Rating: 7/10 (25 October 2007)

The running time of this long film is 143 minutes,including 8 minutes of credits, approx. 20 minutes of story exposition & the remaining (almost 2 hours) is special effects.
At least that is what it seemed like to me.
Apparently there was an animated version made in the 1980's (I never saw it. This fact I did not know or remember until I read it on IMDb.
As I was watching the movie, I was thinking,it would have been better if it was an animated film.
Shia LeBeouf is our young hero & he is great, I raved about him a few weeks back in DISTURBIA... This lad will become a big star..
The only other name actors in the film are Jon Voight & John Turturro. They give there usual clichéd performances. Jon Voight used to be a darn good looking & talented actor, WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM.
As usual in these type films our hero must have a girl friend involved. This time is Megan Fox.(no comment on her talent).
The special effects are first rate,more than likely it will win the special effect Oscar.
The script is very juvenile & the director Micheal Bay knows how to use the Blue Screen to its best advantage.
