Yes it was but at the same time a 1 hit kill is pretty shit no matter what way you slice it. Devestator had a good transformation sequence and that was it, nothing but eyecandy for the rest of its appearence.

Good chance that eye candy was the point of the matter. And he 'cocked' the pyramid for Fallen.

True but given the power that the fallen was wielding by being able to take down multiple jets and tanks etc it probably wasn't even that necessary for devestator to be there at all.

Just seems they could have given it a far better role than it had, its like they made the decision to have it in the movie then realised they couldnt have it in the large scale battle due mainly to rendering time being increased ten fold. So this pyramid gun bs is pulled out of nowhere.

I see, but really: Devastator was always a reason to... devastate things.

He devastated a perfectly constructed pyramid. Not to mention a lot of people's expectations. That's enough.

This movie is currently the 10th highest grossing movie of all time. Might take ninth in a few.

Pulled out of nowhere?

The whole movie is about the Decepticons trying to unleash this huge, hidden power that they can't find. They find it and send in Devastator, a giant wrecking machine with tornado suction action, to uncover it. They then have Devastator get destroyed in pretty badass fashion with a deadly military weapon. Pretty awesome if you ask me.

In addition to that is the story about Agent Simmons, a fallen government official, now working for his mother, and his own rising from a great fall. He goes from deli worker to the guy who calls in the hit on Devastator, which is his minor-character story arc, also important to the story as it follows the theme of "rising up."

As far as the Fallen not needing him, I think the whole point was that the Fallen was biding his time to show up, making his minions do the dirty work for him. It's not like Hitler was killing the Jews himself; he had others do it for him. Same thing here. But when it came time to grasp the power, the Fallen wanted to be the one to do it.
