Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
The movie is basically about a battle between 2 robot races, that happens to be fought on earth and for earth. In Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, 2 years have passed since Sam Witwicky(Shia LaBeouf) and the Autobots(good robots) save the human race from the evil Decepticons. Now Sam wants to go to college, and try to live a normal life. Like any teenager going to college, he has anxieties and excitement, like separating from his parents for the first time, and promising to be a faithful boyfriend to Mikaela(Megan Fox). While in college Sam gains information about the origins of the Transformers that ties into ancient history of the earth. This is information that the Decepticons want, and the Autobots must stop them from getting. So the battle begins between the 2 forces. This is a very action packed movie that most boys 11 and up will love.

Talking Points:
Throughout all the action scenes there are some nice moments with Sam and his parents, and he’s a dedicated boyfriend.
It’s inappropriate for kids, but has a suitable rating. The film is rated PG -13(parental guidance for kids 13 and under) because of sci-fi action violence, language, and some crude and sexual material. Parents will need to guide their children. Some kids shouldn’t see this movie, while others will be just fine.
Sexual Content: Moderate
- A beautiful college student has her eye on Sam, she tries every way possible to seduce him, and she makes suggestive comments, while wearing a seductive outfit.
- When Sam goes to college he and Mikaela talk about internet dates, and again they make suggestive comments, hoping for an x-rated date.
- Women dress seductively at a college party. The characters make crass references.
Violent Content: Excessive
- There is a lot of violence. At one point Sam is held down on a table and told he’ll die a slow painful death.
- The film has a lot of guns, explosions and fights; all with complete mayhem.
Crude or Profane Language: Excessive
- Swearing throughout the film; s-word, a-word and d-word used a lot. There are many variants of the f-word too, such as “freakin,” and “frick.”
Drug and Alcohol Content: Moderate
- Characters drink beer and wine. Another character has drug-laced brownies.
Overall it’s an action packed movie that most boys ages 11 to 50 year olds will love. My boys and their friends were still talking about the movie the next day. It’s suspenseful with humorous parts and likable characters. I give it 4 buckets, but my boys wanted me to give it 5 buckets.
