Loud, obnoxious

Rating: 1/10 (27 February 2010)

The idea of a Transformer film isn't really such a bad one. There's so much potential for eye-popping action and there's a cool sci-fi element to the franchise. I remember the cartoon and the toys. I kinda liked them. This could be alright! Whoops, Michael Bay directed it? Oh well, forget any hopes.
Seriously though, there is absolutely no substance whatsoever. I'm not expecting The Godfather, but I'm expecting a film that's entertaining beyond robots fighting and things blowing up. I mean, it tries to pass cheesy jokes and bad references as some sort of charm. And I don't care about Shia LeBeouf or his love interest... who doesn't do anything. Hooray for strong female characters. I can't even remember their names.
Really, absolutely awful.
