Transformers- all style no substance

Rating: 4/10 (10 November 2007)

This has to be one of the most disappointing films I have seen this year. I had heard some really bad reviews for transformers but I went to see it anyway. Boy did I regret it. First of all the script was very weak. Secondly there was no heart in it, the Megan Fox/ Shia Lebeouf love story had potential but was under used. Thirdly they should have just focused on one city rather than show the transformers turning up in Iraq too (I think it was Iraq but not sure). It was all a bit disjointed.
Now onto the positives(actually I mean positive). The transformers looked really cool and there were one to two good action sequences.To me Transformers just looked like a barrage of action sequences put hazily together with no soul in it. Miss this one, there are better summer blockbusters to watch, like for instance Live free and Die hard.
