A far cry from the first film, Transformers 2 boasts more action, more special effects but less semblance of plot and even sci-fi plausability that results in a much less entertaining film for the audience. The content is occasionally comedic, frequently crude (needlessly) and frantic without making much sense or bothering to explain the purpose. Whomever thought it was a good idea to include repeated humping and robot sexuality jokes was wrong. Still, the film looks fantastic, although too often the frantic zoomed-in shots on robot combat end up being completely incomprehensible as you can't tell what "body parts" are being clobbered. Worth seeing, but only at matinee prices. Hopefully the studio will fix what's broken for round 3!
Star Trek by J.J. Abrams is a masterpiece to behold. Any fears that the shadows cast by the original cast would be too big for the new actors to fill are laid to rest quickly. Abrams wisely defers respectfully in acknowledgement of the existing Trek universe. The result is a film set to stun that even the most diehard Klingon-speaking fan should be ashamed to ignore!
Abrams and Co. put this Enterprise on a new course with a classic premise: to boldly go where no man has gone before. Not only is this the best Star Trek movie ever made, it's also likely to warp its way into the upper echelon, landing itself on top-10 lists of the best Sci-Fi films ever.
