I consider Roger Ebert to be an excellent movie critic. His reviews have caused me to rent many a film – and I’ve enjoyed nearly all of them as much as he did in his reviews. Recently, however, he crapped all over Transformers 2. I saw the movie over the weekend and enjoyed it very much. It had everything I expected to see; huge robots, explosions, *ahem* Megan Fox *ahem*, slow-motion galore, and quick-witted humor. I have no idea what he was expecting to see when he saw the film – but it obviously wasn’t what he saw. Pity.
Ebert and I wholly disagree about Transformers 2

I’ve read a lot of critics crapping all over it. I’ve read just as many audience members saying that they had a great time. The divide between critics and general public is widening, no? Very interesting to watch.
