Transformers Revenge of The Fallen

Outstanding. Talk about a fast paced action film!
The Transformers cinematic franchise director Michael Bay’s live action adaptations of the cartoon series about battling skyscraper sized robots who can mutate into anything mechanical. The 3d effects were just amazing, it must have taken forever to develope this film. The storyline is great even if you've never seen the first Transformer film. Now this time Decepticon forces return to Earth on a mission to take Sam Witwicky prisoner, after the young hero learns the truth about the ancient origins of the Transformers. Joining the mission to protect humankind is Optimus Prime, who forms an alliance with international armies for a second epic battle. Shia LaBeouf (who plays Sam)is a up and coming star and did great in this film. Also Megan Fox (who plays Mikaela)is in it which all the men love watching, sure she's really pretty but from what i hear on blogs she's really a biatch in real life or should i say a very arrogant young lady. But let's ignore that for now. The battle scenes are a little long in some spots but they keep you enthralled.

Film Locations:
Now the begining of the film is shot on Queensway Bridge and Shoreline Drive in Long Beach, California.
Now the college scenes were filmed at the University of Pennsylvania and Princeton University.
Holloman Air Force Base and White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico which stood in for Egypt in this film.
Tucson International Airport and the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group's aircraft boneyard.
Also Camp Pendleton and Davis-Monthan Air Force Base.
They even shot for three days in Egypt itself, at the Giza pyramid complex and Luxor. Four days were then spent in Jordan; the Royal Jordanian Air Force aided in filming at Petra, Wadi Rum and Salt.
Place de la Concorde in Paris, with shots of the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe. Then finished on the aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis.

Now my fav car is in this film the 2009 Camaro!

Now I have been informed that these little toys are really beneficial to children with Autism. My nephew has Autism and plays for hours with these transformer toys, they really are intriqued by them and will constantly open and close them all up. So if your looking for a great toy for children with Autism this would be it.

ArtistGirl's: definately worth watching!
