How racist and sexist is the new Transformers movie?

I heard it's ridiculous. There are even subtle criticisms of Obama in the movie. Supposedly, it's blatant.



I also heard that it's one of the worst movies ever made. The fight scenes are supposedly ridiculously horrible.

But thanks for the links; they're a real eye opener and provide even more reasons to stay away from the sequel.



Cheers for that ;)How racist and sexist is the new Transformers movie?
Yeah I noticed all of those things in the movie. Like, they wouldn't say his actual name until later in the movie, but they would say things like the president said this and the president commanded that which kinda made it look like he was making bad decisions.



The racist criticisms mostly come from two robots who use a lot of slang, and constantly fight, and they just happened to sound black.



The fight scenes were ok, they just really gave me a headache. I can't imagine seeing the movie in IMAX :P



Overall though I was disappointed and I can understand the bad critiques of it.



Edi: oh yeah and I usually love action movies and I liked the first movie, but this one was just disappointingHow racist and sexist is the new Transformers movie?I'd suggest that the sexism in Transformers ROTF is worse than any racism because it's more 'hard-coded' as it were.



There are only two female human characters in this film - one is the Mom (a very good comic performance from Julie White) and the other is the girlfriend (defined almost entirely by her sex appeal, regardless of her skills as a mechanic). These are their roles and they are given no real chance to expand or develop on them - this would be fine if there were other realistic yet strong roles for women in the story. But the story does not enable this and even if it did, the women would have to conform to Hollywood's 'beauty' standards. It is pretty much unacceptable for women to be not conventionally attractive in this kind of story/film and have any significance at all. Guys even talk about Sam's Mom as a MILF, predictably.



The other girls we see are the stereotypical attractive college girls in Sam's huge Astronomy 101 class and the party. It just doesn't seem realistic and giant robots aside, believability is their aim.



But most big blockbusters suffer from the same problem, and no doubt the producer/writer area of this genre's industry are male-dominated so until that changes it will continue.



Next to all that, the derogative use of terms like b111tch and pu55y don't even seem that big a deal.How racist and sexist is the new Transformers movie?

OMG!! Someone has attempted to defame the Great Messiah! The Messenger has been insulted! Quick, to the constitution! We must remove rights so this will never happen again!
