Transformers, little disappointing

Rating: 6/10 (5 July 2007)

I have been a huge transformers fan for as long as I can remember. I was a little skeptic going to see this movie, one because it is rated PG-13 even though the Transformers Movie 1986 was PG and the fact that Michael Bay directed, more known for his action sequences and emphasis on effects(which worked for this) not storyline. The storyline could have been better, should of focused more on the transformer characters rather then the humans. The one reason I gave this a 6 is because of the language. I took my 9 yr old to see it even though it is pg13 transformers is suppose to be for everybody there toy & TV series market does target kids 5+. I don't mind the occasional S..t here or there with him, he knows the difference between right/wrong. But having a transformer "frenzy" say it that kind of crossed the line and with the corny bumble bee air freshener with Bee-och. There was way to much sexual references, talking about masturbation and throwing in Mother .... than a sound effect. Come on if you are going to put a Hasbro name in the credits then make it PG and no need for the sexual references. Look at Star Wars the greatest original trilogy of all time. Lucas never put any of that crap into his movies and transformers to me should be in the same class of movies. If I wanted bad language, sex & cars then I would go see bad boys. The performance from Shia LaBeouf was excellent he played a good spike.
