Transformers 2
I thouroughly enjoyed this movie, and I thought it was Michael Bay at his best. Bay is not known for crafting movies with a cohesive plot and character development, he's known for explosions on the grandest of scales. Transformers 2 bypasses normal movie conventions and appeals directly to human's primal emotions. Seeing giant robots fight to the death while Megan Fox runs in slow motion is clearly a different form of cinemateque.
It's a terrible movie in the normal sense, but treat the movie the way I do, like modern art. Bay just directed the MoMA of movies.
Funny People
Garbage. There were a few funny points and the last half of the movie was a complete drag. Apatow's movie was doomed from the start because two of his main characters were an over the hill comedian and a failed actress. Clearly, no one was suppose to actually enjoy this movie. However, Eric Bana was a nice surprise as his humor successfully quelled my urge to strangle myself rather watch the end of the movie.
I'll come out with the rest later
