Bayformers!!!!....Less Than Meets The Eye!!!!

Rating: 1/10 (24 July 2007)

I really can't even begin to talk of the many flaws of this crappy film. Let's put ILM's incredible CGI to one side and focus on this filthy film.
The comedy...what comedy? They tried so hard to make me laugh and put as many jokes in a scene that it was painfully un-funny. Every character was highly unrealistic and the 'comedic' tone was annoying and very forgettable. The racial stereotype jokes are dull, boring and tiresome. All in all, the comedy sucked.
The plot....we must find the ALL Spark and destroy it...that's it. No development of story of what the ALL Spark is, no twists during the film...NOTHING! Simply find the ALL Spark and destroy it before the Decepticons get it...pathetic! Who writes this trash??? There are many fans like me who could write a better script sitting on a toilet in two hours.
In general, the film was plain awful. Again, Bay's quick cutting and bad use of slo-mo was annoying and badly done. There were times where you couldn't even see what was happening. Also, in a film about TRANSFORMERS! There was little to no character development. Man, this film was just soooo bad. Shia Laboeuf annoyed me with his constant bickering and Megan Fox is one of the worst actors I've ever seen. Bay should not be allowed to make anymore movies and I hope Spielberg can come to save this franchise.
My biggest pain is that ILM's revolutionary creation of the robots had to be mixed in with a rubbish movie. If Spielberg or Cameron directed the movie with those SFX, we would have had ourselves a modern classic. Instead, we have an appalling 'blockbuster'.
