Love it or hate it. Seems there ain't now in between. For the post nazis:

Love it means you liked it/enjoyed the experience

Hate i means you didn't like it/would recommend it to others

Still waiting to see it. I actually had planned to, but all of the vitriolic reviews and posts have made me reconsider. I probably will see it some time, but now I may just wait for it to appear on Netflix.

EDIT: Oh yeah, this was supposed to be my way of saying there should have been an obligatory Gaz option so that I could easily see the results without voting and skewing the numbers.

Don't get me wrong, I like Gaz. He was great, but he's gone. IMO the obligatory gaz option should be a Jim option. He was more of a contributor.

It was really good, long, but really good.

It was a michael bay action film. It lived up to his standards.

Sure-Oz · 06-29-2009, 07:35 AM

I'd recommend as a rent only...if they come out with a third one i don't know if ill see it in theaters. loved the 1st one!

**Buehler445** · 06-29-2009, 11:37 AM

I paid $15 for an IMAX ticket and thought it was worth the money. The plot is thin, but I expected it.

It's pretty consistent with the first one except on a larger scale/budget.

**007** · 06-29-2009, 11:45 AM

So does "not planning to spend the money on it" count as "hate it"?

**Buehler445** · 06-29-2009, 11:50 AM

I think it is meant for people that have seen it?

Sure-Oz · 06-29-2009, 11:53 AM

The movie is great looking on IMAX, with the robots on screen and the explosions/fighting...it is probably the only way to see this movie.

Sure-Oz · 06-30-2009, 07:28 AM

So only 13 people on the board have seen it?

Micjones · 06-30-2009, 08:05 AM

Loved it.
Critics have been entirely too hard on Bay and this film.
It's not intended to be Citizen Kane. There is something poetic and highly artistic about what Bay does...it's just visual. Looks like 3's on the way in 2011.

**Tribal Warfare** · 06-30-2009, 08:13 AM

It was ****in badass a I would definitely recommend this for a great Summer popcorn movie

meStevo · 06-30-2009, 07:50 PM

Short of having a nice home theater, anyone who remotely liked the first is robbing themselves of a good night of robots fighting each other on the big screen if they pass because of reviews/word of mouth.
