Transformers (2007) - I Bought a Car That Turned Out to Be an Alien Robot! Who Knew?

Rating: 7/10 (28 September 2011)

Michael Bay brings the classic Hasbro toy collection "Transformers" to the big screen. The only plot this movie contains is just a bunch of walking and talking robots, battling and fighting, and the only necessary plot is action, duh! "Transformers" is a movie that is expressed in both positive and negative reactions. Negative thoughts - Michael Bay brought too much for this movie, turning him into a terrible director. The action was too much for me, the cinematography is too fast, the editing is annoying, and the script is stupid and unrealistic. Positive thoughts - Shia LaBeouf, although he acts like a jerk throughout, he still makes a pretty good performance. Megan Fox did alright in her performance in this movie, but she and LaBeouf don't really show a lot of chemistry between them. The sound is dazzling, the visual effects are astounding, some moments were funny, some members of the cast I liked, and the Optimus Prime character was powerful and enjoying. Now, I'm not saying that "Transformers" is either the greatest or the worst movie ever made. It's an alright movie with too much action and way less story, but it sometimes manages to thrill you, even though it's mostly annoying. Besides that, it's a movie that is perfect summer entertainment for your kids, and I thought it was pleasant, in a both enjoying and annoying way. "Transformers", in my review, "sometimes annoying, but it's mildly enjoying".
