I went to see Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen not expecting anything. The movie starts off great and keeps going for about an hour and a half. After that, it begins to drag and I started wondering when is this movie is going to end, but for the last 15 to 20 minutes it picked up again. There is a lot of action and comic relief. As for taking the kiddies, I'd hold off, unless they're above the age of 13, due to language & some mild adult situations. I definitely would recommend this movie to friends and family, but it MUST be seen in IMAX to get the full experience.
