Fun Movie For Transformers Toys Fans

Rating: 9/10 (27 May 2018)

Good and evil alien robots that have the ability to transform into other mechanical objects come to Earth seeking a powerful artifact that can bring life or destruction. Shia LaBeouf, who plays a teen who unwittingly owns an object that has a clue to the whereabouts of the valuable artifact, finds himself in the middle of a war between the Autobots (good Transformers) and the Decepticons (evil Transformers) when he buys a used Camaro that turns out to be an Autobot named Bumblebee.
My most memorable, movie moment of "Transformers" is the scene when Megan Fox (the love interest of LaBeouf) asks why Bumblebee, with all his alien robot technology, would transform into an old, piece of crap Camaro. Bumblebee comes to a sudden halt, throws out LaBeouf and Fox, and speeds off.
There are many who are not fans of Michael Bay. I think most are in the category of film snobs. Michael Bay is great at what he does: make fast-paced, action movies that have a dramatic, driving score that accentuates the numerous fleeting but highly dramatic moments. Realism is not his forte; but when it comes to dramatic spectacle, there are very few who can rival Bay. He has made "Transformers" not just about robots fighting humans fighting robots; it's also about a boy's taste of freedom when he finally gets his first car and the opportunities it opens up with the girls. With all the outrageous, action sequences and amazing special effects, what really connected me to this movie is the love LaBeouf has for his car - you really have to be a guy to understand this.
