Wow! Outstanding Action adaptation of Retro Cartoon.

Rating: 10/10 (1 August 2007)

I watched the original cartoons as child in the 1980's and i was always hooked. When I heard that there was going to be a big screen movie based on the cartoon I thought dreams had been granted.
This movie ticked all the correct boxes. Great action sequences, effects, story, music and laughs as well. There were so many moments that stood out and the comedy also enhanced the film.
I thought it was a surprise that Shia LeBouf had been cast as the lead character, all i could remember watching him in the children's programme Even Stevens. I did not expect him to pull off his role, he did not look like the stereotypical hero, he excelled and handle the delivery of his lines superbly, especially one liners. A brave and well casted. Well done Shia.
Everyone will enjoy the film, it has everything for everyone and the pace is well suited. An awesome and well executed piece of work from Michael Bay.
