Well, i guess you guys must ve seen the petrol cum robot-head movie. The extravaganza of GM got me thinking that it might actually be a giant and expensive ad to resurrect the ailing auto-giant. Nonetheless, the graphics were of a different planet, thanks to ILM, each transformation was frighteningly real, especially the arrival of the autobots. The Saleen S281 Mustang or 'Barricade' was the lone participant from the blue oval, and in front of the Camaro concept or 'Bumblebee', we were reminded of the ol' Chev-no-lay and Fo-No-Go battle all over again. That said, one helluva movie.

Its Sucked. The only film worse than Pirates 3 this year.

There is only 1 transformers the Movie and that is the orginal.

Sorry touched a nerve.

I know airlines completely mutilate films, but did they throw out all the bits with Megan Fox?

You still got to see a lot. I woke just in time to see her looking under the hood of the car.

Everybody in the US loved it. I didn't watch it because it wasn't related to the cartoon at all.

I saw the original movie... cried when I was a kid. Saw it a couple a years ago and thought it totally sucked.

Are you really? Sorry dude, but if you were, you would nt been that blunt. Here's a tip-Dont link it to F1! Well, i guess we have our opinions, but to spend 38hrs per frame to make the scenes realistic requires something. Excellent work by ILM.

I only watched it for the special effects which was excellent. I still thought Die Hard 4 was a better movie

I totally agree and would go even futher to say I can't remember seeing such a bad movie for years.

And the special effects. Bla!.. in the whole movie there was only one or two transformations which were fully visible. All of the others were blurs which moved out of camera shot. Nothing special at all to see. The FX were average at best by today's standards.

The director, Michael Bay, has made film after film which have been crap. Only Pearl Harbour and The Island were remotely good and even then, only just.

I didn't bother to watch the movie (never liked all that superhero stuff), but after reading this thread I wanted to watch the FX out of interest and stumled on this review. Enjoy

The new speed racer trailer came out, looks pretty bad. I Still can not believe it came from the same creators/producers/directors of the Matrix trilogy.
