Megatron is completely dead, but he cannot fully pass on to the afterlife (i.e. - join with the Allspark) because of the Dark Energon that once flowed through his veins binds him to Unicron's "Anti-Spark". I guess he's just stuck in a state of limbo, then.

Megatron and Unicron occupy the same mind space within the same body.
And Soundwave. Holy smoke, Soundwave was completely missing from this movie!
Yish, addressing spoilers out of context makes my head hurt. My thoughts are pretty much the same, but I wanted to call these particulars out
1&2 go together so here goes:
If Megatron is dead and can't go to the all-spark, making him go to Unicron instead, A) is he in "Limbo" (Like we really need another region of not-space for that word...) or in a Unicron based Allspark? Does this in a roundabout way show what the Cybertronian allspark looks like? A bunch of Cybertronians walking around the body of a sleeping god talking to each other? Cause to this point its always sounded more like a mixing pot and one's distinctiveness tends to fade.
And to that same point, we've killed a lot of Dark Energon infused cybertronians already. Vehicons, mostly, although Prime tends to handle those more like spark bearing Cybertronians in matching uniforms than anything else. But if they're dead, and we kiled poor Cliffy back in Season 1 with Energon breath, why doesn't he get drawn to Unicron? And if Skyquake expires in the Shadowzone, what about his spark, will he return to Unicron? He did have a lifesign, as did Cliffjumper, the Autobots tracked him same way they did Megs in the movie.
3)Matter of debate, but since Soundwave was Shadowzoned, does he stay on the Nemesis doomed to forever stalk its halls or is he drawn to Earth since its a big honkin' space object with its own pan-dimensional gravitational pull? Ifd the latter, did poor Sounwave have the Nemesis pulled through him? Either way, I suspect if anyone could restart the war, it'd be him, and its propbably n the Autobots best interests to NOT go back for him, but sureley they know he's still alive, at least until he runs out of Energon and is forced to power down.
