Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
I went to "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" last night.  I went in fully expecting $12 worth of pretty explosions and otherwise completely sucktastic.  I had seen the first movie and it was completely and utterly deplorable--but it was ok, because they made up for it by making it so loud that your brain turned to jelly, so you didn't notice the black-hole level of suck.

I was actually very, very surprised--pleasantly so.

Sure, there were some bits that made utterly no sense.  But, ignoring those, the movie was far more consistent than its predecessor and immensely more so than I had expected.  As to the acting...well, obviously the robots were completely one-dimensional and, in at least a couple were nastily racist.  Both Shia LaBoeuf and Megan Fox did a decent job.  Most of all what it was was funny--sometimes even intentionally.  I was laughing almost all the time.

I think I would even see it again.

So, is it really a great big expensive art film?
