 1986... August 15, 2008
1986.. that version was much better than this! The transformers are american, the action scenes are american, the whole thing is american! Transfomers were brittish cars in the 1986 version! And the generation 1 series, nothing wrong with americanisum, just doesn't work with transformers!
 surprisingly enjoyable August 14, 2008
All i can say is, this is not the type of film i would usually go for, but i watched it with my boys and i was surprised that i actually liked it, its not fantastic in any way, other than the special effects but its a good action film with a relatively easy to follow storyline and even some funny moments, the only bad thing i would say about it is that its too long.
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. August 6, 2008
This film will blow your mind. One the action starts, it doesn't stop until the very end. The CGI is some of the best I've seen on film - everything looks so fluid and natural.
The story is somewhat predictable - boy meets girl, both overcome huge evil and fall in love. The script is good, but could have been better.
Overall, a great action film which will leave you gobsmacked.
Supoib! July 22, 2008

Great stuff! If you're a fan more I guess, but the other half loved it too and she swore blind she wouldn't.
It's true, the plot's probably a bit thin if you want to critique this on it's own merits but as a fan I thought it was top notch entertainment; great special fx and sound, and mind-blowing action scenes. And, for a big-screen "remake", it holds quite true to the Transformers history, a few modifications here and there, but nothing to spoil it.
The only let-down for me was the human cast getting more attention than either the Auotbots or Decepticons, with Megatron and Starscream (personalities they could have done so much with) barely getting any at all.
Still, it's a movie you can whack on and lose yourself for a few hours to time and time again.
Recommending!
Fast paced and played for laughs - don't think about the plot July 22, 2008
I am not usually a fan of "comic book" films - I find all that dark, self-indulgent angst so pretentious. Fortunately Transformers is not like that and I found it fun. It is fast paced and played mainly for laughs - which works well - but don't stop to think about the storyline (of course it doesn't make sense). There are problems with the film (cheesy script and two-dimensional characters), but in my view the fun of it makes up for that. The "big" ending is also a bit of a let down, confusing and the most powerful robot in the world - Megatron - is defeated slightly too easily. Never mind though, it's fine for all the family and, as I've said, FUN ! Better than your X-Men, Spiderman and Batman nonsense anyday.
