It's been out nearly a week now, and not a single person's talked about it yet here, which I find...interesting.
Rottentomatoes gives it around a 20%. According to Paramount's exit polls, 91% considered it equal to or better than the first. Obviously this isn't a valid survey, as they may be wording their poll to produce those numbers. The few people I know enjoyed the movie completely. It begs the question:
What exactly are critics expecting when they head into a summer blockbuster like this? Most say that there isn't enough plot, too much mayhem going on, or there really isn't much plot concerning humans. So what would make this better in their eyes? Robot relationships? Diplomatic relations between robots instead of fighting? Tons of dialogue discussing robot feelings with witty, intelligent observations of the world?
After reading a local paper's preview of coming summer movies, I can only assume that alot of these critics opinions are tainted by reading what other critics have said, or what they think other critics will think. I also think they look at who's involved in the movie (Bay in this case,) and automatically go into it with a mental block on actually objectively judging it.
So what's the opinion here?

Megan Fox is insanely, absolutely, indisputably hot.
