This film is more than meets the eye, that is for sure.

Rating: 10/10 (19 July 2007)

This film was a real pleasure to behold. Seeing my beloved childhood toys and favorite cartoon explode on the big screen in a way I never imagined was just way to cool. I never thought they could make a live action Transformers that could look so realistic, but they proved me wrong. The story, well it is the Autobots versus the Decepticons of course. Granted there is more to it than that as they are trying to get to this mysterious artifact called the cube before the other group. We also have a young youth in search of his first car, lots of humor and a lot of action as well. The only complaints I have are minor as I would have liked to have seen some of the Decepticons a bit more, as Starscream and Megatron are confined to the end of the film. However, I got to see Optimus Prime a good bit so I will not complain to much about that. The action is great in this movie, as we start off with one rather impressive attack on a military base that really sets up the movie with a bang. We then have numerous other scenes of the Decepticons trying to search for the whereabouts of the cube and Megatron who has a connection with the boy searching for his first car. We have a great scene involving a Decepticon cop car and Bumble Bee (one of the Autobots) and at the end all the ends tie together in one fierce battle in the middle of a city. Great fight and an impressive conclusion to this movie. So be prepared to watch one of the more fun and action packed movies of the summer as the Autobots fight the evil forces of the Decepticons.
