The worst summer in recent memory continues as Michael Bay brings his slow push-ins and Lazy Susan dolly shots back to the cineplex with Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (hereafter Transformers 2), the ugliest, most hateful, most simple-minded and incomprehensible assault on art and decency since the last Michael Bay movie...
Walter Chaw
I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt, this Walter Chaw fellow is a complete retard. Why the hell would you go see a Michael Bay film, if you don't like Michael Bay? Michael Bay films suck. I don't like Michael Bay, I don't go see his films, and I live happily ever after. Walter Chaw is a retard if he was expecting anything more than more of the same. Pointlessness and explosions. It tickles the fancy of some, and it just pisses others off.
Mr. Chaw obviously fits into the later category, so seriously? Why is he even watching, let alone reviewing this film? Let's say I absolutely hate sci-fi of all sorts with an extreme passion, and I am sent to review sci-fi films. You can guess my reviews would always be rather negative and biased against the sci-fi films I am reviewing. They would be useless to sci-fi fans who want to know if the movie is worth a watch or not. And it would essentially be worthless to other sci-fi haters, though they would probably get off on it and enjoy it, not because it is informing them of anything, but because it is bashing something they enjoy bashing.
Anyone who reads through Mr. Chaw's entire review is just wasting their time, unless they only desire to caress themselves while getting off on his hatred of this film. The first paragraph where he admits to hating Michael Bay and this film is all that is needed.
Also, I am getting really irritated with people calling bad movies an insult to the art of film making. There have always been bad movies, there will always be bad movies. Shall we get grossly offended everytime a 7 year old pulls out his water colors and paints an absolutely awful drawing? It's an insult to art! Poor Van Gogh is rolling in his grave right now! Clearly, seven year olds should not be allowed to paint! And lousy directors should not be allowed to make movies, even when those movies are what the masses demand and for some reason find very entertaining. Que sera sera. The fact that McDonald's exists is absolutely no determent to fine dining.
