High voltage “The main event of cinema in recent years” and “the most important blockbuster of the year” – that’s how a fan of action and creativity of Michael Bay should in a few words describe “Transformers-2”. The coolest, the most spectacular, the most ambitious - all this is him. It is difficult even to imagine something even more impressive in terms of action, in which there are practically no equals to Bay.
The film not only combines all the entertainment of the previous works of the director, but is also filled with quotes from them, references, scenes referring to the early works of Bay. And also endowed with some chips in the address of other representatives of fiction.
Having a fairly simple plot, the general concept of which will be predictable to almost any viewer, the film came out with an incredible thermonuclear mixture of all the best of the blockbusters. On the screen unfolds a very large-scale spectacle of incredible beauty, causing one continuous delight in a storm of positive emotions. The video series is breathtaking, and the drive action does not even think to end, and only occasionally light respite is given to just digest what was previously seen.
The scope of the film is striking. Such a variety of landscapes and scenes is difficult to even imagine or recall in any other film work. The viewer is waiting for night and day battles, battles in deserts, on water and under water, on a secret base, among a beautiful and picturesque forest area, in the city and in the vastness of our vast planet. Michael Bay showed a movie of incredible scale, with many battles and fights, each of which is unique. With an abundance of robots, from a huge Devastator to a tiny Transformer fly, and all of this is very well remembered and leaves its mark, even if you do not understand the universe of transformers and do not remember the names of the characters. The color of the scenes, literally every episode, will leave a very powerful imprint in the memory. Heroes, battles, individual elements and chips, jokes of humor, excellent actors and their characters, fully revealed in the film, shown from the proper side without much delving into the melodrama or love story, while there is both meaning and kisses.
Incredibly competent combination of all so beloved and appreciated elements for fans of the genre combined in this film and brought to its maximum. An impressive chase, explosions of city buildings, the destruction of the Navy, exploding helicopters, cool beautiful cars - all that is necessary for happiness.
Raising the bar much higher, Bay made the most incredible and spectacular film of his career. And let the drama it is inferior to “Armageddon”, and the meaning and power of the scenes is far from “Island”, but as a blockbuster “Transformers-2” is the most powerful and loud event of recent years and in this regard, this is really the best film of Michael Bay. To multiple viewing is mandatory for all fans of real power and entertainment. Very high voltage, a lot of drive and adrenaline from exciting action!
