Too much fun. Well worth the time.

Rating: 9/10 (8 July 2007)

Transformers is fun, entertaining and worth watching. You might read some other reviews that slam the movie for being more of a Sci-Fi-action-comedy rather than a pure Sci-Fi flick. Transformers was never a sci-fi series to begin with, but rather a vehicle (no pun intended) to sell merchandise.
The hardcore fan might not like this film because it does poke fun at it's self, which gives it great character. We are talking about robots that can transform into cars, planes and other machines. The real science is pretty much out the window so no need to be a hardcore geek about it - It's not a Carl Sagan novel.
If your in the mood to be entertained for a couple of hours this movie delivers. Special effects are the best on most complex I have seen. The characters are fun and you really get to like the main human character.
As for the Transformers themselves the film makers kept their campy dialog from the animated 80's series. Also the robots have a personality and comes across pretty well, especially bumble bee.
If your a hardcore Trans-nerd avoid this movie. If your a general movie goer than go watch it.
