Perfect Summer Popcorn film

Rating: 8/10 (10 July 2007)

For the people who forgot that summer for movies were about the big action blockbusters. Not the academy award winning movies of the winter. I went in to transformers thinking it was gonna be good or just plain ole crap. It was very good. This summer was a disappointment for blockbusters. For god sake die hard 4 is considered good after having to sit through the cheesy mindless spiderman 3 or the pirates of the Caribbean 3: when time stops. This movie embraces everything the old summer movies use to achieve. I was also glad to see they went the independence day route and what i mean by that is that they did not go out and spend tons of money on big stars who are set in their ways. Remember when independence day came out will smith was still just the fresh prince. I hope they go on to a sequel and preferablly and adaptation to the original cartoon movie if thats even possible.
