英語(yǔ)時(shí)差:「喧賓奪主」的變形金剛
While we were just expecting to see a box-office hit that rested solely on the success of the first movie—after all, it is a sequel—there are some surprises in "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen." Once again the Decepticons are trying to destroy the world, while the Autobots are cooperating with the humans. The Decepticons are after some silver shards with special powers. Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) happens to have one of the shards from his adventures in the previous movie. "LaBeouf gets little chance to show what charm he might have. Meanwhile, Megan Fox has little to do except look great in a tank top and tight jeans while running in slow motion through flying sand," said Ray Bennet from the Hollywood Reporter on the matter of the lead role actors that are basically not carrying the film. "The true stars here are the Transformers themselves, who continually steal the spotlight from the flesh-and-blood cast, even in scenes of tragic death or comic relief usually reserved for real actors," explained Jordan Mintzer from Variety. Michael Bay clearly realized that for the sequel to Transformers, he needed more than just action scenes and showing off how cool they look when Transformers transform. It is the Transformers themselves, however, that still limit the capabilities of the movie, which seems to have more potential than it uses.
