The Fallen Has Risen

TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN did it!!!
wew!! after 2 years of waiting for the sequel of Transformers, it finally came out! And even much better!!! Everything are well-made, fantastic and superb. The best in here are the fight scenes, it's so extreme and pulse-breaking. Also the jokes are too funny, we laugh out loud with their jokes. And finally, Megan Fox is so hot, even in all angles, she is so cool.
The film opens with Optimus Prime narrated that in the ancient times, there are Transformers, they are working with the Sun Harvester and fight humans. The fallen is focused in that scene strangling humans. Then after that, the film return in the present times, in Shanghai where the Autobots will defeat Demolisher and Sideways. Together with Prime, Skids, Mudflap, Sideswipe, Arcee, Chromia and Ironhide, they defeated the two. Then after the transition, Sam is going college, when he enters on his dorm, he met Leo, that he became a friend in the film. Meanwhile, Sam called Mikaela, during their conversation, something fell on the floor which is the AllSpark, when he picks up the item, several ancient text flashed in his mind and had a mental breakdown, writing symbols in his Astronomy class and in his dorm. Then, he met Alice, the Pretender Decepticon. Alice then enters the room, seducing Sam, and Sam enters his car, Bumblebee together with Alice. Then, Bumblebee knows that Alice is a Decepticon so, he destructs Alice buggling her seat, sprinkling something and snowy radio music. After that, Alice leaves the car and then Sam went to Prime then Scalpel, a Decepticon doctor, prepares to remove Sam's brain, but Optimus and Bumblebee appear and rescue him. In the following battle, Optimus takes on the Decepticons on his own, killing Grindor, however, he is ultimately killed himself, stabbed from behind by Megatron.

Megatron orders a full-scale assault on the planet. The Fallen speaks to the world and advises them to surrender Sam to the Decepticons or they'll continue their attack. Sam's parents are captured by Rampage. Sam, Mikaela, Leo, Bumblebee, the twins and Wheelie regroup, Leo believing his online rival "RoboWarrior" may be of assistance. The man is revealed to be former Sector Seven agent Simmons. Simmons reveals his hidden alien archive and explains that the Transformers have visited Earth before, as their language is written on ruins all over the world. Wheelie identifies the language as that of the Primes but only a Seeker can translate it; Seekers being used by the Primes to locate suitable stars for harvesting. They find such a Seeker, a former Decepticon named Jetfire, who Sam is able to revive using the second shard.

Upon learning the situation, Jetfire teleports the group to Egypt via a space bridge and explains that the tomb of the Primes is located in the surrounding desert, and only a Prime can kill the Fallen. He then stays behind to allow them to find it. By following the clues, the group find the Matrix in a tomb in the ancient city of Petra, but it crumbles to dust in Sam's hands. Believing the Matrix can still revive Optimus, Sam collects the dust and instructs Simmons to telephone Major William Lennox to bring the other Autobots and Optimus's body.

The military arrives in short order, but are tracked by the Decepticons, resulting in an intense battle. During the battle, Bumblebee rescues Sam's parents from Rampage, killing both him and Ravage in the process. Devastator is then formed and unearths the Sun Harvester in one of Egypt's pyramids before being blown to pieces by a railgun fired from a nearby destroyer called in by Simmons. Jetfire arrives in time to save the group from Mixmaster, slicing the Decepticon in two. He is then attacked by Scorponok from beneath the ground and badly damaged but manages to crush and kill Scorponok. The air force carpet bombs the Decepticons. Megatron gets through the carpet bombing and kills Sam. In a vision, Sam meets with the other Primes, who tell him that the Matrix of Leadership must be earned, which Sam has done. Sam is brought back to life and the Matrix reforms from the dust. Sam uses it to revive Optimus, but the Fallen, with aid from Megatron, steals it shortly thereafter to activate the Sun Harvester. The human military tries to stop him but are powerless against him. Jetfire, having been mortally wounded by Scorponok, gives up his life and parts to give Optimus the strength he needs to defeat the Fallen. Optimus destroys the Sun Harvester and then fights both Megatron and the Fallen, brutally destroying the Fallen, and Optimus claiming that "I rise, you fall". And leaving Megatron heavily wounded. Starscream convinces Megatron to retreat.

The film concludes with Optimus stating that the Transformers and humans are now connected by their histories and Sam returning to college.

I want to watch it over and over again. As my advice, DONT TRUST SOME CRITICS SAYING THAT THE FILM IS NOT GOOD. WATCH IT BY YOURSELF AND JUDGE IF THE FILM IS GOOD OR BAD. FOR ME IS FANTASTIC AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THE FILM. Overall I recommend this film highly.
