Transformers 2 opinion

There is a website called metacritic were you can look at various reviews of movies, TV, books, music, and video games. What's cool about the site is that it shows a score of many different well known sources and than it averages them out, so you can see the average opinion as well as how mixed the opinions are.
Anyway the reviews were generally negative and I heard that one of the reasons that critics didn't like it is that they felt it didn't have any storyline, they may have a point but my response to that opinion is "so what if it doesn't."
Transformers in my opinions if the sort of movie that doesn't really need a great storyline or fantastic acting, it's the kind of movie that needs action and cool affects and that's what it had and you shouldn't have expected that much more.
Although I also believe if there was a movie that had the special affects and action of transformers and a well developed storyline that kept you guessing it would be the most awesome movie of the year.
Peter Travers of Rolling Stone magazine gave it 0/4 stars and said "Transformers 2 has a shot at the title Worst Movie of the Decade."
I highly doubt that this could possibly be the worst movie of the decade, in my opinion it falls somewhere between fair and good.
