The movie i think was amazing its what the audience was looking for and expected. Although i agree that the story was weaker, i think it was just more deep which made it hard to understand . I was also surprised that the decepticons did not win i thought it was suppose to be their rise in power and they ended up getting wooped anyway. But all that aside the movie was just as eye catching as the first and way more action packed. It was overall good and i liked that they kept the story in line with the original series (for the most part)
