The most highly anticipated summer release of 2009 is the upcoming Michael Bay film Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.
Starring Shia Laboeuf, Megan Fox, and a few oversized robots, Transformers 2 will undoubtedly be a blockbuster hit. If the success of the first movie (domestically and overseas) is any indication, this movie will bring in close to a billion dollars and entertain millions of people the world over.
In Transformers 2, Sam Witwicki (Laboeuf) goes to college, still maintaining his relationship with the beautiful Mikaela (Fox), and soon gets pulled into a battle for the universe pitting Decepticon forces against his old buddy from the first movie, Optimus Prime, and his crew of metallic warriors.
It sounds a little overblown and unrealistic, but the special effects and overall action of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen make this movie so entertaining and enjoyable that any doubts you have going into the theater are swept away in the first few minutes.
Check out this Transformers 2 fan site, where you can find a ton of information about this upcoming movie.
Transformers is an in your face adrenaline-filled thrill ride, but there is also a great comedy element that comes from the relationship between Sam and Optimus Prime. One of the nice surprises of the first film was the funny scenes between Sam and his father--especially the scene where Sam has to hide Optimus from his father.
Another thing I like about the Transformers franchise is that you get your money's worth. This movie will definitely let you escape from your daily life for a couple hours and enjoy a larger than life story about a young man trying to deal with his first romantic relationship and his college career--not to mention an intergalactic battle involving enormous alien robots.
