High Concept film 2009 Transformers 2

Transformers 2 which is a Michael Bay Film seems to follow this 10 part High Concept Model. First of all it does have a sense of "post generic" film-making because at one point it an action film, next it is a comedy so it does mix genres really well. It uses extended montages in Transformers especially during th battle scene in Egypt when it goes from showing a number of Military Aircraft, from planes to tanks to infantry. It has a frequent representation of reflecting the graphics because you look at the some of the high special effect scenes in Transformers they look so realistic that it fits to this each shot looks like a "million dollars". Frequently during the trailer scenes are replicated, especially the Egypt and Shanghai battle scenes to try and make it look as acton packed as possible. The action is very exaggerated and intense in transformers massive explosions, big firefights. Music does interrupt the ilm especially during Egypt battle scene as they try to intensify the action with music. There are some references to films in Transformers especially at the end when the refrence towards Gunfight at O.K Coral is made. There is a detached appearance of stars in Transformers with Megan Fox who is made to look how she is real life 'attractive' and even in battle scenes she is dressed nice and looking attractive, playing on the female role.
