric whip).
Final verdict : wanna add new characters? INTRODUCE THEM PROPERLY.AND IN GAMES THERES SUCH A THING CALLED "BALANCING" OPTIMUS IS JUST TOO IMBALANCED
