I was sufficiently entertained throughout.

Year One is much much worse.

Rolling Stone called it the worst movie of the decade?  Please, that is over-reaction.

Just because something is lower-than-expectations doesn't make it horrible.      There are much worse movies released THIS YEAR than Transformers (Dance Flick?)

Yeah, twas entertaining.

Agreed. I got what I paid for when I saw it.

The worst movie ever is Bio-Dome according to Metacritic.

I'm a Transformers fan, so maybe I'm a bit biased, but I was thoroughly entertained.
The movie only seemed to drag when the group reached Cairo, and it was a bit too long, but other than that, it was what I expected.

I was pleased with it as well.  I thought a particular fight sequence could have been longer and flashier, but to avoid spoiling anything I won't mention which one.  I would gladly recommend it to others.  I'm ready for the next one to be honest.

I knew there was a reason I didn't trust Metacritic.  How can someone hate a hilarious piece of awesomeness like Bio-Dome?

Also, worst movie of the DECADE?  Man, he must have missed this:

@sidescroller:

Someone actually called it the worst movie of the decade?  That's ludicrous.  It's not even the worst movie of the month.  That person must not have seen that trainwreck Land of the Lost.

As a person who HAS seen Bio-Dome, I support Catwoman as "Worst Movie" as well.

As someone else said, I might be a bit biased as a Transformers fan who liked the first film a lot, but I was quite pleased with Revenge of the Fallen (some HORRIBLE jokes aside).

If you expect to see more than huge robots fighting, you WILL be disappointed. But if you're into Optimus Prime jackin' other bots up, then you'll enjoy the movie, I'd say.

Here is that atrocious review. Worst movie of the decade? Not even close.

I liked it. I could nitpick all day but it wouldn't change the enjoyment I got out of it. Almost everything now is supposedly garbage because peoples movie expectations are sky high and go into every movie expecting a oscar winning drama.

I wasn't a huge fan.  I could enjoy the raucous battle scenes and ludicrous explosions, but the length was a little tiring and I feel like I'm done with getting enjoyment out of humour as lowbrow as that movie's was.

It's not the worst of the decade (Son of the Mask still has that spot), but the worst so far this year definitely.

These two didn't help the movie at all. Worst CG character since Jar Jar, which I thought was thoroughly impossible. 

As for worst movie ever, no Transformers Revenge of the Fallen does not get the privilege of that claim. "Stupidest movie with ludicrous budget", perhaps would be a better title, and even then it still would have stiff competition.

But for worst movie ever, my pick will forever be:



...the horror...the horror....

Sorry, but Orci and Kurtzman are the worst writers in Hollywood right now.

I can't believe there is a worse movie than Star Trek, but it's by them as well, so it must be true.

This piece of shit isn't even worth downloading.

Of course its not the worst movie ever made. Any one who makes that claim has either seen about 10 movies or they are just trying to sound important. It is a bad movie though.

Dude, Star Trek was awesome.
