This movie is alright....

Rating: 8/10 (7 July 2007)

Maybe I was expecting too much, having grown up with Transformers and then they vanished only to reappear in the 90's. I'll keep my comments brief.
1 - The plot is good, keeping with the current story ideas/plots of the cartoons. It doesn't pull the story from the 'toon, if it I had would have been severely disappointed but it take the idea of these modern day Transformers and expands that into a movie. For that, I can only give it an "A".
2 - I found the special effects (particularly the transformation) to be way too much. There is only one scene that really shows these guys transforming. Everything else is a blur of metal and gizmos that take away from the picture. Because of this, I have to give the movie and overall "B+"
