great summer movie !!!

Rating: 9/10 (9 July 2007)

Just got back from a matinée and WOW, what a great summer action flick...I never had Transformer toys, I was a child of the 70's, but loved this movie...It had great action (it is Michael Bay), also had lots of great comedy moments, plus an interesting story, but never seemed too much, I actually wanted more...I thought the potential love story didn't go overboard and acting was superb... Megan Fox as a newcomer was cast perfectly, a model that can also act and do action scenes...I graduated from film school and really thought they did a great job with all the production elements..Praise to Josh Duhamel for doing a great job, he is after all from my hometown !!! The pace of the film was very fast, but it is after all an action film, so it felt like very good pacing...I do wish there was more to the characters of Maggie, but then the film would have been too long..It definitely was "more than meets my eye"
