Are you not entertained???
2 July 2009
Some of the charms in the first movie are lost in the sequel. But overall this is an entertaining pop-corn movie, more budget and more special effects. You wont mind to pay extra money for that, because it is worth. The robots in the sequel are more humanize, more active, more naughty. Personally I dun like it. In the first movie, they were much more cool and charming. Anyway, Michael Bay,who usually do not care about character development and plot details, make another success attempt to give us an exciting Summer Blockbuster action movie. Explosion, robots, special effects, MeganFox, Shia LaBeouf and Josh Duhamel.... What else can you ask for??? Are you not entertained? Is this not why you are here???

A great story and face-pace movie, but lack of excellent cinematography and editing
2 April 2009
Another inspiring and meaningful movie directed by Derek Yee, he still intends to educate his audience after the success of "Protege" The story of the movie is very very good indeed. 10years of planning in pre-pro gives Derek Yee a solid script, but he tends to inject too many incidents and characters to the movie. Which is why, he didn't actually put all his effort into every scenes. I cannot really recognize his style in this movie, but of course he is still very focusing on the message of the story. No action and stunts by Jackie Chan, which is...quite weird for me....but we all gotta try to accept him...maybe give him a chance. Another fantastic performance by Daniel Wu, always maintain his own acting style while he has already possessed to his character. "Shinjuku Incident" is a movie that is worth for a watch, if you are not looking for an excellent cinematography and editing aspects.
