Kinda heavy on the swearing, compared to the first movie. Also, they have got to stop "hiding" the action. For example, when Ironhide first transformed, it was so fast and unclear even though it took like 15 seconds. And the fight scenes are always kind of short and skewered by trees, pillars, walls, etc. The camera is always in the wrong place.

But other than that, I thought the movie was awesome. The "FATALITY"s or Finishing Moves were killer. Optimus Prime is FREAKING BADASS. The Corvette was sexy, the "Z28" Bumblebee was awesome, and overall, it's very enjoyable. Go see it
I agree with the hiding the action part. WTH! Back off of them a little bit so I can see what's going on. I'm watching a fight with two twenty foot robots from three feet away! That's like putting a 70" widescreen in a room that is a 7' X7'! It just drives ya nuts. I am also happy the Optimus wasn't a wimp like he was in the first movie! That really ticked me off.
