A very good version, but Micheal Bay?

Rating: 2/10 (16 July 2007)

The movie Transformers is this summers movie box office hit without a doubt. Its amazing to me still that Harry Potter can compete with this 80's toy/cartoon epic. As far adaptation goes this movie hit the mark..well as good as you can get it without ruining the story of how Transformers came to Earth in the first place. The action was even better. A little hard to tell the difference between some Decepticons and some Transformers transformed into entirely different things then its cartoon version, but who cares! For me , I would much rather see Megatron as a flying jet looking thing then have Micheal Bay, who directs this piece, defy physics and have Megatron transform into a hand held gun that any human can carry. Which brings me to my point why this movie with all its intense fighting and awesome screenplay adaptation, only gets a 9 out of 10. Micheal BAY. Micheal Bay is notorious for making great movies just good enough for the theaters and thats it. Micheal Bay has certain elements that appear in almost every one of his movies. He has cameos of a comedic nature, usually done by a black guy or foreigner and there almost never THAT funny. For example Eddie Griffen in Armegedon and Bernie Mac in Transformers He uses the same shots as he does in other movies, for example the 360 pan-around shot in Bad Boys 2 Pearl Harbor, and now Transformers. Point is this. If you were a fan. You'll love this movie as it is authentic, If you don't like Micheal Bay because of his cheese!!! But like Transformers as a kid...well then you'll give this movie a 9
